This is a question Little Victories

I recently received a £2 voucher from a supermarket after complaining vociferously about the poor quality of their own-brand Rich Tea biscuits, which I spent on more tasty, tasty biscuits. Tell us about your trivial victories that have made life a tiny bit better.

I found a fly in a jar of fruit.
So I snapped a photo with my camera, and emailed it to the company. They asked me to mail it back to them for further inspection, and promised to cover the postage. So off I sent it, and a couple weeks went by. All of a sudden, I find this huge package in my mail. Turns out they'd sent me at least two of every item from their line...of canned fish products. Being a vegan (at my most normal bumping it up to just vegetarian, if the mood for pizza strikes me), I suppose this would be a negligible victory at best. Two years later, I'm still trying to figure out the logic that prompted that one.

It's a hint.
Consider switching to a more ecologically-balanced diet. Well, assuming it's line-caught fish, anyway.

Do vegan junkies have to go "cold quorn"?

I'm not sure but I do know that when they turn militant it's perfectly acceptable to refer to them as lactose intolerant.

^What she said^
In essence "I'm desperate to feel righteous and superior to everyone so I'm a picky eater."

I hardly think one pizza a year makes a difference in the long run.
Besides, at least I'm not one of those bastards who'll bitch and moan at you for eating meat as if it's some sort of moral obligation to not do so. I become a fat bastard if I eat meat, so I don't. I'd rather not have a heart attack if I can avoid it. Doesn't make me better than anyone. Shit, Hitler was insanely anal about his vegetarian diet, so next time you have some wanker going on about how, "People who don't eat meat are kinder, and better humans..." or some such, mention that.

How does eating a bit of meat make you fat?

(, Wed 16 Feb 2011, 9:39, closed)

Because of all the crap that it let's me eat. When I ate an omnivorous diet, I weighed somewhere around 240lbs, but when I cut out meat and dairy, I came down to 140lbs, which is a much better weight for someone my size (5'8"). In other words, I did something about my problem instead of just bitching and moaning on the internet about how fat I am.

Maybe it's just a lack of self-control, or maybe I had some weird metabolism, beats me. This is easier for me than working out four hours a day so that I can eat meat and stay in shape, which I don't have time for. Besides, I was only big on shrimp and crab, so it's no huge loss for me that I can't eat steak. To each his own though, I won't give anyone shit about their diet, provided they'll do me the same favour.

You should've just eaten it, I don't think a fly counts as meat.

I once had a serious conversation about whether oral sex was vegan
Jesus titty-fucking christ, we must have been stoned!

It all stemmed from the expression "beef curtains", if I remember correctly

I'm pretty sure I've had this conversation, too.
I think the conclusion was that it's okay as long as you don't swallow.
