>could off a burglar without my heart skipping a beat>having to mercy kill the frog I accidentally hit with my weed wacker has me like this
Btw I'm a big guy with a beard and tattoos
>>65276814I actually am, yes.
>>65276785The burglar did it to himself, one does not violate the NAP without consequence.The frog was just living its best life, godspeed little friend.
>>65276871correct, frogs are creatures of peace.burglars are vermin and should be dispatched like you are crushing an invasive species of wasp underfoot.
>>65276785Means you have a conscience and a soul.
>>65276785real>>65276884trve
>>65276785yeah this happens sometimes with little gardener snakes in my yard, so now every time before i trim/mow i run my foot in the grass in the areas where they are so they move and im at least aware of where they might be
>>65276785I still sometimes feel bad about that snail I ran over in my bike without looking.
>>65276785i can pop invasives all day, but i still feel bad for even bumping into a firefly too hardi'm glad i've yet to kill a frog, its one thing if you're eating them, but otherwise would feel horrible
>>65276905This and rabbits. I even hate hitting insects but finding out you just mulched a little den of rabbit pups fucks my week up and I start drinking heavily.Snakes I usually find half a second too late when going HAM on a weed whip, then I have to decapitate it with the line or step on the head.
>>65276916I don't u derstand why sometimes they just make their nest in a shallow depression in the middle of open ground.Is the parent rabbit deranged or retarded or riddled with brain parasites? Or are they playing 4D chess and think>No one would ever suspect a clutch of helpless snacks here
>>65276785The burger knew the risks and decided dying was a acceptable risk for his profession he choseThe frog was just doing innocent frog shit and got unlucky.
The burglar is an inconsiderate aggressor and parasite, while the frog is just a neutral and non-belligerent little creature going on about its business, in addition to playing his part in his eco system.Thus, the humble frog has a tangible value to the world, a potential value which the burglar has discarded and befouled through his way of life, and earned his own fate through his actions.Accidents happen, such is life, and at least you made sure he didn't suffer for longer. If you feel bad about it, maybe consider trying to go out of your way to do some kindness for another frog some time. Frogs are agreeable little creatures.>>65276910>its one thing if you're eating themYeah, I feel that killing should ideally fulfill some sort of purpose. Even a troublesome pest gets killed for legitimate reasons (the burglar still gets grouped separately, as he is supposed to actually know better, and is ostensibly supposed to be on the same team that is your community).
>>65276910invasives are a (usually but not always human-caused) disruption of an ecosystem, you're always doing nature a favour when you remove them (except rare instances like in iceland where some invasives actually end up improving soil quality that was lost due to the removal of the forests that once stood there).i have species autism and i'm very good at recognizing plants that don't belong in my local environment, always pull em out of the ground or at least break them wherever i go.
Once, outside of my house a baby bird fell out of a tree. Big baby bird too, we have birds of prey around here, probably one of them. It was all fucked up, it stood no chance, its bones were bent backwards, it was bleeding from its mouth and eyes, ants were eating it alive, it was awful, had to put it out of its misery. I figured the best way to do it was to just completely obliterate it, make sure it 100% died instantly and didn't feel any pain, so I used a mallet. Unfortunately, I had forgotten that I ordered pizza. Delivery walked up the driveway just in time to see me smash birdie. She didn't speak enough English to understand any explanation either.
>>65277398i once got angry whining from a middle aged woman about the plants i was ripping up out of the ground in a forest (they were an invasive species of pokeweed).i fucking hate normalfags so goddamn much, why can't i just sit in a wizard tower in the middle of the woods and kill trespassers, is that so much to ask?
>>65277437Same bro, all I have ever wanted was to be a wizard. And a few big titty asian girls. Why must reality be so disappointing?
>>65276785>>could off a burglar without my heart skipping a beat>>having to mercy kill the frog I accidentally hit with my weed wacker has me like thisUnironically OP, isn't this pretty normal? I get a little down even when I have to put down a rabid animal. It's the difference between killing the innocent and killing evil. Evil requires choice. A burglar CHOSE to violate the sanctity of your house for personal gain. At least in the US if you're willing to move for work/CoL and not a complete lazy druggy thieving shithead, you can always find roles and make some money honestly. There is tons of help available for all sorts of financial issues. I'm not claiming life being poor is roses at all, it ain't, but there is no excuse to burglarize people's houses.Whereas an animal can be terminally ill or fatally injured, or in the case of some dogs trained badly by an asshole, and thus necessitate the unpleasant reality of ending its life being the most humane action. But I think it's normal and healthy to take no pleasure in that. Still good to man up and do it, turning your back on suffering and plugging your ears (particularly if you accidentally caused it) if you can do something is wrong.You're a decent guy OP, that's all.
>>65276785I work in research and over the years I must have killed literally hundreds of mice with my bare (actually gloved) hands. Maybe over a thousand. Sometimes I think about that boss level in Metal Gear where you have to wade up a river, navigating around the ghosts of all the grunts you killed throughout the game, so it's harder the fewer enemies you spared. I couldn't beat 1000 mouse ghosts.
>>65276785The frog won’t steal my TV and slurp up my tax dollars. He just want some wet
The nigger can understand he is putting himself in danger for material gainThe frog is not sapient and can not comprehend the strange buzzing mammal
>>65277470Do you ever stop to think about why you assume that a human, unlike animals, has choice?
>>65277398something similar happened to me. I got home from a range day, all dressed up on my larp gear. We have a lot of squirrels around here, and two of them were running around, and ran into the street. This old couple were not paying attention at all, they saw the squirrels 50 yards away and didn't even attempt to slow down. (They were speeding, too.) My neighbor saw it, and she was much more disturbed than I was. Went to my shed and got my shovel, and went to the road to pick the thing up so it wouldn't get any messier. The poor thing's skull was all broken, with it's tongue hanging out and an eye dangling out of socket. It was gross. As I was picking this thing up, five or six cars drove by and they all stopped and stared as a guy dressed up like an Iraqi Republican Guardsmen with a big revolver on his hip carried a dead squirrel with a shovel. I buried it and said a little prayer.
>>65276785>could off a burglar without my heart skipping a beatOh yeah? You kill a lot of people to know that?
>>65276785"killing" isn't a bad thing it's based on context like everything else. Murder is bad, not saving the life of a good person is bad. Killing in the correct context is good and a cause for celebration, just like saving a good person. Every single culture in history before the modern nightmare believed this.
>>65276910The thing that annoys me with Starlings is when they imitate other birds, they get my hopes up thinking that there’s Black Cockatoos outside only for it to be those little shiny fuckers
>>65276785I've had to finish off a few animals my cats drug home to "teach me how to hunt" and it doesn't feel very good. Even when I bag a rabbit or land a fish, I have a feeling of reverence.It is very good that you have the resolve to do what is needed to defend you and yours, but I bet when it's all said and done there will be a little part of you that really wishes things didn't have to happen they way they did. Not that you would every have wished you done a single thing differently. I think you have a good hear, anon. If you ever feel like killing is no big deal, slow down a bit.
>>65276785>>65276916>weed wacker>weed whipTake the scythe pill.
>>65276785Poop shit on my cock, OP. You'll get what this means.
>>65277689oh please, people are born killers, all it takes is the right kind of justification. millions and millions of otherwise perfectly normal people have killed in self-defense or premeditated a murder of an objectively terrible person with no psychological trauma or feelings of regret afterwards.normalfags just don't justify any killings to themselves (generally, unless pushed to some mental breaking point) because they insist that killing is something that is never to be done under any circumstance.i think most of the people that do actually make peace with the fact that they're willing to kill under certain circumstances would easily do so, given the right situation arose. this would be with a gun though, once you pass the threshhold into doing it with a knife or your bare hands, i think even those people might not have the stomach to go fully through with it in the heat of the moment.
>>65277949why does he have a zoomer haircut?
>>65278166Peace worshipers have ironically doomed the earth to two centuries of senseless bloodshed more intense than the thousand years beforehand, we're in the *middle* of those two centuries by the way.This is just what happens when you make Peace your god instead of Truth.
>>65278180wow so zased and stoik
>>65276785You might just be a liberal
>>65277850Seriously. On the topic of self defense, when I hear people say shit like "I'd rather die than kill someone else" it makes me feel physically ill to think some are just that fucked in the head.
>>65278230If someone can be convinced that they shouldn't defend themselves by the most effective means possible, they weren't meant to survive in the first place.
>>65278198that guy is retarded, but there is a core of truth in the fact that the extremely meek pacifism of today is only fanning the flames of future conflict.peace through strength (using your strength specifically to seek out and destroy those who try to prey on others) is good and moral.
>>65278217nonsense, i have far more familial kinship with a hapless frog than i do with any human insectoid creature that seeks to enter my home and steal from me. burglars are not human, less human than frogs, in fact.

>>65277631>found little maosu killed by electric todayRip mouse. Wasn’t even burned, was probably far too slow a death than he deserved
>>65278143What a great depiction of how well a scythe does against a brush cutter on tasks where you normally wouldn't use a brush cutter.
>>65278166A guy in prison who was getting out in the morning went through my locker and said he was going to go fuck with my elderly parents. i strangled him to death in front of four other guys. I had completely forgotten about it until just now.
>>65278171>why does he have a zoomer haircut?Unfortunately Cockatoos have a terrible taste in fashion
>>65276814tattoos are gay, you big ol' faggot
>>65278143For maximum cutting speed with a motor-line-trimmer: 1) Figure out the rotation of head, and specifically which side the line is moving back towards oneself. 2) Protect your feet lower body eyes and ears 3)Raise trimmer head above tallest plant and apply full power/rpm.4)Lower trimhead in such a way that all the small bits of veg. are thrown into a clear /previously cleared area (which after a while will be where you are standing). E,G, If trim head is rotating clockwise-viewed-from-above then it will be the R.H. side of the "cutting disk" doing 100% of the work. 5) Staying clean while working is Fag Play. 6) Instead of nylon line use the smallest size 7x19 extra-flexible steel cable. It's 10X faster. 7) Worrying about picking tiny pieces of wire out of your skin and clothes is sick-sissy-shit. Wear sunglasses.
