Someone please, please chime in. You agree that this isn't healthy, right? I'm not the only one, right?

Public shaming is perfectly warranted in this instance, right?!

[attached is a photo of Hat Kid. She looks confused. In one hand she holds a bottle labeled "Meatball Wine." In the other, a sign. It says "I got caught drinking marinara sauce and apparently do so 'some of the time."]

[Yes. This is basically a pet shaming picture]

She can drink marinara sauce if she wants! Who says she can't?!

[subconmodo]

Are you serious? Do you have any idea how unhealthy that is? It has to be unhealthy!

[badassfreakingoverlord]

She's like ten! She's eating stuff made of vegetables while most kids her age are gobbling down packs of Duble-Duble-Stuffed Oreos and Captain Chocula!

[subconmodo]

If it was actual tomato juice you would have a point. It's not.

I don't even know what's in this! There's no nutritional facts or anything! Whoever makes this stuff HAS to be breaking some kind of law!

[badassfreakingoverlord]

And you're not encouraging that?! What kind of alleged menace are you? Your new name is Goody Two-Snatcher!

Yeah I'm not sure about the health benefits of drinking pure marinara sauce, but why would the shaming be necessary? In the end it's her choice though isn't it?

[subconmodo]

I'm shaming because she keeps arguing with me that it's normal. I know she's an alien and all, but that doesn't mean she's not screwing herself over.

If it were tomato juice I'd have a lot less questions!

[smilingbullet]

If she's an alien maybe it's no problem for her health then. Plus there's a possibility of large differences in cultures. You could settle the dispute by looking over the disadvantages or advantages of it with someone who knows medicine and stuff and could find those sort of things out.

No. Let the Little Miss live her dreams, let her drink all the marinara!

[subconmodo]

What is wrong with you people?! No dream should involve that much marinara sauce!

[HE DID POST IT. THE KID KNEW IT. Wasn't there supposed to be a law against these things?]

There's nothing weird about it at all!

When has public shaming ever been useful for anything? Leave the child alone.

[subconmodo]

You people act like pet shaming signs aren't a thing on the internet.

[cloakedinruins]

You act like I actually find those cute. I don't.

[subconmodo]

Great.

Glad to know everyone here sucks.

[pouting like a spoiled child? Him? Of course not.]

[cloakedinruins]

I suppose you can view it that way. I just never saw the point of shaming an animal. It would be like shaming a planet. You can't scold the movement of tectonic plates or water spouts, why shame an animal for acting on its nature?

Methods of "discipline" involving public shaming only lead to trauma (which, at this point, I actually suspect you're going for) and/or resentment.

[subconmodo]

Pretty sure she's already got both of those in spades, so not like a little more will hurt!

[heptagram]

It's not like it's going to be diluted as it increases or something, though.

[subconmodo]

Not with that attitude, it's not!

[It's certainly worked out fine for him!]

[heptagram]

Well, if that's what you're going for... uh, don't be freaked out by weird teeth marks on your body when you wake up, I guess.

[See, she can make fun of the hat kid too sometimes. Look, she seems pretty harmless otherwise, okay.]

But does marinara have alcohol in it?

[subconmodo]

I don't think so. I mean, vodka sauce exists, but I don't know how much that has to do with marinara. I'm not a cook.

[onedrinkwithme]

Is it harmful in large doses?

[subconmodo]

Not for the digestive system, I'd imagine.
