Pretty sure that there is no irony here, nor do I think your comment to your girlfriend was tactless.
Also, I have no idea why I appear to be picking apart your posts today, Trots. Nothing personal, you understand?

Yeah yeah whatever
You're right, that wasn't ironic. My comment to the missus clearly was tactless though, as she gave up meat for the sake of wanting animals to not die. Reminding her of the time-honouring gluification of neigh-neighs was A Bad Thing.

Animals are still dying though
Perhaps if you point out to her that her efforts are failing and that she should be doing more and her failure to do so is causing more death and misery, that might be tactless?

I think you've confused "tactless" with "suicidal" here old chap

Just take care not to drip the juice from your steak sandwich onto her as you tell her.
*amusing strikethough*
