Have to agree.

UK version of the office I just did not find at all funny.

US version of the office I absolutely loved.

I don’t like beer/lager/ale, think it tastes awful.. But do like cider.

Taylor Swift has some really good, catchy songs that I enjoy hearing.

Grin-22 - Love Story is so good. I cried the first time I heard it.

U2 are a very good band.

People who dislike vegans are usually men having a crisis of their own masculinity and bizarrely equate eating dead animals with manliness. These same people will also dislike Greta Thunberg, and will be in favour of tax breaks for the super rich despite not being rich.

Change my mind?

I've been sort-of vegan for years and this is the first time I've talked about it. I saw U2 in 1997, and they were excellent.

I think the dislike of vegans mostly stems from the militant wing of that movement claiming moral superiority over anyone who has the gall to disagree with them, and their movement relies way too much on emotion and shock porn/"omg it's a dead animal!!!!" than environmental reasons, which I believe are way more persuasive.  

I have zero issues with vegans in general as long as they mind their own business.  But, as an aside, I've experienced several instances in my life where vegans get exasperated and complain that they have nothing to eat at someone else's house, but would never extend the courtesy of providing non-vegan options for non-vegan guests if the shoe was on the other foot.  There is an expectation in general that I've seen in several vegans (definitely not all) that they expect to be catered to by other people who do not conform to that diet, and I think common courtesy should go both ways in this aspect.

Still, at the end of the day, no one likes being preached to, and that's probably why vegetarians are left alone for the most part.

"That's interesting, SteveRambo. @FourMenInSuits visited me once when they heard I was sort-of-vegan and warned me against expecting to be catered for by other people who do not conform to my diet.
