Veganism

Veganism
I have a brother who is vegan. I greatly admire veganism. I think it's morally virtuous. But I don't care enough about morals to be vegan. I'm a personal and psychological egoist (even though I'm not an ethical egoist).

What are your thoughts on the matter, dear reader?

Vegans taste of tofu.

Not good for cannibal barbeques.

I wish it were possible for people to be vegan and shut the fuck up about it.

I have vegetables with a meal, not for a meal Smile

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups

Well my brother is an exception to the usual preachy bullshit.

My mom, who is vegan, was like "Now I can look a lamb in the eyes without feeling guilty."

My reaction was "Oh please."

To each his own. 

For me, there are other matters of greater significance to take a moral position on.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.

My boss is a vegetarian but leans vegan.

I simply don't want to give up cheese or bacon.

The less the vegans consume, the more for the rest of us.
