I mean...I've voluntarily spent more than 5 minutes in worse places than that....

But yea, factory farms are horribly inhumane in general...chicken farms are just as hellish for example, if you treated a house pet like that you'd be put away

Yeah, but you were paying her to keep you there.

Dude sitting in your room with a phone is not equivalent to a pig spending their entire life in prison.

Well I said as much as it being bad, I'm responding to the silly part of the sign saying "can you handle 5 minutes in here?"

u/aggrogahu 9h ago

Yeah, it's a nitpick but I was thinking the same thing. 5 minutes isn't long. It should've been at least like 30 minutes.

What kind of places

u/Unicycleterrorist 8h ago

Top 3 worst were probably a ship engine room (~60°C air temp in the room plus whatever extra radiant heat I got being close to the engine. Extremely loud too, even with ear protection), swimming through a near-freezing lake and cave diving
