lou_belle,
wow, I'd just like to say first off that I've noticed a lot of the things you say, don't coincide with what you mean. You say a lot of things thinking they mean something else. Then people call you on your bullshit and then you get defensive and make personal attacks on them. Anyways, look up the definition of satire. No where does it say it has to be funny, satire is a method of mockery and my statement of "I'm not a racist, I just hate jews" was said to show the absurdity of the statement. It was in reference to you saying "I'm a vegetarian but I eat fish", which is an absurd oxymoron of statement. And who said anything about nazi's? and wtf does you studing judaism have anything to do with what I said? Can you not recognize my statement was about you not making any sense as opposed to me being a racist? I could've used any oppressed minority and what I said would still mean the same thing. Much like if fish was switched out for any other meat. It boggles my mind how you claim none of this goes over your head yet you can't seem to come to terms with fish being a meat nor the fact that my statement had really little to nothing to do with racism or the jewish people. |

sungoo..I don't know what goes on inside your head..but I jsut thought that that statement..satirrical or not was STUPID.
When satire is used...yeah, it doesn't have to be funny...but being sarcastic is usually a litlle bit of a joke. Your statement "could have been about any minority" and it would have insulted the intelligence of any person who read it. I don't really care to go on, but you talk of race like it has something in common with diet preferences...you're just ignorant. |

I was a vegan for around 10 years, and I do highly recommend it. You get to eat often (~5-6 meals a day) and in large quantities, and you don't gain weight easily. You also have extremely cheap grocery bills. When I was living in residence I used to go to Safeway with my roommate and we would carry home the same approximate weight in food but his load would cost literally 3x more (with meat and dairy) than mine... and they lasted the same length of time.
You also smell a lot cleaner. The reason I quit veganism is because I was trying to gain muscle mass... and in order to get the calories and protein required for that I would have had to eat truckloads... so I started eating fish, and whey. *edit*: I thought I'd mention that extra-firm tofu kicks ASS. You can put it in anything or eat it raw. Lots of protein! Last edited by FlorpIncarnate; May 28, 05 at 02:02 AM. |

... *bangs head against wall* 1. My statement was meant to be stupid, it was meant to be backwards, it was a satirical way of mocking your previous statement. We went over this before. 2. Look up the meaning of sarcasm in the dictionary. No where does it say it has to be funny. Sarcasm's purpose is to be blunt, a cutting remark. Again, you are recreating your own meanings for words. 3. Uh... if you read my last comment, I said my talk of race has nothing to do with diet preference. It was about saying retarded things. I could've used any medium to prove how absurd your statement was. I thought racism was something everyone could identify easily with seeing as everyone has either been victims of, victimized by or witnessed racism. 4. Like I said, people call you on your b.s. and then you get all defensive and make personal attacks on the person who proves you wrong. |

i tried cutting meat out of my diet completely in grade 9.. managed it for like 6 months i think... but i had (and still do) like allison have a really bad iron deficiency...... so my stepmom freaked out and made me start eating meat again (i fainted at school a couple times..)
i have however cut red met out of my diet... only sticking to chicken/fish.... and i eat alot of raw veggies and tofu and tofu/soy products (ground soy as a substitue for ground beef in spagetti sauce = SOOOO yummy) i also dont drink milk... due to tha fact i think its discusting.. and i like soy milk alot better... i cant give up my love for cheese though.. its just TOO DAMN GOOD... same goes for eggs... i need that for protien... but as soon as i can get my iron back up i would really like to try to be vegitarian again..... its alot better for your body... and for all those poor animals! mad respect for all of you guys who pull it off so well.... :) |

are you retarded or something? you say you have "a much broader perspective on the term meat"? how can you change ones perspective of meat? meat is meat. always will be, always has been. you can't just say fish is not meat. thats like saying whole wheat bread is not part of the grains category. of course it is. if you have moved on as you say, you have become even more stupid then kids before kindergarden. that is pretty damn sad.
not only have a been taught the next chapter, i have taught some in my medical community the ways of veganism and showed how it helps to beat some of todays worse diseases. so...yeah, carry on little girl with your retarded ways, hahah. Quote:
