Okay..... If you haven't noticed the title, I'm going to keep blog fairly short today, which may or many not be a good thing. Anyways (anyways = favorite word/transition), I've been noticing the practice of becoming vegetarian quite frequent among schoolmates and fellow peers. I don't understand why people would suddenly choose to stop eating delicious meat (AKA the Blood of Man, AKA the Holy Grail, AKA Man's Best Friend, AKA the AKA.....) after eating meat enjoyably for many years. I would ask them, "so do you like to eat a nice juicy, well flavored, seasoned steak?" And they would be like, "yeaaa but it's soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo wrong to kill cows..........". Of course they didn't say it like that, but roughly reworded similar to that. And I thought to myself, first of all, your not a Muslim or something, so how could you possibly be so ignorant as to miss out on the world's best choice of food? Second of all, what will you replace beautiful, glorious meat for? Beans? Tofu? Grass? Store- bought grass? Organic grass? Backyard grass? Third-ly, what do you think cows were made for!?!?!? To look at as a beautiful animal (like a unicorn) or to raise as a pet? No, cows were made for one thing, and one thing only. To be killed, smoked, roasted, grilled, baked, and barbecued into something that goes into the hole on your face that contains teeth. And lastly, you need meat in your life whether you care to acknowledge that or not. For example, have you seen the first Twilight movie (don't judge me just because I watched the Twilight movie)? Remember that one part where that freak vampire Edward said something like "it's sorta like eating meat, you can be vegetarian, but you feel like you're missing something". Well, if you haven't seen the movie, he's human-blood-atarian, which means that he basically eats meat that doesn't contain human blood.... cuz he's a vampire.... So instead, he eats deers................ But that's not the point, the point is that can you see what it did to him to not eat what he truly needs and desires? He, or it, turns into a human figurine of sparkling diamonds when he's in the sun, and pale and skinny snowman looking when he's not. I truly believe that the people who wrote and directed the movie implemented this as symbolism directed at the foolish people out there blindly choosing to be vegan.
Meat is amazing. Period. Think of all the delicious, savoring dishes that contain meat. Yea, they all contain meat, and if they don't, then it's not food but rather "nutritious supplements". Sure people can be all like "eating meat does this or that to you", or "eating meat can help you become this or that". And for the sake of this blog, I went to Google and searched why be vegan? The third website listed quotes these as a reason;
"Weight loss, lower cholesterol and blood pressure, less use of medication, avoiding surgery, and feeling and looking great are some of the many health benefits" - Ignorant Vegan Noob
First of all, becoming a vegan doesn't mean that you suddenly become super slim and healthy. No, it means that you're not eating meat, cuz your a sad lonely vegan. If you wanted to "lower cholesterol and blood pressure, less use of medication, avoiding surgery, and feeling and looking great", it may be something mind blowing, but it's a very very very special program called Eat-Less-And-Work-Out. Becoming a vegan will not help you if you're still eating a lot, instead it will further deprive you of you crave, making you more fat and unhealthy.
If you're a vegan and reading this, PLEASE DO NOT BE OFFENDED. I'm just trying to help you. Trying to put you on the right path of life. Essentially, trying to help your life, become happier and more fruitful. And lastly, thank you for reading this blog!...................... and be sure to feed the fish at the very bottom of the page. They to are hungry.

Quite a polemic against vegetarianism, David! I like your "Twilight" analogy which cracked me up ... XD ... "Human-blood-atarian" -- what an ingenious invention! And your suspicion of the vegetarian-symbolism in the movie is very insightful ... =)
I never knew I could feed your fish! I just fed them plenty, so they should be fine for a while -- though apparently they have to be vegetarian since I couldn't feed them meat ... XD
