Vegetables


Ask any vegetarian, as soon as they announce their dietary leanings, people say, "Oh, really?" in the same tone of voice they'd use if you'd just admitted responsibility for the Holocaust. Strange isn't it? The behaviour of people who choose not to support the mass slaughter of other living creatures is somehow regarded as aberrant. I'm not a herbivore myself, but many of my friends are, and though I respect their decision, even I can't resist taking the piss from time to time.
The argument for vegetarianism is laid out clearly at http://www.vegsoc.org/, or if you want something a bit more hardcore, go to http://www.vegansociety.com/. For a cheap thrill you can visit http://www.jarvisproducts.com/, who are suppliers to the slaughterhouse trade, and have an extensive range of lung guns, and skull splitters, and spinal cord removers.
