Why are we kinder to our animals than we are our loved ones? Why is it illegal to end a life that really isn't?

Because people are complicated, loved ones aren't always loved. Family and insurance companies might try to say you were at the end when you weren't. Judging someone else's quality of life as not good enough could lead to voting them dead to get inheritance sooner or to get out of caring for them or paying for care. Government death panels or insurance death panels already decide you aren't worth the cost of some treatments families so far don't have the option.
Imagine your worst sibling deciding if you live or die or if your parent does.
Animals are pretty simple we kill them for almost no reason at all like a chicken dying for your dinner or a rooster for crowing too loud. Pets are a little harder to have killed but money hasn't got anything to do with the decision so simpler than people.

Are we?  We lock up animals because we don't feel like dealing with them anymore and if there are too many in some locations they just start killing them.  We also kill them for food, or fun, or we call it a sport.  We cage them up and make them perform for us against their will.  We treat people a LOT better than we treat animals.  You wouldn't want the standards we use for killing animals to become the new standard for people.

Some people I would.

I think we should have a choice. I know I don't want to pee in my shoes.

I'm probably going to lock and sanitize this thread in a day or so. Mainly because the plot thickened, or at least seemed to.

The head of the company supposedly stopped by the facility today, and it was his black BMW X6 sitting in front by the Valet parkers. There had always been rumours of the daughter, but never Dad.

Wasn't sure how to take that. And I kind a drove in all Optimist-like, so if he was in the courtyard chatting he might have seen me & my little red BMW roar in, just in time for my shift.   Census is back down, but it also looks like they did the first cut on paving the front of the new building.

I so need a vacation, funded by a rich man, involving islands... Did you know there are shit tons(ok some )

aspirational vacation food? I am currently eating a Vosges choc bar with Banana from Hawaii and coconut ash I think from Sri Lanka. Since it is summer Mango stuff is everywhere too. Generally too sweet for me unless its balanced with something else... Crap, I'm ending the food stories and taking a bath.  Santa Cruz Mango Lemonade, and to be tried - Matt's Munchies - Banana Coconut ... A natural trip to paradise!

Does anyone even know what this means??   

[zibazinski]

Not a clue. The only thing I got out of this was a dementia patient peed in his shoes and his wife lost it? Maybe?

[Shooby]

Well, I don't know what "aspirational vacation food" is.

[zibazinski]

I thought she lost her patience and he punched her. The thread was so disjointed or in code or something. It's made me wonder about drug use.

I can't follow at all.  There is a patient that pees on shoes, the big boss showed up and was driving a BMW which somehow relates to rumors about his daughter, the boss may have been impressed to see Opti also drives a BMW, and she is hungry for tropical food?

[zibazinski]

Could be

No worries, I created that phrase on the fly. The brand is Matt Munchies and they are on display in my local grocery stores.

The version I had was banana and coconut. And packaged so beautifully/anally you'd think it was created by a rich woman or a very buff gay man.

I'm glad it is confusing, as I will not post in this thread in the future.

There is a  patient. One of the things he has been doing is peeing on things, including his shoes.

The head of the company I work for allegedly drives a BMW per the person who parks cars on-site. He was allegedly physically there when I came in to work for a recent afternoon shift. He is the President of the company. His daughter is the VP.

Opti is hungry for 1) vacation  , 2) a break  , and 3) it would be nice if someone actually understood how warped this situation is besides one co-worker and I think a couple posters who are/were nurses.
