I Took A Life Today.

The older goldfish.
He's been acting weird and twitching around kinda like seizing.
Finally tonight, It was floating at the bottom. I took it out of the tank, diluted some bleach in water and it twitched twice and died.
we had it for about a year and before then, it lived in a bucket and used for bait.
I hate keeping fish, and this doesnt help it none.
Boo.

 

Im sorry.
Atleast his in fishy heaven now...

 

Should have eaten it...

 

or fishy hell he coulda been a fishy asshole.

 

Aww poor fishy! You can always get some more! Haha

 

a bleach bath....how humane

 

there is no hell like canned food.

 

Awwww

:grouphug:

I once had a fish who swum upside down and had half a fin.....

 

Aint no way in hell I was gonna eat a goldfish. Meanie.
Poor thing had been dying all damn day, I just wanted it out of its misery. I felt guilty for making the other goldfish watch it die.
It was a fishy asshole. It bullied the other goldfish.

I buried it in the back yard. hope kitties dont get to it.

and on the same day the doctor signed old lady's DNR too.

 

Like an object?!!

 

hhaaha dats mean lol. im sure it was a great fish, up in fishy heaven now havn a great time

 

oh come on,get over it. the simple act of getting outta bed,hell rolling over in bed takes "lives" of organisms.. you probably kill over a million things a day without even thinking of it.

i dont get why when people are conscious of killing something they get upset,yet the reality is nearly every second of every day they do indeed kill "something"..

 

...because we're not really conscious of the "million things" we kill everyday. God forbid compassion, right?

 

compassion? i have reverence and respect for the lives i take.

perhaps folks should be conscious of the cycle of life that they are part of and understand that we as humans kill things intentionally as well as most often unintentionally constantly.

its a fact of our lives.

i see no reason why a fish deserves any more compassion than a dust mite.

 

Well, I don't think Hilder was being too serious about feeling terrible for the fishy.

It was the fish's time, after all.

 

I agree with mmg...and not cause she is a beautiful redhead...because she is right in her post....and a beautiful redhead....killin dustmites and ants etc is no reason to forget compassion

 

oh come on,like any of yall are conscious of all the killing you do,much less take the time to have compassion for every little thing you kill.

like i said,i have reverence and respect. i aint gonna try and make it out like i have compassion for a fucking dust mite.. what your going to gently suck it up in the vacum cleaner as to make its death as painless as possible? lol spare me please...

 

not what i meant....i realize i kill stuff without knowing and even if i did know i wouldnt mourn a bug....I could not dip a fish in a bleach bath...and...i am not sure it is compassion that would prevent it...I just dont kill stuff...my friends go huntin all the time...doesnt bother me....I just dont kill stuff...knowingly

 

you should come volunteer at the sanctuary where dilli works. bash a few rats heads for the birds of prey and youll get over that aversion..lol

 

What Hilder did and getting up in the morning are two different things. She did it consciously, she didn't want to but she did. Killing creatures as you wake up, well, I for one, sure don't notice.
