EDIT>>>I've just checked in my book, and no, I've definitely never had to merge a double post from crackhead. Who's got egg on her face now? Eh?
Is this your "naughty or nice" book? You sound like Santa. (Who, incidentally, also travels around delivering parcels.. The plot thickens!)
 
I've never given a fuck about winning ... I only care about being right <3 ;p

Me too, that's why I let you win =D

If someone says they're a veggie, asking "why" is a common follow-up. I've never heard a response which suggests the question is ridiculous.
 
Why?

Sorry. It used to piss me off too, not because I minded answering but I minded the inevitable moral nitpicking :D

Even if you say "I don't like it", you get "how can you not like bacon?"
 
Exactly.

They're basically asking 'err why wouldn't you meat you weirdo?'

I disagree. Only a paranoid person would think that

I think 'why' is one of the greatest questions in the universe. ever.

It's not the best but it's a start.

they eat pretend bacon and pretend sausages.

I disagree. And I'm obviously right being a veggie, and you not being one. Experience > speculation.
 
A paranoid person and one who's dietary and ethical choices have been discussed at length, unbidden, over lunch ;)



And I was a veggie, vegan in fact, and now not, so I think I have possibly more experience!
 
No, definitely not paranoia. I've been asked the same why, in the same way with the same confused face so many times. Including a thousand times by my carnivorous family

As knock says, they can't understand how you don't like bacon. It doesn't make sense to the masses
 
see my edit.

Not had server not responding for a while! Well done Tambo.

then instead of making it complicated, just explain it to them? it's not hard and it doesn't have to involve a 3 hr debate. it's a simple thing to do ... saying anything else just makes it complicated. I don't like meat, it tastes bad ,.... simples ... anything else and by your own admission it's either nontruth or just plain confusing (for others, not you)

edit

why even introduce the term veggie in your circumstance? when its only partially true and open to interpretation anyway?

'I don't like the taste of meat' is not open to interpretation and easy to say. debate over (with said person youre discussing it with)
 
You've not eaten with a load of bored old blokes at work, marmz (BY THE SOUNDS OF IT). Any deviation from their "norm" can spark hours of debate.

This is basically it.

The whole fucking diet thing is complex and full of pressure and other people's opinions. Especially people at work who have nothing else to talk or think about.

I would take says to explain what I won't eat and why. Saying veggie is easier
