Run for your lives! Here come the vegans.

[MSTRS:Me]

... It would be a good way of finding out on what is healthy ....

Says who? It's not so long since the anti-fat brigade were telling us not to eat eggs, butter, potatoes etc 'because they are fattening' HA!!

i ment on pagaked foods with all the "good for you" adverts etc.

So a 'vegetarian' who chooses to eat fish is just 'playing at it'. I didn't define the terms. There are those that choose not to eat meat (mammalian) because they do not like the texture/flavour, but fish is OK by them. They still call themselves vegetarian.

Well they can call themselves what they like but as I said they are not vegetarians. They just don't eat meat.

It's a bit like people who go on a fast and take sugared water to reduce the headaches. They believe that they are fasting but they are not.

At last someone who knows what they are about. It is precisely becasue of the moral issues that some vegans do not use animal products in their clothing. However a vegan and the original meaning of the word was associated with food, not clothing or anything else.

Spooky. There are times when I really do question de ju vue and the mental telepathy thing. I'm an Gunners fan from way back. Like I said of all the UK football teams you pick my one............spooky.

Actually do you guys know what a vegan is??

A vegetarian with the tar kicked out of them?

... sorry - as you were...

[The Pastor]

I thought a vegan was somone who said they don't eat or use animal products but in reality they do.

"its ok if i don't buy it"

MESSED!

And people who drink bubbly wines are methodeists? Frothy coffee drinkers are, perhaps, latte-day saints?

Anyway, the point of this thread was supposed to be about the endless march of the thought police who seem hell-bent to make the world conform to their joy-less norms, communism of the soul, where life's pleasures are deemed evil and to be eradicated, less anybody derive pleasure from them. If a bunch of frigid bitches in positions of political influence have forgotten how to cook food and enjoy life, then why should the rest of us be forced to eat raw vegetables and wear organic hemp underwear hand-knitted by unionised labour?

I saw some stencil art in central Wellington, and it sounds like a good choice as the motto of the soon-to-be national government;
"I'm John Key. I'm rich and you're poor so shut the fuck up."

Sounds perfect to me, although I would suggest "...you're poor and stupid..." as that is a more accurate discription of the average voter.

The sooner we get rid of the communists the better

[Mr. Peanut]

I don't mind, the government knows what's best for me!

[Flatcap]

As for Vegetarians - will you please just shut the hell up while I am trying to enjoy my feed of offal


Mmmmm, kidneys....

Ho hum.

Personally, I feel privileged to live in a society where obesity has become an 'epidemic'. It's a rare blip on the chart after thousands of years of misery, starvation and rampant infant mortality.

Amen, we don't know how lucky we are Mate... "Oh we don't know how lucky we are..."

And could we please stop electing idiots and then whinging about them?

You first.
