Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

I disagree. None of those other actions serve a purpose. It's not like we can absorb calories through touch, smell or our eyes. No bosy just licks meat and then throws it away like they would if they just touched, smelled, or saw it. We actually eat the meat when we taste it. That's why people enjoy the taste, because they associate it with being fed. Not because of some cognitive dissonance as the meme suggests.
