Strongly suggested by the linked idea.
To participate in Inverse Hunting, you first need to turn up
at one of MaxCo's Wildlife Parks.
Our Parks are located at various locations, worldwide and
otherwise. Each park is densely populated with fierce
predators, such as lions, tigers, bears or
lawyers,
appropriate to the local environment. These animals have
been trained to associate the smell of peppermint with
food.
After the waiver-signing ceremony, you will be stripped of
all belongings, issued with a compass, a hunting knife and
appropriate clothing for the weather, and dropped off in
the middle of the park.
Did we mention that the clothing has been doused in
peppermint oil? The clothing has been doused in
peppermint oil.
If you arrive at our Reception Lodge, you will be allowed to
keep any trophies which you have collected along the way,
as well as your self-esteem. If you do not arrive at our
Reception Lodge, then clearly the trophy issue does not
arise and the self-esteem issue is moot.

"Disemboweled man found in snowdrift twenty steps from Maxco lodge entrance wearing only shoes smelling of peppermint. Claw marks of lawyers show clearly in the video. More at 11. " |
|
| |
//Disemboweled man// Most predators are quite
picky. You're more likely to find a disemmanned
bowel. |
|
| |
Your right! I have never seen the corpse of lawyer kill, just hearsay about the party of the first part. Just lucky I Guess. |
|
| |
/The clothing has been doused in peppermint oil./ |
|
| |
I hope you will exempt the standard Maxco bikini briefs that I expect come with the clothing. That oil gets things pretty warm. |
|

//bikini briefs that I expect come with the clothing// |
|
| |
What do you mean, come _with_ the clothing? |

Alternatively, participants could be issued with a veteranarian's field kit, and go out and save injured/dying animals.
Normal hunting = fewer living animals.
Inverse hunting = more living animals.
Although I could be getting overly pedantic... it could be a "reverse" / "inverse" thing. I'm sure your idea is more "reverse" hunting..? |
|
| |
Normal hunting = people hunt animals.
Inverse hunting = ...? |
|
| |
The problem is that there is no linguistically
consistent definition of inverse, reverse, obverse or
converse. It's perverse, and adverse to precise
usage. |
|
| |
Reach in and pull a bullet from a bloody and grievously wounded stag, hurl it as hard as you can into a distant rifle, retrieve the bullet from the rifle and with your bare hands shove it back into the casing. That's inverse hunting. |
|
| |
//Normal hunting = people hunt animals// In western society where there is no need, only perverts hunt animals. Normal hunting is when animals hunt such perverts. I therefore fully approve of this idea. Can the perverts all be required to wear moron Trump comb-overs? |

[xen], tomorrow I shall go and have a MacDonald's
especially for you. Anyway, everyone knows that
eating too many vegetables stunts brain
development. |
|
| |
Enjoy your toxic, perfumed, dyed, carcinogenic muck. The cows were probably fed on Agent Orange Monsanto produced Frankenstein fodder. I trust you get regular checks for (inter alia) CJD, colon cancer and Alzheimer's disease? I won't gloat when you succumb. Lead on McBroccoli !! :-) ha |
|
| |
You will be glad to know that I shall. Of course, if the
animals had been hunted in the wild... |
|
| |
I should also point out that vegetarianism - apart from
leading to transmissible spongiform smugness - is (a)
remarkably tedious and (b) invariably fatal in the long run. |
|
| |
I shall add an order of those crispy battered (and, indeed,
batteried) chicken fillets to my indulgence, specially for
you. |
|
| |
What's that you say, [xen]? "Try one of those veal and
foie-gras pasties with the larks'-tongue topping"?
Well, I was trying to take it easy after tonight's curry
(panda is soooo moreish), but I'll see what I can do. |
|
| |
Best consumed as you sit at the edge of a flat earth. |
|
| |
Yes, I do live in East Anglia. |
|
| |
If England was a person, this is the tumorous outcrop where its arse would be, whilst folk like me inhabit the control panel brain area. Ha. |
|
| |
Ooh, somebody could use some more fish in their diet. |

the hunters are post-Singularity cyborgs and the hunted are
immortal rich people. |
