Sounds like OP needs to sit someone down and have a really long fucking talk about courtesy.

[QUOTE=proch;31178839]You mean PETA, right? [editline]17th July 2011[/editline] Yes it is.[/QUOTE] Yeah, just click the name of the person I'm quoting to go back and see the conversation I missed a few pages

[QUOTE=Pantheocide;31166875]Even with cooked meat it's not completely safe or healthy, so that whole bullshit argument Lord of Ears was making was a pile of horse wank "We evolved this way so clearly it's good for us!" If you don't eat properly meat will fucking obliterate you, it WILL clog arteries since it's pretty much the sole major source of cholesterol intake for the body, the most efficient form of consuming protein, which leads to problems in excess, carries some pretty nasty diseases at times, [b]including shit that can't be destroyed by heat and if you eat it raw and aren't prepared for it then you're gonna suffer for days[/b] at least if it isn't a prime piece of meat that's been handled by a pro.[/QUOTE] E. Coli. What.

Some recent studies have been saying that early humans actually ate a diet rich in plants and plant byproducts (so various seeds, nuts, fruits, etc) with meat as a supplement. Meat was not the main part of the diet, but it was still necessary. That said... this doesn't apply to every area and culture. The main reason for this is simple: meat is the most efficient form of energy, period. It takes a lot more energy to process most plant matter into usable energy and nutrients. The second is that it is usually easier to store meat (usually by smoking or salting it) than most plant products. To you this might sound superfluous, but then you probably don't live in Canada. During the winter, I don't have the time or energy to waste digesting some fucking plant matter while I'm just trying to survive the cold and get to work on time.

how could you follow years and years of human development through survival by eating meat WHEN THERE ARE BEES BEING EXPLOITED YOU FUCK

Blood orgy in the kitchen..... There is no other way!

I would totally buy a whole suckled pig and eat it sloppily on the kitchen table.

[QUOTE=Contag;31111512]Well, that's not true. The ethical magnitude of either is in the eye of the beholder. evidently for the vegan girl in OP, they're quite comparable.[/QUOTE]The argument "X is in the eye of the beholder" is a terrible justification for anything.

[QUOTE=Tacosheller;31057685]I'd leave her a note back: Dear BLANK, Fuck you.[/QUOTE] what if she was hot

[QUOTE=Pawnstick;31215461]what if she was hot[/QUOTE] Then change the 'you' to 'me'. Problem solved.

I wonder what happens if we show the girl the truth of some vegans. Show the girl PETA. Also, i would like to leave a note. Dear BLANK, Stop fucking complaining.

The little interest i had to read the notes and think through the cryptic message hidden in those words i figured she probably threw away everything and left you with some cabbage. And she's not your girlfriend. So i got a question for you, Why do you let this woman control you? Do not ever let anyone control your life, You end up being miserable excuse for human being in the shadow of someone else living their life the way they want. Now you go get your personal territory back by throwing away all the food she left in the fridge(considering she REPLACED the meat with something rather than just fucking threw away all the meat and expected you to deal with it, if that's the case then you're offically a fucking pussy) and having a talk with her, And you hold your ground. If you fail to do this you'll end up chewing on that cabbage until you move out. I genuinly feel bad for you, I rarely feel bad for anyone but now i do. Also i did notice that this threads was made 1 week ago but with the first page filled with just prank advices and considering the way she wrote the message i preasume you've not made much progress with this case.

Once again, the OP is posting it from a blog, it's not him.

Put a horse head in her bed.

If I were in this person's place, I think I would actually become a vegan, just to see what happens. How do you think the roommate would react to total and utter compliance with the request? Would there be disbelief, or is the vegan so self centered that they would expect this to be the end result of the note?

Show her this and make her insane. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmK0bZl4ILM[/media]

Ah. Old story. One of my best friends met this vegetarian... She used to love various dishes with meat, but a few months after meeting said vegitarian, she turned into one herself. (Obviously because she looked up to the individual). Now she's all "NASTY. YOU'RE EATING CORPSES". I shortened the story down. It's a lot deeper, but whatever. What I learned from the experience is to just not give a damn. I order pizzas, eat burgers and everything infront of her. What I would do, in your situation, is leave a note saying something like: "Do you have any idea about how stupid it is to want respect, when you can't respect the fact that I eat meat?". That, or just ... You know... Not give a damn, and buy more meat.

I think everyone missed the part where OP isn't actually in this situation, hence the "Source" line in the OP.

Just modified the OP so that nobody confuses the blog post with me anymore :v:

[QUOTE=fenwick;31057964]Honey is the one vegan thing that doesn't make any sense to me. They are in no way harmed by taking their honey. And they're bees. That and eggs/milk from local farms. I understand the idea that chickens and cows are kept in bad conditions in general, but there's nothing wrong with getting eggs from your farmer's market. But I don't really care, people can be vegan if they want, it doesn't bother me.[/QUOTE] As a hobby I'm a bit of an apiarist, Dad and I have seven hives. If you take too much honey from a hive, obviously they have no food source and they'll starve, but as long as it's done in moderation you are right, there is zero negative impact for the bees.

[QUOTE=MasterG;31228638]In fact, the bees benefit because the apiarist usually cares for them and makes sure the bees are safe.[/QUOTE] Exactly.

My aunt was a vegan, but after a few years of telling her that bacon was so damn good. She decided to try it, to see what being a meat eater is all about. So she tried it and a day later we got a call from a restruant that we had to pick up my aunt. Turns out she ate all the meat they had and then pasted out. She is now a carnivore and hates her veggies.

You can place statistics against PETA but none of that really matters when you realise [B]their founder, Ingrid Newkirk, opposes birth.[/B]

Ingrid Newkirk is a fucking lunatic.

[QUOTE=Ray-The-Sun;31230745]You can place statistics against PETA but none of that really matters when you realise [B]their founder, Ingrid Newkirk, opposes birth.[/B][/QUOTE] So basically she wants to entire human race to just die out and not continue anymore? Wow.

[QUOTE=Ray-The-Sun;31230745]You can place statistics against PETA but none of that really matters when you realise [B]their founder, Ingrid Newkirk, opposes birth.[/B][/QUOTE] Why the fuck would somebody oppose birth, it's just so absurd. I mean, where the fuck is the sense in wanting the human race to go extinct?
