Dear Vegans

I love your food - I thoroughly enjoyed my nachos with unidentifiable meat-like potentially-soy protein thingies, carrots, corn, black beans, cilantro, and soy cheese, and the brown rice and vegetables was really good two (awesome satay, w00t) - but could you please STFU already about animals? For the records, no, chickens are not people too. They are chickens. And that tag line along the lines of "every factory farm is extraordinary rendition?" I get what you're saying, but isn't it just a little bit tacky to compare factory farming to CIA torture of terror suspects? I mean, I was eating my frickin' dinner, you know? Surely you could wax rhapsodic about energy efficiency or sustainability and not jump straight to torturing people?

Oh, and the beer was delicious too. Turns out it was from Bison Brewery in Berkeley, of which I have fond memories (largely due to bix02138). Mmmm good.
