S2art- if given the chouice between non animal products, and ones used on animals, I'd use (and do) the bunny friendly stuff and risk my hair falling out....
And the possibility of cancer.......?
As far as I can tell, everything gives me cancer these days
If I'd had the opportunity, I'd have joined the pro-march today, although that would have meant I would have been photographed by the police and the information filed, just in case...

Testing on animals for beauty products is a good thing. It means that we need lower prescription beer goggles when looking at mingers. There are also fewer rats on the street fecking around with our bins, and if Doris isn't pissing her pants every night well that can't be all bad can it?
Its a win-win situation tbh.
Plus, we now have the ability to lock people up for 90 days on terrorism charges. Which means that there are fewer lentilist greenies around to pontificate on our 'worthless' existence.
Honestly, I just can't see a downside.
I think this is the best post I've read on these forums.... ever....

So long as it will benefit the human race then I am all for it and see no problem whatsoever.
So what if a few gerbils or horse die from testing. If it saves at least 1 human then it has been worthwhile. Its not as if they are going to make whatever they test on extinct now is it.
A question for all those who are against it: Would you be so reluctant for animal testing if you had a disease that could be cured from it?
and another:
If you were to die from a diesease but animal testing were to save your life would you still protest to it?
Who are you asking- it was only that one feller who was totaly against animal testing, and he'sed off to go firebomb Blairout's house....
Just phoneif you need help, I would love to batter a lentilist
count me in too, my dander is well and truly up with these appalling people

I'm sure my mum being in remission from breast cancer for 16 years must have at some point made a rat feel a bit shit. I'm also fairly sure that my dad having prostate cancer now must have pissed a mouse off
This is the best use of sarcasm / irony I have read in a while....
This bit made me spit my coffe out onto my desk

I lost my Mum to cancer - but this kind of 'gallows humour' cracks me up....

thats not true.
Today I tried to send, by a well known courier, about 30mg of a compound that has never been made before except by me. All of the quantity of this substance that does exist and has ever existed in the history of this planet and quite possibly the universe is in my lab. Infact I wante to send _all_ of the amount of this stuff that I had through the post. That is 30mg, or 0.03g. DHL wouldn't do it because I didn't have a "Material Safety Data Sheet" for it. I told them it was only going to bad for you if you ate it or rubbed it into your skin or something. Still wouldn't do it.
bit over the top really.
Some things give you cancer - infact a lot of things will give you cancer. eating barbequed food increase the number of DNA mutagensis events your body experiences. Standing in the sunshine does likewise.
but the thing is, your body is seriously good at repairing errors in DNA and killing cells where it can't do this.
So basically: don't worry about it. Besides, if I worried about getting cancer, I wouldn't work where I work (in a chemistry lab). Infact I probably will get cancer.

Admittedly, I was exaggerating, but there seems to be a scare about everything these days. My attitude is to avoid the obvious things and the rest in moderation. Can't be bothered worrying about it really.
