Yeah, I know, it's kind of a no-brainer. But the relative cuteness of mermaids versus cavepeople was really hit home to me today when I received images from two different protests conducted by PETA UK yesterday. The first, from a demonstration in Edinburgh to encourage people to cut the fish out of their diets, gets 10 points out of 10 for being just as cute as can be. I frickin’ love those mermaid outfits.

But I don't think this next picture from an anti-Burberry protest (designed to make the point that fur is for cavepeople) would make the cut over at Cute Overload. Still, a pretty striking demonstration, in my opinion.

Anyway, the point of all this is please don't eat fish or wear fur. kthx.

What is with the extreme close up on the caveman?

I love the mermaids. That is a sweet campaign, and sure to make people see the beauty in fish!!

I still laugh, seeing this shot!
Anita & Noemie were very comic and my camera trembled for laughing.
I've published here all the pics: http://deposit313.altervista.org/peta/burberry_web/
