I don’t give a shit if you eat meat. I don’t push my lifestyle choice on you. But whenever there is a meat option on the menu, you loudly proclaim that you are choosing the hunk of flesh because you are a Carnivore! (Actually you are an omnivore (unless you started Atkins). Learn the word. It means you eat, well, everything. I have seen you eat a vegetable (ok it was french fries but hey- they’re your arteries)—Guess i’m a frigging latin instructor now.

AMEN Latin Instructor! The ability to distinguish the difference between a carnivore and omnivore is everything. I am a vegetarian, a personal choice that isn’t forced upon anyone else. It’s aggravating when people feel the need to do this. Who gives a fuck what someone chooses to have on their plate. We are all free to choose: omnivores, carnivores, vegetarians and vegans alike. Anyone who thinks otherwise needs to get over themselves.
ocean love, if a person eats shit, what does that make them, besides disgusting i mean.
That would make them a coprophage.
even though the guys an idiot; it’s a little payback to all the sanctimonious vegans us omnivores have to put up with.
My favorite sandwich is 2 slabs of roast beast with a slab of ham in the middle.
You don’t need bread to make a sandwich ~:)
now you’re talking more, don’t forget the the chicken garnish. and of course the artery clogger, gravy.
fried chickens not a garnish…that’s desert !
Gravy is a given, I’ve never tried it…but chances are even tofu would be ok with a nice beef or chicken gravy !
A couple of weeks ago staying in a Van. hostel: Annoying Aussie vegan says, ” Hey mate why are you putting that shit in your body ” (cheez whiz) MYself, ” So that extra 20 punds on your ass is from pan-seared tempeh / miso gravy and wehani rice is it ” 🙂
silly more, dr atkins would be proud. the bread is to keep the gravy from dripping off your elbows -and holds the sandwich together! suggestion for that sandwich would be a nice ciabatta, brushed with a garlic butter and warmed few mins in the oven.
But either way, thanks for helping to make the OP’s point so well.
when someone offers me something i dont eat (meat, processed garbage) i just say no thanks. no need to launch into a rant about how i dont eat this-and-thats or how bad it is for you. just ‘no thanks’.
WOW! It’s a joke! You really don’t understand the joke?! You really think these people actually don’t now the word Omnivore? HAHAHAHAHA!
