I was just eating salami and i started thinking about Charlottes Web then about pigs and i was like " oh god, this is barbaric" and now my tummys mad at me.



Any of you post pictures of meat or wonded animals or anything of that sort I'll shoot you

Ok so who wants to place bets on how long this lasts?

Anyone?

Good luck on said quest though, Ronny.

Two days tops.

Trust me. It'll last.

And I'd appreciate it if you didnt mock me

oh god... I'm goin to fridays for some steak... then to subway for a 12 inch ham and cheese sub. EXTRA ham.

1 week

**** you

I've really been considering it for a while, my best friend isa very strict vegan so i wont really have alot of trouble with it. But once you start to think about it it really is disgusting, eating meat and all. You dont need it at all. In fact you'd be better off without it.

Yeah it's all well and good to say that (not saying it's not true, you are factually correct) but doing it is a different matter.

Knowing a vegan doesn't mean you can do it though.

-AC This is just like you, picking out parts from a post to use from your own benefit without reading the whole this. And dark Envy that is really unnecessary. I can't believe anyone could use something as gruesome as that for humor. You should be ashamed of yourself

You know, you really start to see who your real friends are when something like this comes up. I would expect a little support. I don't put you down for your ways of like, I'd expect the same from you.

I guess I got my hopes up.

I am. I do care about animals, for I am an owner of a cute terrier. Sorry about the dead dog, just trying to bring the bright side of it.

the BRIGHT side? How could you claim to care about animals and post something like that for laughs, thats digusting. Grow the **** up.

I am growing..Im 13. Please know I hate deaths, and always try to bring up the bright side of it.

That explains it then.

And please reread your post. See if it makes any sence to you

Speaking of re-reading posts, Ronny...

I agreed with you then merely stated that talking it and doing it are two different things, so don't assume it'll be easy.

Obviously you must subconsciously not feel you can do it, because I never said anything of the sort. I was joking about the whole bets thing in my first post.

-AC I can do it. And I don't subconciously doubt myself on this. Bringing up something like bets, even as a joke, for someones choice of lifestyle is extreamly rude. It shows you don't trust or respect me.

well, might i suggest doing it gradually. don't quit meat cold turkey. give your system a chance to adapt to your new style.

and buy some vitamins to supplement the stuff you won't get form eating a vegetarian diet.

It doesn't show anything of the sort. Stop over-dramatising, Ronny.

Do it then, I don't care if you do or not. You've got nothing to prove to anyone but yourself. You posted the thread and I gave you my support which you chose to overlook, twice.

-AC

I thought you actually became anaemic without enough meat?

Nah, that's not true. I know people who don't eat meat or anything like that.

More often than not they're the healthiest people you could meet. That old vegetarian/skinny theory is so false.

-AC I overlooked it because I see it as said half heartedly. First your cracking joke then giving me 'support' not even you should be suprised that I dont respond well to it. If your going to support someone you dont make fun of them, ever fool off the street knows that.

Uhm, take a pill, maybe a vegan pill, but a pill nonetheless

With what people do for humour and attention in the OTF should suprises no one.

First of all, how much respect do you expect when you announce that you are going to make a lifestyle change after watching a cartoon pig? Second, if you are looking for love, respect nd support on a community forum you will be sorrily disappointed.

Yes, castigate AC because of his comments, then go look at some of the comments you have made regarding other peoples' posts or threads and then castigate yourself.

But my Mum is fat, and anaemic, because she doesn't get enough vitamin's or minerals or some crap, I'm not too sure of the specifics.. she's a vegetarian.

Well what you see it as is quite clearly not what it is.

Stop trying to make excuses for your misinterpretation. You chose to overlook it, I gave my support and agreed with you. I wasn't making fun of you either. I don't see why you're going sick over it.

Jeez.

To add to what KD said, that's exactly right. I support your choice but to class vegetarianism as something easy (which you undeniably did do) is very disrespectful to those who have worked to achieve it.

Yeah that's because of the missing minerals and vitamins. Full-on vegans take pills for that kind of thing.

Wouldn't taking vitamins in order to get nutrients by means other than your current dietary choices because your choices are lacking in thos vitamins lead one to believe that maybe you are not making the greatest lifestyle decision?

I believe only a vegan can realistically answer that.

As I've said though, from personal experience, all the vegans I have met have been many shapes and sizes. All of them very healthy though, without exception.

-AC

I have also met many healthy people who eat meat.

The thing is, eat healthy food not garbage. Don't eat a tonne of it. Get sufficient amounts of excercise. ..and you won't be fat.

Being a vegan or vegatarian ( I believe ) is more a choice made out views of animal rights or compassion than it is a health choice.

That's why I don't adhere to stereotypes of vegans.

Not all of the one's I've met have made that choice because of animals at all. They just don't necessarily like the idea of eating blood-soaked flesh that's been sitting on/in a shelf for ages wrapped in plastic only to have it rot in your stomach for a good few hours.

Morrissey of ex-The Smiths said something interesting, to paraphrase:

"Nobody can realistically argue for eating meat. The most they can say is that it's tasty. Yes, but only after it's expertly prepared, garnished, cooked, treated etc. A chair would be tasty after you did all that. You can factually live a healthier life by not eating meat."

-AC

Well, some people simply don't like meat. I personally rarely eat red meat because I just don't like it. I'd rather eat white meat if I have to eat meat.

Good luck with it, Ronny.

Meat is tasty.

read the posts. Vegans take VITAMINS for the stuff in meat they don't eat..

Meh, didn't feel like READING them all. Vegans are weird anyways.

No they're not

I wouldnt be able to be vegan though

ok ; No more questions for Ronny. Thank you Very Much

What exactly are you attempting then?

You're not eating meat...are you eating fish?

-AC

I'm still going to eat seafood for a while yes.

Originally posted by Ronny

It's my opinion, and so with that said, yes they are weird. Vegetarians too.

Originally posted by Ronny

I thought your problem was that it was harmful to animals and that the health part was secondary? That's how you came across in your first post. The health part seemed to be an aside.

Fish are animals too.

-AC

She said for a while I think it's more of just transitioning to eating no meat.

Exactly what Alana said, and before I stated that I wasnt quitting cold turkey. It wouldnt be healthy to compleatly quit right off

As long as you stand by your convictions, fine by me.

-AC

Thanks.

I went vegetarian, only for about... 4 months tho, then i ended up losing to much weight. So i had to give it up

but i hope it works out for you

That's nothing, how about the introduction to Red Dragon?

yay! go you.. im a vegitarian

Curse those cartoons!

Good luck, then.

I know a few vegetarians who say if they'd eat meat now, after not having it for so long, they would immediately feel sick and/or throw-up.

Interesting how the body works, nonetheless.
