Was watching screw attacks’ report on Majesco’s response ot PETA’s COOKING MAMA – MAMA KILLS. Majesco responded by pointing out the numerous vegetarian dishes in their games.
The Peta MAMA KILLS site features a cooking mama game in which you kill and prepare a turkey. You earn bonuses such as wall paper and videos of turkeys being tortured in turkey farms. It gets quite graphic, the game does, as the hatred for meat just oozes off of it…right down to eggs dripping blood when you crack them!
In 2004, I was a younger man, and I put all my faith in Kerry. I felt so strongly that things mattered then, that the world was teetering on that last little hinge. That the sky was going to fall, that the world was going to end. Only, the world didn’t end, but things did go quite sour. Life absorbed me. The working class world, the bum, the beat, and eventually the cynic. It was like being told that Santa Claus wasn’t real.
And here, bam, Obama won. I can’t help but feel like this has made up for ‘04. In retrospect, ‘04 was necessary. Was not for that loss, those 4 more years of war, oil, and spiraling economics would not have came to be heightened, driving people back in to taking an interest in the system.
Man. I just can’t help but feel like it would have been entirely appropiate to play the credits to Star Wars right there after Obama’s acceptance speech.
