Random queries no. 140
One of a series of genuine search engine enquiries which successfully brought visitors to the Ministry. Can I help?
IS lT FAR ON PART OF HUMANS TO REAR SHEEP & CHOP OF THEIR HAIR FOR GETTING WOOL PARAGRAPHED INFORMATION
First: STOP ****ING SHOUTING. If you can't even be bothered to operate your 'shift' key, why should I bother to answer your enquiry?
Oh yeah; to ridicule it. Fair enough.
Far? It's about that far. And I wouldn't start from here, if I were you.
Chop of their hair? I prefer fillet, really.
Wool paragraphed information? Awkward to file.
Joking aside: poor spelling in web searches isn't a matter of snobbishness; your search simply won't work if you garble the keywords.
Having translated the underlying question: 'fair' isn't relevant. They're sheep – wool is what they're for. Barring absolute cruelty I don't believe animals have 'rights', at all, and have no problem whatsoever with their exploitation as a resource. Lambs may be cute, but they taste even better.
[Update 23/05/08: Why is this rapidly becoming a FAQ, primarily bringing visitors from Saudi Arabia, most using near-identical wording?]
