I've come to realize that most people are drama queens, in some form or another, and will latch on to anything, no matter how foolish it makes them look, to further that.

oooh, reminds me of flying with the angry preachy vegan

Yea, but I usually don't have anything to say to the preachy vegans. They're already living in a world without bacon, and I, for one, can't think of any level of hell worse than that. No need to pile on.

I've always liked the guys who start with, "ya know, we gotta take our country BACK"

It doesn't matter if the guy is from the left or right, the rant seems to always start with that one liner

In my experience, the most vocal vegans and health-food conscious individuals are usually the ones who smoke cigarettes and drink to excess. Go figure!

I just say, "Yes, as a member of the Lakota nation, I agree."

That usually shuts them down.

Amen.

If God didnt intend for us to eat animals he wouldn't have made them out of meat.
