Hell Kitty

"They can all go to hell."

"Why?"

"Because they are killing whales?"

"I don't think killing whales is cool. I won't even kill a bug, as you know. But condemning them to hell is a little severe, don't you think?"

"No."

"Besides I doubt they believe in hell anyway."

"What?"

"I doubt they believe in hell. They are Japanese. They are probably shinto or something."

"Shinto?"

"It's a religion. It's cultural too. Should you go to hell 'cause you eat meat? Lots of cows are dying."

"That's different?"

"How is that different. One mammal is cooler than the other mammal? Has better PR? Just because we think they are more like us or have higher intelligence than another mammal doesn't necessarily mean someone should go to hell for killing them or any other animal."

"I see your point."

"Excuse me?"

"I see your point."

"You know what?"

"What."

"Let's open up a restaurant that serves whale burgers. And horse. And chimp. Oh, and dogs and cats. All the animals most Americans think are too cool or cute to kill and eat, in burger form.

"You're nuts."

"We'll call it, Hell Burger. Our logo can be a devil eating a burger with a patty shaped like Hello Kitty."

"What's Hello Kitty."

"You should ask the guys killing the whales on TV. Their culture invented Hello Kitty."

"Really?"

"Really...and you know what?"

"What."

"That is why they should go to hell."
