Make Asylums Great Again.
PETA, the lunatic animal-rights advocacy group, is demanding Nintendo to nix Cow’s brass nose ring. If you don’t know who Cow is, it’s the anthropomorphic car-driving character that’s featured in the video game “Mario Kart World.”
Recently, PETA began a campaign that’s meant to urge the game maker to give a redesign to Cow “without the nose ring — a painful reminder of the cruelty cows endure in the meat and dairy industries.” (RELATED: Australian Surfer Sees Board Get Smashed In Half By Great White Shark)
“The brass ring in Cow’s nose glosses over real-world violence and cruelty to animals. That’s why we’re asking you to give this beloved bovine a small but meaningful upgrade: Remove the nose ring and let Cow race freely — without any painful reminders of the industries that treat animals like profit-making machines,” said PETA‘s SVP of marketing engagement Joel Bartlett in a letter that was sent to Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa, posting the letter on their official website.
Bartlett added, “leave the rings to Sonic and let Cow breathe free!”

If you follow my blog, then you’re very well aware how much I love animals — I’m one of the biggest animal-loving people out there. But with that being said, I also enjoy a nice fat hamburger from time to time.
Let’s chill with all the tomfoolery, PETA, and enjoy some food. Life is too short to act like a kook.
