That depends. How many boys does it bring to the yard?

[–] Psythik@lemm.ee 2 points 3 hours ago

I could teach you, but I'd have to charge.

[–] Wilco@lemm.ee 4 points 8 hours ago

False! It is disinformation I say. The picture is not showing a milkshake machine. This is a high speed cow spinner used for milk separation and cream production!

[–] Machinist@lemmy.world 4 points 9 hours ago

That is the largest wood lathe I have seen. Super fucking dangerous setup, as well. Maybe it's only spinning at single digit RPM and you can't tell.

From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me.

I have literally never seen an unironic version of this meme so I can't even process it correctly

[–] OkQwerty@lemmy.world 13 points 19 hours ago

Witnesses at the scene reported "dozens" of boys coming to the yard, only for many to be flung back as far as a whole mile (1.6km) away upon coming into close range of the milkshake's rotational inertia.

Princess Bubblegum taught me that this is how perfect cheese is made

And please stop killing ducks to make duck tape.

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 hours ago

Fun fact the name actually come from the fact that originally the external material was I believe duck water proofing feathers.

And the baby clothes industry is s horrific tragedy no one seems to care about.

[–] Rolive@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 8 hours ago

Yeah? Think about baby oil!

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 2 points 10 hours ago

Have you seen babies? Those alien gremlins poop everywhere, it's not a tragedy, it's pest control!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wanted a milkshake, this is clearly a milkspin. Make it again or I'll be speaking to your manager.

Aw, man. I didn't know I could order my martini spun.

[–] Comment105@lemm.ee 1 points 22 hours ago (3 children)

You should've put real cotton candy in a real martini glass.

[–] Test_Tickles@lemmy.world 2 points 22 hours ago

Look at this mother fucker in here rollin deep. He not only has Martini glasses, but he just got cotton candy on hand to shove in one.

[–] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 1 points 21 hours ago

I just pulled it from an image search…

[–] Fleur_@aussie.zone 28 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

Hahaha in reality the cows are treated perfectly well! They're only forcibly impregnated for their entire lives to facilitate a constant cycle of lactation and seperated from their children at birth. Perfectly happy cows! Your milkshake is worth it! :D

[–] RedSnt@feddit.dk 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (3 children)

Don't worry! Synthetic milk is right around the corner (within a couple of decades), soon we'll be able to save the cows. They'll get to retire to a farm somewhere and live happily ever after.

[–] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 3 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Non-animal milks have been around for a long time.

[–] RedSnt@feddit.dk 1 points 5 hours ago (1 children)
[–] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 hours ago

Plant milks.

[–] EndlessNightmare@reddthat.com 2 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Synthetic milk already sort of exists. Perfect Day Foods uses some sort of fermentation process.

[–] RedSnt@feddit.dk 2 points 8 hours ago

Yeah, Remilk is building a big factory ("the world's largest fermentation facility") here in Denmark to produce synthetic milk, but I wasn't aware if it was going to be used for consumer milk products straight away. Feels like it still needs some development.

[–] unbanshee@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 19 hours ago

The dairy and beef lobbies would like to have a word with you, if you'll please just step a little to the right?

[–] n3m37h@sh.itjust.works -3 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Have you asked them if theyre happy or assuming they hate it?

[–] jerkface@lemmy.ca 2 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago) (1 children)

Cows can cry. Did you even know that? When they bellow and cry actual tears for weeks or months after their children are stolen from them, we can be pretty fucking certain they are not happy about it.

Cows are herd animals. Herd animals are more socially sophisticated than even we are. They feel very deeply. They experience empathy. Do you?

[–] n3m37h@sh.itjust.works -1 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

So then let's just release them all and watch them get eaten alive by wolves and cyotes. That's a MUCH better life then having food given to them, have their medical needs met. Yep, terrible life....

[–] jerkface@lemmy.ca 2 points 57 minutes ago* (last edited 49 minutes ago)

So let's just forget that idiotic point you were trying to make previously, eh?

Guy, you don't know what you are talking about. You don't know anything about the life of a dairy cow. You KNOW you don't know anything about the life of a dairy cow. You are arguing from an ignorant, emotional position. And your motivations are clear to everyone but you.

The animals we create are morally entitled to the same unconditional love and protection as our own children. There is not a meaningful moral difference between breeding an animal and adopting a child.

[–] Fleur_@aussie.zone 29 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I feel like we need to begin this conversation by establishing that I can't talk to cows

[–] Nelots@lemm.ee 10 points 1 day ago

I'm sorry about your disability.

[–] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 day ago

Time for you to study up on your Bovish

Milkshakes are just a byproduct of the bovine space training program

[–] Cheradenine@sh.itjust.works 22 points 1 day ago (3 children)

In nature and historically, cows are often spun, or thrown at high velocity. See the documentary "fetchez la vache" for example.

As long as it brings all the boys to the yard I see no issue. Damn right.

fetchez la vache

A true scholar of history and the arts, I see.

Of course. Everyone knows, if it's in french, it's classy and accurate.

[–] hakase@lemm.ee 5 points 1 day ago

As well as the famous classical epic poem describing a similar-but-agentive event titled "Hey Diddle Diddle, the Cat and the Fiddle"
