Good morning, please have a thought you probably never had before.

Chiropracty / Chiropractics is all fake.
It’s at best pseudoscience and a scam, and also an actual cult

Ravioli is a sandwich.

OK, yeah, I'm doing northern mainland Greek salad: tomatoes, cukes, cheese, olives. And onions.
Legitimately recommend giving the Cretan version a go, it's the perfection of the dish IMO
Though sadly unless you're actually having it somewhere in the Mediterranean, the tomatoes just don't hit the same

For me, it's not the pineapple, it's that Hawaiian pizza is bad. Pineapple, jalapenos, and pepperoni is a great combo.
I quite like pineapple and feta. Nice sweet and salty combo.

I have an in-law who's a vegan and explained it as "if I consume less there's a tiny bit less cruelty. A tiny bit less demand." I like that. It's not about purity. It's about trying.
I'm still not vegan. I suppose that doesn't say good things about me.
I can see where your in-law's coming from, but to put a finer point on it:
Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals.
That's why vegans aren't interested in "cruelty free" animal products. It's not just the fact that there is still a lot of cruelty involved; we're opposed to animal exploitation regardless. Veganism naturally came out of the animal rights movement.

It is, but I felt you’d done the “5 words” bit nicely in the first place. Consider it more of “five words and a bit of a foot-note”

I agree with Alex O’Connor. Yes, they’re right, but also, fuck that, I don’t care.
It's nice when as a society we decide whose lives matter and whos don't
-
Hot dogs aren't open-faced sandwiches. The bun is split open; the sausage lies within, not atop a sole piece of bread.
And that's not even addressing the fact that "open-faced sandwich" is an oxymoron. By that logic, a slice of [proper NY] pizza is a sandwich as much as a taco, as they are folded and consumed in the same manner, which is clearly ludicrous.
They're small sausage heroes or hoagies, which are types of sandwiches.

no a sandwich is a variation of pop tart.

wrote last edited by [email protected]We all do. Some people just extend that that circle larger than others.
Carnivores/omnivores extend it to most humans.
Pescatarians to mammals with regard to food, but often not to other mild inconveniences like pest control.
Vegetarians to the rest of animals with the same caveat.
Jains to animals with fewer caveats, but not to bacteria, plants, or fungus.
And we’re distant cousins of all of these.
There are arguments to be made for each line, like sapience, sentience, consciousness, and pain response, but the line chosen is largely arbitrary.

Yes, hot dogs are indeed sausage sandwiches.

It's an empanada.

And vegans?

wrote last edited by [email protected]Somewhere between vegetarians and jains, depending on how much they respect the right to life of non-mammal animals (roaches, mosquitos, ants, etc) outside of food contexts. But veganism isn’t generally a distinction from vegetarianism with regard to right to life, just rights more broadly, so it’s on a somewhat different axis. Many seem only concerned with “cute” animals (i.e. mammals and a small subset of marine animals) outside of food contexts, but I’m sure there are some who wouldn’t bug-bomb their house. I doubt many sweep the ground in front of them to avoid stepping on bugs, like devout Jains. In fact, most vegans would consider that extreme, which betrays their bias towards the cute animals that deserve to live, since they’d absolutely go out of their way to not step on one of their preferred species.

Corn.
Tomatoes.
Fruit? Vegetable?
No.
Fruigetable.

If a pop-tart is a ravioli, have you tried drowning it in tomato sauce and gratinee it with mozarella?
if by tomato sauce you mean frosting or nutella or jam, and by mozzarella you mean chocolate shavings or bits of sweet fruit or powdered sugar....
yes.

Closer to a crustable

Look, religion is one thing, science is another.
Jainism is a religion, as peaceful as it is, it also has it's flaws. Some jains use dairy products because it is generally acceptable, though with modern practices it obviously violates their core principles, but loopholes like that are common to religions.
Veganism is pretty simple and practical, it is all about reducing harm. Of course each vegan has their own interpretation of what constitutes as unnecessary harm and what doesn't, but it is rooted in our scientific understanding of who can actually be harmed.
It is far more than a diet, it is the understanding that my wants are not above others needs and rights, human or otherwise.
The way I see it, Veganism is the most moral framework that is rooted in reality.

H2G2 is not funny.

Big Bang Theory is funny.
- EDIT: Wait, I have more:
GNU is bloated beyond belief.
Painted-on eyebrows look sexy.No one can tell your glue-on eyelashes are fake.
In fact, most guys really do just think your face normally looks like that without a 1/4 lb of foundation!
Just like how every guy totally believes their dudebro friend can afford that new E-Class by making the same pay you do, he just budgets better and is really dedicated to the grindset.
Yep, we're all 100% sure that new ride will just scream 'I am a responsible and succesful potential mate.'
