I went to fast food place in Dartmouth this morning hoping to get a certain combo— egg sandwich and a coffee. I am a vegetarian, so I ordered my breakfast sandwich without meat, which seemed to be an issue for the woman behind the counter, then I was told there was no coffee made—at 10 a.m.! Therefore, I asked for a cup of tea. I was charged more, because the combo comes with meat, and I pay for it, to avoid a worst situation.
To the woman behind the counter, you were rude and made me feel like a second class citizen, your manners show that you have very little or no education. I feel very sorry for you. If you are having a bad day, don’t take it out on other people. Be nice… and people will be nice to you. —The woman with the Spanish accent

lol silly vegetarians.
Any more vegetarian bashers ready to step up to the plate? Now’s your chance!
(Dietary bullying is pretty low, even for bullies!)
Sometimes, Suckulous, you know what you are talking about. Now, dear sir, is not one of those times.
how eating the baby of an animal is not considered ‘eating meat’ is beyond me…
also paying more for less is pretty much the norm these days.
ya… tell me about it Ocean.
the pharmacy mustn’t have been open for him to get his meds…
you know you have to plan ahead LS.
Did the restaurant have a tree outside? OP, you could have nibbled on that.
these type of idiots drive me even more nuts than i am. as i said, show me vegan that don’t suck dick, male or female, if they are so inclined to do so. and i’ll show you a fucking fool. jesus, if thes people had their fucking way, we would all be out grazing the grass, and not the kind you smoke. although that would probly be a help to them fucking fools. eat shit and die vegans. actually you really are, with all that nice bio solid craps on veggies lately, and moreso in the states and other countries.
Opens mouth, removes left foot, inserts right! The whole point of the OP’s bitch was the quality of service. Their dietary choice is not really the point. Suckulous, please educate yourself about vegetarian and vegan diets before offering your opinion, lest you make yourself look less intelligent than you actually are.
vegans don’t eat eggs, some vegetarians do…hey sis
Hey sis…surviving the holidays?
oh yes, lots of nursing and cooking and hugs/tears. lovin the bird avatar, i think my corbie will stay ‘ceptin for special occasions like pirate day. how ’bout yourself?
The cookie-nibbling old fart in the red suit gave me just what I wanted, a nice and peaceful low-key holiday. And just enough Christmas cheer!
Handel’s Messiah at the Cohn was a nice touch too.
Chicken eggs on store shelves aren’t fertilized, so they are like women’s periods. They aren’t exactly babies yet. You don’t charge women with infanticides for having periods, do you?
Also, just because she said she is vegetarian (the kind that eats eggs but not meat), it doesn’t mean she does it out of sympathy for the animals. Maybe meat doesn’t agree with her system. Who knows.
Besides, she probably just asked for no ham or bacon, which really shouldn’t be all that big of a deal. I ask for no onions and pickles at fast food restaurants and nobody gives me hard time. So all I can say about all this is…/shrug
“Chicken eggs on store shelves aren’t fertilized, so they are like women’s periods.”
That made my day.
I just saw a ad on a Vancouver bus : “Don’t give milk to kids cause it’s stolen from a grieving cow?” …stfu vegan/peta freaks
i don’t think cows grieve when you milk them. they go aah, yes i have milked cows but by hand not with a machine
OP…you don’t type with a spanish accent !
Which is unfortunate, because I really like that accent, I get to experience it every year when I go south.
But then , my Cape Breton Accent probably isn’t coming through either .
that’s the damn problem with the written word . We miss the subtleties we all pick up on, when we express our ideas which are natural to us when its spoken !

I ask for a bagel/egg/cheese at joints like that. I like it better than with the processed meat and I’ve never had a problem. Though I usually stick to timmies. This can’t be them because I would never imagine them running out of their disgusting swill they call coffee.
@ ralmn… “the disgusting swill they call coffee”
While I couldn’t agree more about their wonderful flavor…tastes like water heated in a garden rubber hose with burnt coffee beans !
I question why do you continue to drink it ! ! !
I’d gargle with nails before drinking that liquified compost.
No, no, no, no, no! Mr. More – I would never drink the coffee there. I’m not much of a coffee drinker either.
Just don’t go there again.
you just said it…you are a vegetarian,you made this decision for yourself,so,now that it’s a little more difficult to eat,you take it out on a business that caters to meat eaters not the 8 to 10 % that chose this lifestyle….what twisted logic you have…shake your head and realize that the world revolves around the sun ,NOT YOU!!!!!!
halifaxmentor: What if I don’t eat cheese? Does that mean if I don’t want cheese on my brekkie sandwich that the world will start revolving around me instead of the sun? What about folks that don’t want pickles on their burgers? All of a sudden, their pickleless request elevates them to sun-revolving-around-them status? What kind of pretzel logic is this? An intolerant mentor. Isn’t that verging on oxymoronics?
It’s a twisted and labyrinthine path that leads to noplace fun.

here’s another use for your avian friends….
put those poultry to work!

@ ralmn , sorry there… I unjustly thought you were a fan !
But since their donuts are made in Ontario (exactly how does that make them ‘fresh’ baked again ??), their coffee is unpalatable… And you go there, I was confused.
My girlfriend has me on the green tea…there’s this Japanese miso green tea she brought home from that store you pay to become a member….that’s really quite good & my coffee consumption has plummeted.
that’s a great flick admiral. he was so young^^
In rereading this bitch & the posts, I had a revelation….I NEED some vegetarian friends to go out to eat with !
I would happily take your extra/unwanted piece of shredded swine flesh & add it to my sandwich, for which I would gladly pay for your tea.
Seems fair to me, although others may disagree.
Plus, vegetarians will really prove their worth if your plane goes down in the Andes.
Mmmmmmm, free range long pig. Llllaaaaaaarrrrggghhhhhh.
Seriously, better flavour and much more tender than the standard feedlot vegetarians. >; )
The Joker on Vegans:
“They’re only as good as the world allows them to be. I’ll show you : when the chips are down, these…these ‘civilised’ people? They’ll eat each other. “

‘Nice’ to see all the vegan/vegetarian bashers out in fine, albeit ignorant, form. At least they’re consistent, never failing to trot out all the ‘cleverly’ ridiculous remarks when the occasion arises.
Why DO omnivores mistakenly feel they are superior to vegan/vegetarians?
What gives people the entitlement to slam others for having a different dietary regime theirs? Can there be a lower form of pettiness? Intolerance is a very nasty word.
well omnivores can eat everything vegans can and more….
I think that’s why.
a = eat vegan food
b = eat meat
a + b > a given b>0, which it is…meat exists.
so being omnivoristic is ‘greater than’ vegan.
🙂
it’s simple math
*I in no way endorse this message, merely provide it.
Bahaha.
Now OC, most of your bitchbuds here respect your dietary choices, not least of which for the fact that you’ve never gotten wide with us for ours. Speaking for myself, I was lampooning cannibalism AND vegetarianism. – Ivan the Entree, with shallots in a red wine sauce, pommes-frites and a terrine of seasonal root vegetables. >; )
i posted that movie because i am in love with helen mirren
Ever see “Cal”, Painey? Lovely film, HM is luminous and a great Mark Knopfler soundtrack.
no i have not seen that one. i loved prime suspect…go get ’em girl^^^
karma has a way about her.. Someone like this will likely be flipping burgers for the rest of her life. I’d say that’s a pretty good karmic asskicking…
