Why Being a Veg*n SUCKS!

Ok Ladies and Gents, this topic spawns off of BreyettEyes post on "Reasons why not to be a Veg*n". This is of course a satirical approach as to why its so effen hard to be yourself with people who just don't get it. Ok I'll start.
Reason #1. Because when you kindly tell people you don't want to taste the cheese they brought into the office, they insist that you do, and when you say no thank you again and finally tell them you don't want any because you in fact do not eat cheese, they stare at you and call you crazy.
#19. After a heavy tofu filled meal, you want to take a nap. This must mean that you're on drugs.
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! PIP, you are too much! :D
#20 - poop should be an essential part of everyone's diet.

Cheap shot at McDreadful's perhaps? :)

Sometimes in the breakroom when you are really stressedout and tired you just want to eat the freakin brownies without thinking about it. :-\

Vegan bacon doesn't cut it :(

I actually like vegan bacon. Vegan BLTs are SO much better than omni BLTs!
#23 Vegetarian friends like to use your veganism to make themselves seem less weird and thus draw the attention away from themselves...wait, maybe that's just my "friend" ::)

Just wondering... What kind of vegan bacon do you like? I have never been able to find one that I enjoyed!
#24 You never get "meat sweats". Gotta love Joey Tribbiani!

I don't know what kind it is--I get the BLTs at this cool little veg*n cafe near campus. I'll try to remember to ask next time I go there. I'm pretty sure it's tempeh-based, though, because I faintly remember them calling them TLTs...

The damn cows are pigs are going to overpopulate the earth if we keep not eating them. And chickens.
(someone actually said this to me once!) ::)

OMG!!! This was me today. No food and a 12 hour shift (started 4:30 am ... the beauty of my job is that I can go in anytime I want before my shift actually starts, which is a 6am, and stay as long as I want). I mean I did bring a vegan tofurky sammie for lunch, but that was it. I was starved by 9 and lunch wasn't until 11 ... grrrrr. I WANTED that freaking brownie ... dang it all! ;D
#26. Shopping at a non-vegan friendly super market ... ggrrrrrr (happened to me camping once or three times). THAT'S when it REALLY sucks to be vegan. Camping, no food, and your starving LOL.

I freakin LOVE this recipe. DO NOT use frozen/thawed tofu.

People also assume you don't drink alcohol, celebrate holidays, or eat sweets!

You have an eating disorder? Oh yeah..veganism is your eating disorder.
And meat will cure it.
Oh I forgot to mention ..... Someone mentioned that "normal" people think vegans are weird. Well, they do. I'm a vegan that works in a machine shop (most vegans wouldn't choose this occupation, except for the money, as I did), snowboards, listens to metal, and dresses like a skate rat at 32 LOL. That's not as bad as my 45 year old vegan best friend, though. She's is my bestest punk friend in the world, she listens to christain music (and punk, of course), is athiast (sp?), snowboards and wakeboards, and she's a nurse LOL. Oh, and we both do martial arts (not so weird, but it depends on the person who asks about it).
31. But how do you get your calcium?! You NEED to drink cow milk!
???
Help. Srsly educate yourself. kthx.
# 29. Are blowjobs vegan?

# 30
we can't have sex or be invved with oral sex or kissing....because people are animals, and by doing any of thos things we're eating "animal product"
WHAT?~
# 31.....vegans taste better ;)
#32 whenever hanging out with my bike tam they give me cap for being vegan...and they think i's funny to make a HUGE deal abt eating that bloody steak infront of me..or the wave beef jeky in my face... :'(
#17 Your family thinks either you are "going through a phase right now,' or that your dietary choices are just a thinly disguised cry for psychiatric help.
I've been getting that lately! And the "MMMMMmmm MEAT!" thrown around by my friends. I don't get it. Why is this so hard to accept? I decided one day to stop eating meat. It's not THAT big a deal. Now it's gotta be the subject of every conversation.
Just about every one of the "things other people say/do" I've heard in the last month. Sheesh. It's really annoying.

#33 You know what the hardest part about being vegetarian is? NOT going crazy on everyone who thinks I am weird or going through a phase or crying for help or just being picky.
I DON'T CRITICIZE YOU FOR NOT PLAYING VIDEO GAMES! Just stfu already. Sheesh.
I feel better now. :)
