If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

In the interests of being lazy, I will copy and paste the reply I posted mere minutes ago at TFArchive (other websites are available, but most of them are rubbish) in response to the inevitable slue of "ewwww... he's sick!" responses that lacked any actual substance.
Yum eggs.
Fried, scrambled, boiled.
Chicken, goose, human.
"OMG he [allegedly] ate something that would have been alive if its parent hadn't wanted it dead!!!!111one"
The theft and blatant breaches of basic hygeine concern me more than the hearsay about consumption of dead tissue.
EGG.
Here endeth the boredom.
I don't understand this social taboo about cannibalism. Meat is meat... an egg is an egg. Just because somebody fancies the idea of human [whatever] doesn't make them mentally disturbed, amoral or evil*. It just makes them criminal. In mine eyes.
* - Yes, this is a religiously fuelled argument waiting to happen. When it all kicks off don't expect me to contribute... I'm usually conspicuously absent from those debates for a reason. It's that I don't care.
Grrr. Argh.

I get this picture that he is sitting in his bed, munching on a fetus.
It's not cooked or anything. It's a sushi fetus.
That disgusts me.
The same way eating a raw chicken would disgust me.
If he removed the fetus' arms, legs and head, and made a cool meatloaf or something, and served it with mashed potatoes and a sallad.
Well. That's a different story.
Can't believe I'm still here.

I'm shocked at it, eating human corpses or the desire to do so is something a bit unusual in a person i think. Least they were dead first tho... {has been thoroughly put off his breakfast}

I get this picture of a medical clinic that breaks pretty much every sanitation rule I can think of, with a scaremongering employee adding "I think I maybe saw him eat one!!!111"
It hardly twitches my moral outrage meter...
Grrr. Argh.

Do you think he could just place his mouth over the female parts and just suck the little bastard right out of there?
That would be like... getting paid to eat dinner.

I'd hate to think about someone eating a non-dead human corpse!

It's still fairly common in some locales... for instance, some Eastern European countries with vampire superstitions suggest disinterring a corpse, burning and drinking the diluted ashes as a cure for recurrent illness in which there are also recurrent dreams of the dead person.
No more or less daft than many superstitions or religions.
