| gross, there's a hair in my human meat! |
Charlton Heston got off easy....
apparently some couple in brazil has been luring people to their homes (by advertising for a nanny position)... killing them... then making empanadas out of them.... then selling them to their neighbors....
well then.
i felt two things when i read this. 1)obviously 'the empanadas are people!!!!'
and 2) damn... i liked empanadas.. i will probably never eat another one again.... is there a faster way to get turned off a food by thinking its made of human flesh? <edit: 3) yeah, this is a super heinous crime.. actually that was probably #1... then heston.... then how i can never eat empanadas again)>
billy bob, we've discussed extensively on how cannibals are more terrifying than zombies... being one of them by accident, even if prepared with a juicy gravy and encased in a sweet flaky pastry, with a side of sriracha sauce... mmmmm
wait,, what was i talking about?.. oh yeah, cannibalism is bad.
if you read the story, you will see that the accidental cannibal neighbors burned the house down of the accused murderers/experimental chefs... i never thought i'd ever consider burning someones house down as a reasonable reaction to something... yet here we are.
they should have hired out the people of walnut grove. those people know how to demolish a neighborhood home.
This post is just off the charts... soylent green, zombies, little house, flesh Empanadas... i laughed, i cried, i hurled.
ReplyDeleteThis was a great post...even though I can't see any of the video because of my goddamn work firewall. But anytime you can work in that clip from Soylent Green you have to do it.
ReplyDeleteIn regard to cannibalism - the scary part is not eating human meat. If I was involved in the real-life situations depicted in 'Alive' or in the book "in the Heart of the Sea"..I'm chowing down on some human meat. The scary part is GETTING eaten/hunted..or, as we saw in "The Road", harvested for parts (just thinking about that scene is freaking me out again).
Point being, if I found out I had unwittingly eaten some delicious human empanadas, sure, I'd be pretty grossed out and might even hurl. But there is no way it would weigh on my conscience. The really scary thing is what if I LIKED it?? I mean, if suddenly the people at Super Pollo (who make this ridiculously good Peruvian seasoned chicken) told me I was actually eating Peruvians..would I be more horrified that Super Pollo was people or freaking out I couldn't eat Peruvians anymore? I just don't know.
to paraphrase zack morris, "the crunchy part's the larynx!"
