Just want to see if we can make it last for a 'lil while.
Two questions, I guess kinda semi-horror related.
Answer and discuss.
1: I've often wondered this myself - If human flesh were cloned, eg - flesh only - no "brains" just random bits and peices.
Assuming it was legal to do so, and mass produced as a foodstuff, would you venture to try it?
~I'm all for experimentation myself, and have to say that as long as I wasn't eating "someone", I'd be quite ok with it. I mean, if they're growing flesh, I imagine they could also engineer it to have less fat and more muscle, maybe even make it boneless, who knows.
How would human taste, I wonder?
Would we go well in a curry, sliced cold in a sandwich, or grilled on a bbq? (I know we'd sure have nice sets of ribs...)
Maybe they could make a new kinda sashimi out of us?
If you told someone to go eat a dick...would they take it literally?
Anyway, my answer in short - Yes, I'd at least try it.
2: Pet cloning.
It's been explored in one or two movies, and, I'm sure we all have dreams about our friends lost over the years...so, if you could keep a blood sample, and simply have a new one cloned when your old one died...would you do it?
This ones a little more difficult to answer for me...I've lost some GREAT pets, and it's ripped me to shreds every time.
If I were to clone any of them, sure...I mean, it'd be nice to think that you had an identical LOOKING animal around, but it wouldn't be the same animal, would it?
However, I assume it would also be likely to share a lot of common behavioural attributes, and intelligence levels of its predecessor, and therefore if you were happy with the first one, the second one would seem a nearer substitute than a "new" animal...would that be enough to keep someone happy, or would they miss the old pet more?
hmmm....pondering....I dunno on this one. There's too many as yet unknown factors.
I'm all for making it legal to do this, but I'm not sure if I'd be a fn of the process. I suppose I'd be willing to give it a try just to see what it was like, and base any further decisions on that outcome, so yeah....
There you go, discuss.
Also, feel free to add any other "?" topics you've put some thought towards in your time.
