People are animals.
True.:107 (87.0%)
False. :2 (1.6%)
No way, we eat animals. :6 (4.9%)
You might be, but I'm sure as hell not, you ***.:8 (6.5%)
Total:123
Answer this, then read the next piece.




I work in a ************* hospital, and five out of seven people not only answered it wrong, but got combative and insisted they were right.

I got CC'd on an email in which some marketeer actually used the line, "Remember, there's no "I" in "team"!

Should I send the response I so want to send?

True, there is no "I" in "team". However there is an "eat" and a "me".

yes.

Also animal can be used to refer to non-humans only, it's generally the second definition in the list. It's also probably the more commonly used definition.

Yeah, yeah. Your choices are animal, vegetable or mineral. While I do know some people I'd categorize in one of the latter two choices, the first is generally understood to be factually correct.

Taxonomically, at least.

This reminds me of the 'evolution' South Park episode where Mr. Garrison craps in his hand and throws it at the guest teacher.

Not bad, though I prefer "True, but there's a "u" in Cunt!"

Based off the poll results, perhaps you should just be focusing your lost faith on your fellow employees.

How was it said? Stating it as people were part of the animal kingdom? Or just saying "people are animals" which can be taken the more negative way?

Might not be them disagreeing so much as taking it the wrong way?

Speaking of losing faith in humanity, what's up with Mathieu Crepel's ironic moustache? (see #7)If Red starts sporting one, well, we'll have to find someone to ********* him.
