Do activists realize they come off as morons when they do these things?

A 19-year-old kid who works for PETA has legally changed his name to KentuckyFriedCruelty.com

The best part of the article is: "People don't believe me at first when I tell them my name, but it never fails to spark a discussion," Garnett, er, KentuckyFriedCruelty.com, said in a statement. "Many vow to boycott KFC after I explain the company's indifference to cruelty to animals."

I can't imagine anyone seriously doubts that these "discussions" are monologues that end when someone says "OK, OK, I'll boycott."

I don't understand why people do these things.

    Dammit, why couldn't you have written this post BEFORE I legally changed my name to JesusHatesMcDonalds.org? Now I feel like a fool.

    He's 19. He'll figure it out. When my sister was 19 and a foaming-at-the-mouth PETA devotee, she actually wore leather boots. My mother's boyfriend at the time put little sticky notes on each of them that said, "MOO MOO" and that shut her up for a good week.

    Just think how proud he'll be some day when they go to christen little KentuckyFriedChicken Junior!

Because of a recent ton of spam and weird insulting comments from a brand-new poster, I'm putting in comment moderation for a bit. I'm planning to do comment moderation "Ms. Kitty Style," as in, with a very light touch and kicking only off-topic and unreasonably insulting posts.
