Posting on Tumblr is like walking into the cafeteria and saying, “Boy, I’m so hungry I could eat a horse!”
Someone overhears you and is horrified that you advocate for eating horses. You tell them you were being hyperbolic and don’t actually want to eat a horse, in fact you quite Ike horses, you just picked a ludicrously and impractically large animal to illustrate the magnitude of your hunger. In response they send you a pamphlet about animal abuse and the evils of the meat industry, followed by a link to a TED talk about why you shouldn’t eat horses. Again you explain that you never actually intended to eat a horse, it was hyperbole, you used to own a horse yourself. Later they find you privately and accuse you of lying about not wanting to eat a horse and how comments like yours encourage people to farm horses for meat.
