REASONS WHICH I AM NOT A VEGETARIAN OR A VEGAN:

1. I DO NOT WISH TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE DE-EVOLUTION OF MAN.
Look, do you know how, according to the evolution theory, we got from the gorilla to what we are today? Full Protein. What do you get full protein from? Eating meat. How many vegetarians and vegans out there eat protein supplements? Not many, because most people don't do the research beyond, "Wahh, killing animals and eating them is mean!" Even those who do, is it the same? Not really, because meat and fish both have lots of their own exclusive nutrients, and plus, it's man made and man made foods never compare with what nature gives us.

2. I WISH TO HELP THE ANIMALS NOT DIE OUT.
What the fuck, you ask? Okay, look. The entire world goes vegan. No more demand for cows, chickens, pigs, turkeys, and the occasional duck. Now, there is no more need to house these guys, because cows are retarded lumps who do nothing but chew grass, chickens are cute but also stupid, pigs can be kept as household animals but get HUGE, and turkeys ... I hate turkeys, those mean bastards. So, where do they go? TO FREEDOM! Yay! Except ... hey, wait a minute ... FREE SPACE NO LONGER EXISTS FOR THESE ANIMALS! Why? WE BUILT OVER IT!

You'll visit them in zoos, you say? First off, oh yeah, zoos are SO much nicer than farms! Second off, how many of you have bothered as is to go to a farm and visit or volunteer? I bet I'm at most one in eight, though I'd think one in twenty is a little more right on. And who visited that farm more than once? Not many; the animals can be mean, smelly, and not nearly as attractive as children's books make them out to be.

Now, don't get me wrong, I think most of the farms are mean to the animals. The cruelty isn't acceptable, but neither is the idea that these animals aren't tasty or nutritious.

3. PLANTS HAVE NERVOUS SYSTEMS, TOO.
Plants have been proven in slow motion film to move away from scissors cutting them. Some vines you can hold your finger to and they'll instantly wrap around. Plants respond to music, water, sunlight, animals, people. So, plants can move, respond to their surroundings, and I'll go out on a limb here (no pun intended) and guess they can think, too.

So if you'll go vegan for the reasons of being nice to animals, maybe you should just cease to eat entirely. I mean, the garlic you eat is the veal of the vegetable world, because most garlic is harvested in it's early stages. Grapes are left out in the sun dehydrated for weeks to turn into raisins, I'm not sure they like that much. For heaven's sake, we drown cucumbers for the sake of our sandwiches!

I declare a hunger strike for the end of produce cruelty, whose with me!!

[So those who know me well are aware of the fact that I don't eat red meat and may think I'm being hypocritical. But see, I have health reasons for that. There was a mad cow scare a few years back so my family just dropped it from the diet. Then, over time we found that we actually felt healthier. Plus, red meat does have negative effects on one's heart, since it is the first thing a doctor will say to drop when one's at risk of a heart attack. Plus, lamb is a red meat, and I must admit ... lamb and veal are the two things I can't touch out of guilt. It'd be like making me eat an otter.]
