[kj] When Veggie Goths Cry...

[ade]

You know that I'm saying - be an individual, just like us ;)
 
Mustardmit, I've never had jip from veggies about my diet, but have also had very little from filthy
meat-eaters too. I just point out that I fucking LOVE sausages, bacon, etc & they seem to
understand where I'm coming from then. A sacrifice, more so than a religion. I think when veggies
react in a faux disgusted manner at the mention of meat, let alone the sight "Ah! It's burning my
eyes!!", well they're asking to have the piss ripped, frankly.
 
Let's face it - normaltons are quite happy to just get on with life. They don't really give a shit unless
they or someone close to them is affected. I THINK TOO MUCH about what others do naturally.

Ade, I think the term you're looking for is 'Social Fascist'.
To be honest though, when veggie, it was mostly meat eaters telling me what to eat. I personally feel what you eat is down to the individual, but I do understand.  The crass possee would call me a poser for not dressing the same way..duh!
