Beef or Broccoli? The Vegetarian and Omnivore Thread.

[strmmrgrrl]

my point was that I get the impression that people here don't get all choked up and sad about death.

You've got to be fucking kidding me. For you to think that tells me you haven't read even 25% of this site. And if you haven't, you are in no position to make such assumptions.

I AM signed up here for a reason. Right before I posted the link on the other forum, I read another thread where people were laughing about how a woman died from the sunlight diet. That's not making light and joking about someone's death? I'm not opposed to that (I said out loud "What an idiot" when I read the thread title), my point was that I get the impression that people here don't get all choked up and sad about death. I was wrong in assuming people saw death the way I do. I'm sorry about that. I wasn't meaning that line to be insulting at all because I characterize myself that way.

That's what happenes when you don't eat food. You die.

I've mentioned this before but I have an acquaintance who's vegan (and was throughout her pregnancy) and it makes me sad that her child has never had a real cupcake.

I'm surprised her kid has legs.

I'm a carnivore but I do include vegetarian selections in my diet (mmmmm Quornnnnnn). I also cook vegetarian for my veg friends and fam.

My cousin is vegetarian and oddly enough, in about her 7th (?) trimester her doula told her she had to start integrating at least some chicken in her diet until the end of her pregnancy. Can't remember if it was low Iron and/or other nutrients.

Gee, what do you know?!
And even worse when you have a diet of paper and plastic. Oops, I mean when you're a Vegan.

You drinking plain seltzer? I know you hate water. Have you seen those Sparkling Ice drinks? They are fucking delicious,and no calories.

Yeah plain seltzer. I can drink water if I put lemon slices in it. I haven't seen those. I fucking love plain seltzer. I buy it by the case.

[Ron_NYC]

At one point my cousin was vegan then went back to vegetarian. For her birthday my aunt went out to get her a slice of vegan carrot cake. A slice. I think it ran her about 10 bucks. For a slice.

SEE WHAT I MEAN ABOUT FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS!?!?


Yo, that's something else I don't get about that Vegan horseshit. I'm not going to 7 different stores to get the ingredients to make you one fucking pancake.

Yeah plain seltzer. I can drink water if I put lemon slices in it. I haven't seen those. I fucking love plain seltzer. I buy it by the case.

I mix powdered drinking into seltzer. I love water, seltzer, all of it.

I dunno how you do the lemon thing. To me that tastes like someone poured water into a glass that had lemonade in it a few days ago.
Rite Aid and Duanre Reade have em. I've seen em in Arab Bodegas too.

Im not turning this into the allabout Dana thread - I will say this has nothing to do with your opinion and everything to do with how you handled it and yourself. You have proved yourself a douchebag here- some members will forgive and forget, others won't. You don't get this forum or its members at all if you've posted here daily and think your shit will fly. How it goes from here is on you. Don't think you duped anyone though- these are some of the smartest people around and you fucked up good

It's further proof you miss a lot as a non preemie.

Actually, a lot of what I read has showed that. Maybe it's because I only click on the interesting thread titles. I also don't read and post regularly, so again, when I do, it's on the more extreme articles (Darwin Award-type ones).

[Monter]

Dude what the dusk are you talking about??You're here virtually every day!!

[strmmrgrrl]

Nah, fuck that. There are plenty, PLENTY of death threads and non-preemie where we've expressed sadness and even ones where we've spoken to family members. I was just reading the one the other day where the husband is still broken up and came here to thank us for the nice things we said about his wife.

Soooo, basically you don't see any of it because you head straight for the fucked up/death by stupidity threads and we're the heartless assholes?

Meh.

[Monter]

Fucking phone posting...we get it, you can't take ownership of your own shit...got it. Moving on....

Speak for yourself. That opinion is as stupid as it is offensive.

I'm not the best at articulating myself. And how other people handled themselves wasn't great either. I kept trying to explain and fix the situation with no avail. I'm not trying to "dupe" anyone, my post was genuine. I don't post daily, I don't even sign in daily. Even though my sign up date is 2009, I went a few years without posting. I've only been posting here a few months, I'm still learning a lot about the people here. Reading the Darwin Award threads isn't helping, I'm sure.

It's further proof you miss a lot as a non preemie.

I swear, that's what I'm reading in most of the threads I see. Am I really missing out on that much?

[danakscully64]

I might stop in to read the Teen Mom thread or BC thread, but I never spend more than a few minutes.

Meh.

I've read those, I didn't say ALL deaths are made fun of.

I never said you were heartless assholes. I even said I agreed with a lot of the posts in those threads. Are we all heartless assholes then?

[Monter]

So anyway...Id be interested in trying a fully vegan meal...i dunno if it would be too much of a change to what im used to though. I love the idea of organic sustainable food sources like ang said. I wish it was more feasible for we poor churchmice

[angelaiscaustic]

You did say on your other board we mock and make light of death. Not the case.

I will say though, you gotta word your shit better. I very, very, rarely get involved in arguments here, so when I do, it's some salty shit being said

Oxymoron.

Try this:
http://www.food.com/recipe/egyptian-...til-soup-94673

It's really good. I had no stock so I used water, and I had no cilantro so I omitted it. I also didn't puree it, I just chopped the potatoes and everything really tiny, and halved the amount of garlic.

You say that here, but you didn't say it there. What you said was intended to put us in a poor light as to the kind of people we are.

These are people who make light (and joke) about other peoples deaths.

Thanks Ange !Im a Fucking terrible cook, but im all about adventure lately so we will see!

Make light and joke, yes, I've seen it. Again, I do it too. I didn't say of all deaths.

I'm trying! I'm really trying to make this situation better and explain what I'm trying to say. When I explain it in person, it makes sense to people who oppose my views. When I try to word it, it doesn't come out right. This is why I'd wait until the day of to write english papers. I suck at writing, I'm a fucking math person. That's why my numbers thing makes sense to me!

The point is you do it too yet you used the fact "we" do it against "us".
So you're not just a backpedaler you're also a hypocrite.

I'm done.

[danakscully64]

No, because people over there already know about my morbidness. We've discussed it in great length. That's why I was excited when I found this place. I've even talked to people from VB about MDS, in a very positive light. I've even commented that I like how we can say anything here and not be censored. That didn't work to my benefit though

Fine.

[angelaiscaustic]

DO ITTT! It's a really easy recipe. Also if you have a food processor, throw the onion garlic and veggies in it instead of chopping. Also, if you're afraid, text me

[jessielee]

Im pretty sure Im like hard core physically addicted to red meat. I dont eat it all the time, But when Its been a while, I get angry and restless. Give me a rare steak and its like a horror film.
