Put On Your Sunday Best Honey! We're Gonna Go Eat Some Fuckin' Sharks

This picture is accompanied by a point, I promise.

I was using public transportation this morning, I know, very "woman of the people" kind of thing for me to do. I'm like Evita.

..and as for fortune, and as for fame.....I never invited them in...But they sure as hell look fantastic on me eh?!

Whilst I was sitting in my taxi, I got to thinking.......

People who eat Shark Fin Soup are ASSHOLES.

mmmm. Tastes like speciation endangerment!
First off - there is nothing chic about this soup. It costs a metric shit ton when you order it at a restaurant and it looks like someone just sneezed in your bowl.

I suppose my spark of conciousness came about because I was dining at one of my favorite restaurants here in the city last week, Phillippe Chow, (am I allowed to name restaurants on this thing? I'll find out later) and these people had the cojones grandes to put this on their menu:

*Shark Fin Soup ........$18

Please note that endangered sharks are not used for this soup

Well thank God. Now pretentious dickheads all over New York City can sleep at night knowing that their soup consumption made of low budget sharks won't cause extinction for at least the next 20 years.

How do you think those other sharks became endangered in the first place?

What? Wuzzn't me.

I guess I just don't understand the appeal. It's been called a delicacy all over the world. How so? How did a fish appendage make it onto the Nouveau Riche food list? Can I create some?

Sea Turtle Shell Meringue

*please note that ordering this will come at the cost of eternal damnation for your soul.

I just don't understand.

Are people born like this?
