why are vegetarians so angry?
 
i'm not the one telling you what to eat.

feel free to eat your soyburger or tofurkey. sprinkle some bacos on if you're feeling wild.

just stay out of my grille about eating your pet. i've had it with you food nazi's.

hi_im_god 06-03-2007 03:07 PM

one more thing...

i don't go around having my filet mignon shaped like an apple and then ask people to tell me it's a "cowple".

you may need to think through why you want to eat a "tofurkey".

that's an interesting mental image...

my girlfriend's teenage son up on my bbq.

nope. can't go there. she must never know we had this conversation.

If you want to make points w/the girlfriend, it looks like some tofu is in your future...

Bon Appetit!

I suspect your girlfriend's son's vehemence is connected with being a teenager.

Though, remember, for many life-long vegetarians it's a moral issue, right up there with abortion for pro-lifers, gun ownership for NRA members, blocking the borders for anti-immigrationists, etc., etc. It's all a matter of perspective. ;)

Look at the bright side; at least he's not posting your home address and phone number on radical vegetarian websites, inviting radical vegetarians to shoot you in your own kitchen. See? It could be so much worse. All he did was hassle you at a BBQ.

I like tofu, but then I'm blessed with an Asian stepmom who knows how to cook it properly.

and they have good bowel movements, just too many.

You know how it goes, getting ready to bite into a massive head of Iceberg Lettuce, and the moment is lost when the sphincter sends it's time to dance message.

i once heard a meateater tell me when animals stop eating eachother i will stop eating them

ninetoone 06-03-2007 10:54 PM

If we weren't supposed to eat them, they wouldn't be made out of meat.

You sir, are an omnivore.

Unless you shun the vegetable kingdom. Which would be extraordinarily difficult to avoid. Anything made with wheat... cake, doughnuts, etc... We must have our producers as well. They sneak soy (from beans) in all the time in meat products that are reconstituted.

So be proud to be so catholic in your tastes. I am. I am proud of my canines. I equally proud of my molars. I am proud of my omnivorous digestive tract.

Its ma'am by the way! I know I am technically an omnivore... but I feel like such a carnivore! veggies are just those things that come along with meat, I dont really think about them. I guess pasta is not a meat and I love that... especially if it has a meat sauce!

Oops.
Sorry.
Maam.

What about dessert? I have noticed that most desserts have a plant tinge in them besides the flour. Ya gotta like dessert. Apple pie... Ice cream even has an algal component to give it texture and make it less runny. Be proud of the plants in your life. I know I am. Just not exclusively so.

I do love desserts. Ya got me there. And I like fruits and berries. yummy. and tomatos. which could technically be a fruit. And I like zucchini, especially with a little parmesan on top. and er, french fries, but I'm trying to stay away. I guess the plant I am most proud of is cannabis (especially in the college years).
