Now, a lot of people who read this blog are probably not vegetarians, so those people out there who find vegetarianism detestable might not want to read this post. And people who think I talk about vegetarianism too much might want to too.
One thing that I want to get clear to everybody is that vegetarianism is not a handicap. For some wierd reason, everyone seems to think so! I even know a few vegetarians who think it's a handicap.
I also know non-vegetarians (This leaves you out, Pearlene!) who supposedly 'care about animals'. If you ask me, that's just hogwash. I remember once doing a project on 'Cruelty towards Animals'. I was presenting it to one of my friend's parents, and this is what they said.
"Animals like goats, fish and chicken are meant to be eaten. I agree, animals like tigers, lions, and monkeys should not be eaten, but these animals are meant to be eaten."
Oh, I remember how angry I felt when I heard those words, but of course, I had to smile and stand like a good girl.
I was recently convincing one of my friends to go veg, but she told me that since non-vegetarian food was cooked often in her house, she could not become vegetarian.
Now, where she lives, most meat dishes are served with a gravy. I told her that a good way to start would be to leave out the flesh and eat the gravy.
That person is now on her way to becoming a full fledged vegetarian.
I am going to become vegan in a few more years. Until then, I have to drink my milk.
I find it amusing when people give me a sickly smile and say they feel sorry for me.
Amusing, but not funny.
SMELLY SOCKS
A lady walked into a store to buy curtains.
She went up to the salesman and said, "I want those pink curtains to fit my computer screen.
The salesman mentioned, "Computers don't need curtains."
The lady said, "Hellooo! I have windows!"
