Odd religious references aside, I’m with the neighbors. I don’t want an amateur auto repair shop next to my home and if you’re honest, you probably don’t either.

Sorry, snowflake. Did clicking on, reading, then commenting on this article - which is about an app, on a phone [i.e., technology] -make you feel bad? There’s a really easy solution, you know.
Okay. I am wrong. There is nothing wrong with killing an animal and using its body for mindless and cheap humor, and I was probably the only person on earth who though that kind of thing was problematic before you set me straight with these examples. You have won. Congratulations.
Ok, I’ll bite (even if the shark can’t do so): I find it problematic both in that he killed the shark, and in his lewdness in displaying his “prize”. While I am ok with hunting for sustenance (and for this purpose alone), his motive in killing the shark becomes quite a bit more suspect when viewed through the lens of…
Questions about the morality of fur are not new, and certainly there are differing views. I would call that a very false equivalency though, because I think we can assume this animal has either been dead an hour or two at the most, or is perhaps still alive and in the process of dying.
I really didn’t originally mean to suggest he should be charged with a crime; just that he ought to be subject to people’s opinions and reactions to this kind of behavior. (Now that you mention it though, I doubt it’s legal in all cases for a grown adult to strip naked and simulate a sex act on a live animal. I don’t…
I am about as unsentimental a person as I’ve encountered, including the “too soon” Deadspin commenters, to the point where I begin to wonder if I’m a socio and/or psychopath. Still, I understand that the living are allowed to feel sympathy and offense at the humiliation of the dead, be they animal or human. I’ve…
I suppose your quibble with word choice is valid according to the letter of the law. However the spirit of what she’s asking is whether it is acceptable human behavior to be making outrageous attempt at physical comedy out of the death of an animal like this. There is, I suppose, room for disagreement; maybe you think…
Counterpoint: It’s a little unseemly.
Oh good, I thought there might be no one here justifying fucking a shark’s corpse. Crisis averted.
Counterpoint: Yes it fucking is.
The best way to handle Milo is to starve him of attention. Don’t voice outrage at his stupid statements. Don’t print interviews with him. Let him have his troll festival but stay away. Don’t have a counter protest, that just feeds the beast.
Fucking unemployed Gizmodo writers trying to tell me what giraffes get to live and what giraffes get to die. Not today, Matt Novak. Not on a fucking Monday. I don’t care if you have to consult the Necronomicon or take a trip to the Pet Cemetery, but you reanimate that giraffe right goddamn now, welfare queen.
Just as Matt is free to point out the internet falsely sharing a 22 year old photo as current content associated with a relevant story, your daughter can still love the photo in her room as an object completely disconnected from April the Giraffe. You get that right?
Writer posts article (doing his job), internet commenter writes “get a day job” in response at nearly 9am.
This is literally his day job.
I think if you look closely, you’ll see that she’s a baby.
