Trivial things you don't understand/mildly annoy you

[Legends-Lounge]

Cracks me up every-time. As someone who was vegeratian for 8 years, i can certainly empathize with those who choose this lifestyle choice, but some people get triggered for no reason at all. Its great to watch.

Putting the vegan steak bake issue aside, Greg’s stuff is only marginally better than KFC, Mc Donald’s etc. Give me a small family owned bakery offering any day.

It seems to particularly attract a certain type of middle aged bloke whose masculinity seems to be so fragile that they feel threatened by it, much like the scientific evidence that men who are homophobic are more turned on by gay porn than those who are not.

Ah that explains it, we went over to Warburtons the other week and suddenly I have found myself turning into a Muslim! 

It was a Warburtons loaf as well funnily enough!

The whole concept of vegetarians and a lack of masculinity running hand in hand is madness. I'm not a veggie, but I don't cook meat at home generally because my bowels are sensitive to red meat and I don't fancy being in pain constantly. I still get a bit of stick for using meat substitutes weirdly.

I think some people also fail to realise that vegetarians are still allowed to like how meat tastes and want to taste something similar without wanting to eat an animal.

I'm not a veggie but would have no problem converting. My problem is that I fucking hate vegetables, leaving me with limited choice. That, and I like meat. Bring on the alternatives and I can at least try and reduce how much meat I eat.

Do you really think that a Greggs Steak Bake contains steak??

Never had one 

[Saxondale]

It really doesn't matter does it?  So many other things to get angry about and yet meat substitutes seem to make some people furious.

I can get the objection to halal meat. just shoot the fucker with a stub gun and stop mincing around .

veganism gets its rep from militant whiny fuckers, a minority thankfully.

if someone indebted invents veggie stuff that tastes exactly like meat I'm in

Why do some folks get so worked up about veggie/vegan options? Nobody is forcing you to eat them, if you wanna do nothing but chomp down on a nice plump sausage, crack on. You don't moan that a chicken burger isn't beef, so why the fuck is it pretending to be a burger, do you? Triggered snowflakes, the lot of them.

I think one of the biggest problems is there are a lot outspoken preachy vegans. I appreciate and respect other peoples views, understandings and beliefs. However, what winds the shit out of me is that some people try to force their beliefs on you. I don't care if someone is vegan, what I do care about is them ridiculing me for not being so.

I don't shove the fact that I'm a meat eater in your face, so don't do the same with me.

Hahaha! Fuck I nearly spat my tea (obviously you weren't quite funny enough!) out.

I did think similar this morning as I left the local temple at first light (you know because I'm a do gooder and in my spare time help serve up meals to people who have buggar all), looked across at a local bakery, the smell of fresh bread and cakes wafting into the crispy Friday air. I thought how nice to still have some sense of diversity, integration and cultural togetherness.

I remember my Indian friend (yes another one, I need to stop) saying to me once;

'you know how a lot of people say we (Indian peeps) smell of curry and other stuff?'

'yeah!?'

'like with some of my relatives, it might even be true! It's all they bloody eat! Except Grandma, she says some English people smell like potatoes, grease and bread.'

'Ha. That's awesome. Probs a generational opinion but also likely true. Imagine telling a racist "Fuck off spud"...'

We both laughed, like humans do when they just get on. Pigmentation, culture, and our "smell" did not divide us. If anything it united us. A common ground. We were friends, nothing else came into consideration

While I agree there are also quite a few people who will purposely tell people "You need a good steak/lamb chop/gammon joint mate." Then get all shouty and proclaim to everyone in the restaurant "I'm having the 64oz steak, lamb cutlets, 12 eggs and black pudding....cos I'm a man!"

No, you're just a very loud wanker, who likely beats his wife if the tea isn't on the table at exactly 5.35pm every evening and then publicly tells everyone "she never speaks up, don't know why". Also probably is bigoted to the degree that their intrigue in homophobia gives them sleepless nights, along with a very big gout problem. More tea vicar?


Sorry Darlo, was just offering some "balance".

On the news today I read that the bombing was to help protect US individuals in Iran. How is blowing up this fella going to make them safer? Surely its going to have an adverse affect and more likely endanger their lives due to revenge attacks etc?

Undoubtedly, the US have advised all US citizens who can leave Iraq to do so pronto, and no doubt UK citizens will get dragged into this as well.

The Iranians are out in numbers protesting against this. The Iranian government is going to be a lot of pressure to retaliate.
