This man was specifically not gooning, gooning is about lasting as long as you can.

Further evidenced by the fact they're posting from their non-db0 account after saying they voted on the topic with their db0 account.
Whether or not you agree with db0's decision, framing it as a mere "petty war" is disingenuous.
It says LITRPG, not RPG. LITRPG is a story genre.
(Edit: this is meant to be informative, not condescending. I hadn't heard of that genre until semi recently.)
This is why we should use things like GPL.
I guess this is more of a fraction times a fraction equals a smaller fraction than a negative times a negative equals a positive sort of thing then.
At this point y'all aren't disagreeing about what happened or if it was good/bad, just about how terms like "normal" and "nothing burger" should be used.
I can't find any mention of the specific species of peafowl the man had. My personal guess is that it's just a stock image of a peacock. None of the articles below mention the species, but one does have the same mugshot.

Quoting the AP article,
The 61-year-old man from Hudson, Florida, was arrested last week on a third-degree felony charge of aggravated animal cruelty, according to an affidavit from the Pasco County Sheriff’s Office.
The man told investigators that he had killed the two peacocks because his neighbor kept feeding them. He had written the neighbor a letter telling her that he would continue to kill his pet peacocks if she kept feeding them “to prove a point,” according to the affidavit, which didn’t say how many peacocks he kept.
The man “admitted to killing the bird by cutting the bird’s neck out of spite, then bleeding it out, and then later eating the bird after cooking it on a frying pan,” the affidavit said.
So it doesn't seem so simple as him merely getting arrested for deciding to eat one of his peafowl.
Killing an endangered animal and cruelty to animals are separate statutes. So I think it's safe to safe it's not an endangered peafowl.

I don't care enough to pull the man's actual court records and see if he was also charged with Intentional killing or wounding of any species designated as endangered, threatened, or of special concern.
If anyone wants to sleuth on this further, feel free.
I like em. But I also don't have to walk near them or where they poo, so take my opinion as you will.

Hello Karim! How does it feel to be the first (or at least one of the first) celebrities to do an AMA on Lemmy?
Some non-egg laying animal gave birth to an egg laying animal due to a beneficial mutation. So the "chicken" (or rather, any egg laying animal) came first.
