As usual I respond to statements completely irrelevant to the topic at hand.
Never mind me. Nothing to see here. 😕

What do you think about teeth, are your canines pointy, and do you use them for anything outside cleaning a thumbnail or scratching a knuckle? I think they're good bridge anchors too, for those who are losing their teeth.

1) The meat industry is sickening. Small cages, rampant disease and injury, meat full of antibiotics and other mysterious chemicals, genetic manipulation, neglect, and abusive deaths.

2) People who eat meat are 50% more likely to develop heart disease, higher cholesterol levels, higher cases of hypertension, higher levels of prostate and other cancers, hi ...[text shortened]... rrible for the environment. I'll list examples once I laugh at the hate I'll end up reading 🙂
"Vegetarians and vegans on average live 6 to 10 times longer than meat eaters". So that is Methuselah's secret.

No, can't say I use dogs for any of those things. And: Pointy? Bridge anchors? 😛

They're the stablest teeth in the mouth and make it easier to tear meat off the bone. Think for a second about someone biting a chicken drumstick... what part of the mouth would they use?

Honestly? Personally, I bite with the incisors, and chew with the molars. I
never use my do... canines. 😕

Except for when I'm out in the forest hunting rabbits, of course. As soon
as I catch them with my clumsy hands, I bite down hard to insert my
canines as deep into their necks as possible to help hold them in place
until they give up fighting back. I may also ravishingly shake my head to
disorient them and tear them up as much as possible.

But other than that, I don't use my canines much, no.

No. 😀

I'm just saying that the way nature is intercorrelated it's impossible to avoid affecting most other species altogether.

I don't care if you do or not, but you're going to get other species killed one way or the other.

Maybe I eat funny, but if something's particularly tough or meaty and I'm too damn lazy to use cutlery I'll make the first bite slightly to the side, the canines making it slightly easier to make that first tear.

Sure, but she meant avoiding cows such that they are unable to harm her physically in a immediate and direct way.

Of course you may argue that cows farts will lead us all to our doom, but I'm sure that even you'll agree that the solution isn't probably rounding up some cows and killing them, but more long-term planning of breeding.

Excuse me, I confused "Incisor" with "Cuspid".

Now that the name of the tooth is clear, maybe you can actually answer the post in it's entirety, rather than picking out a minor error, and focusing on it.
Minor error??? lol I think not, Sir. But nice try.

Why is it that whenever someone presents intelligent, clear and focused
arguments, that person is automatically assumed to have a penis? 😕
