** This thread discusses the content article: "Terrifying Deep-Fried Gasping Fish Video" **

I can't bring myself to watch this video. The picture and description are bothersome enough for me. But I thought it might be worth posting. If you eat fish (or any animal for that matter) and are trying to kick the habit, this just might help you go veg.

Here's the blurb that I found with it:

"This video of a deep-fried yet still-gasping fish at a restaurant located in, we think, China is truly one of the most unsettling things we've seen. Thanks to its origins on the oft-playful Buzzfeed, we assumed this might have been a gag, that the joke was that this writhing creature was an animatronic robot or something equally not-real. But it's real. We post this not to gross you out (although it most assuredly will), but because this is horror. This is the stuff of nightmares, on a plate. This sort of thing goes on in the real world, behind closed doors or in front of people with video cameras, and whatever your stance on the ethics of carnivorousness, you've got to admit that the indifference to suffering shown here is staggering."
