Squid. King For A Couple Of Days Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 2940	August 23rd, 2009 at 10:35pm I know. It's sooo stupid. My mother also came up with, "it's an easyer way to have an eating disorder, takes more out of your diet" They're sooo imature, for adults.

Squid. King For A Couple Of Days Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 2940	August 24th, 2009 at 12:17am Yeah. It's like, for real? I even play sports. lol. I don't know why, not eating meat is such a big deal? I really just can't grasp it.
Sherlock Holmes Addict Age: 32 Gender: Female Posts: 10375	August 24th, 2009 at 06:09am SidKnee.: "it's an easyer way to have an eating disorder, takes more out of your diet" You've hit the nail on the head with my family.
Squid. King For A Couple Of Days Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 2940	August 24th, 2009 at 01:14pm Ahhh, you too? I am sorry, It's really just stupid. You should just be able to do it, and it be because you feel it's the right thing to do.

Squid. King For A Couple Of Days Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 2940	August 24th, 2009 at 03:30pm Haha, Nah, it's there choise on them wanting or not wanting to eat meat. I would just like they respect my decision, as I do theirs.
Sherlock Board Parasite Age: 39 Gender: Female Posts: 35331	August 25th, 2009 at 04:31am Yeah, but most people need their consciousness raised about the cruelties of factory farming & the meat industry. A lot of meat eaters just don't want to/haven't thought about it.
Sherlock Holmes Addict Age: 32 Gender: Female Posts: 10375	August 25th, 2009 at 09:22am Ikarus: You should force them into listening to Meat Is Murder on repeat! Oh that song. Oh all those memories.
Squid. King For A Couple Of Days Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 2940	August 28th, 2009 at 10:15pm But, still, that is their choice... I mean, it my was mine to look into it...you know?

No I really don't know. What's so hard to understand? She's clearly a vegetarian who doesn't have much of an ethical problem with other people eating meat as long as there is mutal respect for dietary choices. It isn't such a strange idea.

That's what I am, I just don't understand the way she typed it out 0.o.
Sherlock Board Parasite Age: 39 Gender: Female Posts: 35331	August 29th, 2009 at 07:55pm I like to try to make meat-eaters feel guilty as often as possible.
Sherlock Holmes Addict Age: 32 Gender: Female Posts: 10375	August 29th, 2009 at 07:58pm I love the way that some of them see the meat before it's killed they freak.
Squid. King For A Couple Of Days Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 2940	September 12th, 2009 at 04:20pm lol. Yeah. I can't understand that. Like... You eat meat. But don't dare meet it before you eat it. What's up with that?
iViva la Andrea! Geek Age: 34 Gender: Female Posts: 492	September 14th, 2009 at 02:55pm Ikarus: I like to try to make meat-eaters feel guilty as often as possible. Why? So you can piss them off and make them think all vegetarians and animal rights/animal welfare people are self-righteous? It's fine to express your opinion, but it's just immature to harass people because they don't share your ethics. Sure, when I'm talking to my friends I'll joke around with them sometimes and say things about how they're eating corpses, etc..., but that is with my friends and they know I'm joking. Going PETA on somebody isn't going to make them change their minds or respect you. If you don't respect their beliefs, why should they respect yours? In the end, it probably does more harm than good.
Sherlock Board Parasite Age: 39 Gender: Female Posts: 35331	September 14th, 2009 at 05:03pm I was talking about my friends and family, I don't go up to random people on the street or boycott Burger King or anything. And I do it because I want to, and most of the time I get stick from them about being a veggie & have to put up with being told what a lovely, juicy beefburger they're eating, so I'm just giving a little back.
iViva la Andrea! Geek Age: 34 Gender: Female Posts: 492	September 14th, 2009 at 05:20pm That's not what you originally said, though. So which is it? If I misunderstood what you meant, I apologize. But there are a lot of people out there I get irritated when people around me are eating meat and talking about how delicious it is, too, but, whatever. If we're at a restauarant and they're enjoying their meal, good for them.
