wow. batshit insane.

offtopic, (im gonna try to hijack wolfs thread here ) but is anyone here vegetarian? ive often thought about trying it out. as a lifestyle choice, not a political statement. i know i couldnt go full-on vegan, but i imagine that i could stand to eat a few more salads and a few less burgers. a few problems i see though:

1. eating out. even in todays 'enlightened' world, it seems to me that vegetatian dishes are an afterthought on most menus (monster bacon beefburger available with a bocaburger, upon request. oh! and we have dinner salad!)

2. protein. actually, i think the argument that vegetarians dont get enough protein is bullshit. there an abundance of non-meat products that contain plenty of protein. so i guess this doesnt really count as a problem.

3. i like meat. most every meal i eat is centered around some form of it. i enjoy cooking so it would be challenging teaching myself to cook differently.

4. do eggs count as animals?
