Save The Sea Kittens!
PETA has decided to rebrand the species "Fish" as "Sea Kittens" and it is perhaps the most ridiculous thing I have ever witnessed:

You gotta give them credit for being creative...

6.  PETA's overall stated goal
of ending the abuse of animals is a worthy one...they should be commended not ridiculed

8. PETA hurts their own cause more than anyone else.
