Poll: Cannibalism

[Pyre00]

Seriously though? You'd take someone else's life over your own foot or a leg?
I mean...it's grisly, but, it means both of you get to survive all that much longer. And I mean this as a first resort. Full body cannibalism as the last resort. Reason being, humans can survive mmm, maybe a week or two without food, so, a foot for example could keep you for a bit longer. But eventually, without any other food, you'd end up eating your own limbs anyway wouldn't you? So, why not start with the foot? Why kill the other guy first having his carcass rotting and giving you food poisoning? There's quite a bit of meat on a person after all.

Don't start big, start small and work up. Yes, I personally would rather have to get a prosthetic than kill someone the first chance I got...or having myself killed.

You are right about the rotting thing, though...
I suppose I would tie him down and cut off parts as I needed food.
It's cruel, but survival often is.

They'd probaly die of an infection shortly after you take off the first part.

LOL, I chose the 2nd option, and was like, wtf, why is it so low in %...

then I saw the first option. EPIC OOPS O__O

 

[NeedAUserName]

Well personally I find cannibalism helps to pass the time.

Am I the only person here who would rather die than feed on the flesh of another human being?

Yo.

We're two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl.

Unless you found something pointy to stab yourself with, or a high ledge to jump off of, instinct would take over morals after a certain point. So regardless, before you die, you would munch on the dead dude. Even though it's not this exact scenario, read Survivor Type; a short story by Stephen King which deals with the main character having to eat himself.

Its just not on, eating your own leg.

(MASSIVE cookie for reference)

If I needed food and the only food source available was my fellow man, then I'd kill him if I had to. And then I'd eat his brains.

this man is smart i would do the same but the brains i would save those when or if i become a zombie

we read a lame story of survival in english class and we brought up cannibalism, the teacher made a very general question of is cannibalism right, she does this and every time i make a huge class argument over my oppinion, the best was should people marry for love or money, as the chorus for "love" rang out i said money, gave my logical point of view, and the rest of the class just insulted me because i did not conform to the ideology of their hallmark cards. But here is the kicker, i was able to give logical and economical reasons why people should marry for money, but no one could think of a reason why to marry for love. I did the same thing for cannibalism, basicly ripped off A Decent Proposal, the whole ireland potato famine and how we should eat the new borns that so many women had too many of.

A comma is not a substitute for a period.

Yep. Now where's the-- oh, THERE it is!

*starts nibbling on fish food at the top of the bowl*

 

[Neonbob]

I would eat a Vegan, doesn't have to be that wishy-washy stranded on an island scenario. I'd bash their head in on the street and drag 'em to a butcher.

You are my new friend. Oh, Padfoot? You win, man.

They'd probaly die of an infection shortly after you take off the first part.

This is possible, but I always try to keep my killing tools clean.

That is the best way to live. Never know when the cops might drop by to say hello, give me all your kitchen utensils for testing.

hahaha...If put in a situation like that, I would only eat a select few people.

 

[Cortheya]

Only for survival.

Why would you ever eat a human if there where much better sources of nutrition available?

this would be the only way I would and if he died first

 

[Simalacrum]

hey, whats so bad about eating people? I do it on a regular basis ^^

what?

 

[DerpyDerpyDerp]

I'd do it as long as it wasn't murder.

 

[Vrex360]

I think it's utterly delightful... incidentally my favourite person is Dr. Lecter.

Okay seriously, I have firm ethics and so I think I would die first or resort to eating rocks.

 

[deletemeplease107]

. Yes, I personally would rather have to get a prosthetic than kill someone the first chance I got...or having myself killed.

Only if the arm is Ed's Automail! That'd be fucking awesome!
FMA ftw!

 

[Arcyde]

Only as a last resort.

We use the dead everyday to make various pharmaceutical products and it is a profitable business.
See:

In Russia,before HIV and AIDS, they would drain blood from the deceased for transfusion into patients in emergencies.
People wait and often die on organ donor lists, when they get an organ and it is transplanted they are performing a kind of cannibalism.
As for the more literal translation I would prefer to eat a Western European, especially a French person. They have less preservatives in their fatty tissue and since they tend to eat more organic and non-processed foods they are a more lean healthy choice than a corn fed American.
Yes I replied to this thread while I was hungry.

 

[GrimTuesday]

for all those who said you would never eat a person, you will be the first to go. but I would first have you lather yourselves in BBQ sauce and hit yourselves with a meat tenderizer repedidly. dont want chewy person now do we. sorry for any spelling mistakes.

Kudos to any one who gets the refence with the BBQ sauce and meat tenderizer joke.
