    Step 1: Don't let the whole world know you're a "real man"(?) because you eat meat and somehow that's supposed to make you really awesome and manly. Step 2: Eat whatever the hell you like and don't bother other people with it. This "I eat meat" stuff was pretty funny at first, but it's getting really old. Like you never eat a salad or really could not eat anything other than meat. I've been a vegetarian for almost 2/3rds of my life, but you don't see me posting about salads and being a rabbit X| To the people that hate on vegetarians because "they always tell you they're vegetarian": it's because if we don't tell you you'll give us meat and we don't eat that so things will get really awkward... And we won't have food. Sorry man, nothing personal. You just posted the wrong thing at the wrong time (the time I read such a post for the 1000th time) :laugh:

      Is that how you view to become a cool guy, awesome and manly? :laugh: Real man doesn't react like that. :laugh: My apology if it bothers you and sorry if it this joke is old for you. FYI, this post has nothing to do if you were a vegetarian or not. Does not mean i prefer meat I don't eat veggies at all. I eat any kinds of veggies alot. -peace out!

        Well, yes, that's evolution. If you were created to eat plant-material you would have had as many stomachs as a cow. Would also mean that your brain would need to be somewhat smaller.

            Real man? Who knows. To be a real cat, just eat mice and an occasional bird. Bonus points for getting fed by an 'owner'. :-)

            The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
            This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a fucking golf cart.

            I wish I were a real cat! Eating and sleeping all day, having an owner a slave to pet you and basically do everything you want. Most importantly, a cat is just happy with all that! Yeah, cats have it made :sigh:

              I do - but not tofu. And so does the OP.

              "I don't eat Tofu" and "I eat meat" are two separate things - Except you're riding the cliché train. From my point of view (and that one might differ from yours since I'm not a veggie and probably thus not as sensitive on that matter) connecting throwing tofu away to a veggie joke is not really obvious. Maybe it is to you, but not to me. I'm not an SME on that, but I bet there are tons of other things than tofu one can eat as a vegetarian.

              Let's put it this way, most veggie jokes are about tofu, salads and eating meat ;) Maybe this one in particular wasn't meant to ridicule veggies (although why would you, out of nowhere, compare tofu to meat and declare meat the victor?). When people think veggie they think tofu and vice versa. I'm not offended in any way, but it does get tiring sometimes :)

                  Because tofu is treated as meat replacement in todays age. From my point of view, it isn't. It's not a replacement for anything. It's just gross.

                    With all respect to you Sander, whose fault is that? I was brought up with a mom that told me: "Eat what is on the table or you won't get any food" and "I've been standing around for so and so long making dinner for you, you'd better eat it or stop wasting my time and make your own food"! If you have a medical affliction that makes you incapable of eating certain food, fine! But if you just don't WANT to eat what is served, by all means go hungry as far as I am concerned! There's too much egocentrism around today, too much "I do what I want! It's MY right, and you should all respect that". But tell other people what they should put on their table, sure, THAT they can do! Everybody should respect THEM, but they don't have to respect other people! Sorry, but it really pisses me off! People are welcome to do what they like in their own home, I don't care, but they shouldn't force it on the rest of us... This is nothing personal Sander, just a rant against a general attitude! Sorry [ADDENDA] If I get served something I don't like, I'll just eat as little of it as possible and eat more of what I DO like. I never, ever expect people to make special food for me - I would rather go hungry than put people out [/ADDENDA]

                      I'm not telling you what you should or should not eat, but if you invite me to your home to have dinner I'm going to tell you I'm a vegetarian. A good host would take my diet into account and would probably even ask if there's anything I don't eat (I also don't like corn and peas). If you still serve me meat you're not a good host, we'll have an awkward dinner and I'll happily reject your invitation next time. Likewise, if I invite you to my home for dinner I'll ask if it's okay if I cook something vegetarian (and most meat eaters are fine with it, none of my friends eats meat every day anyway), but some people really enjoy their meat (my dad and grandpa, for example). If you want your meat I'll get you your meat. It's not really an attitude, just taking each other's wishes into account.

                        So I should cook special food for you if you visit me, but if I visit you, I should eat what you serve? Seriously, can't you hear the double standards there? It's nice of you that you want to cook meat for your dad and grandpa, but to be honest, it's the first time EVER I've heard such a statement from a vegetarian And I don't agree - it IS an attitude, and it comes from children being spoiled rotten these days... The attitude that other people should adapt to ME, but I don't have to adapt to other people. And it's a real rotten attitiude, because it leaves us with a world where people have no consideration for each other, the straight opposite of what you claim... An example: Young people don't stand up for older people on the subway any more, because THEY have a right to sit down as well. Sure, but somebody may need the seat more... The "I have my rights" attitude effectively eliminates all consideration to other people

                            Well, I guest it's not all that different, but I didn't say that you had to eat meat. If you read my Addenda to the first post I made, I would expect you to eat the parts of the menu you wanted to eat. I'm assuming that it is a mixed company with guests that eat meat and guests (you in this case) that don't. As mentioned, if I were going to a dinner party I wouldn't expect the host to cook any special food for me, and frankly as a host: If you have to take everybody's quirks into consideration, chances of being able to put together a menu at all are slim to none. Never mind, can't we just agree on the fact that most likely, we will not invite each other to dinner? ;)

                                  It's like C. If you use tofu correctly, you can make some great dishes out of it. If not...it turns into an awful mess.

                                    Let's put it this way, most veggie jokes are about tofu, salads and eating meat ;) Maybe this one in particular wasn't meant to ridicule veggies (although why would you, out of nowhere, compare tofu to meat and declare meat the victor?). When people think veggie they think tofu and vice versa. I'm not offended in any way, but it does get tiring sometimes :)

                                    That's due to the lack of real meat proteins in your diet, perhaps? ;P

                                      So I should cook special food for you if you visit me, but if I visit you, I should eat what you serve? Seriously, can't you hear the double standards there? It's nice of you that you want to cook meat for your dad and grandpa, but to be honest, it's the first time EVER I've heard such a statement from a vegetarian And I don't agree - it IS an attitude, and it comes from children being spoiled rotten these days... The attitude that other people should adapt to ME, but I don't have to adapt to other people. And it's a real rotten attitiude, because it leaves us with a world where people have no consideration for each other, the straight opposite of what you claim... An example: Young people don't stand up for older people on the subway any more, because THEY have a right to sit down as well. Sure, but somebody may need the seat more... The "I have my rights" attitude effectively eliminates all consideration to other people

                                        I'd say that:

                                        goto the_fridge_and_get_something_else

                                        Is both good C usage and good tofu usage.
