What is the sound of Noah losing another can of Dr. Pepper?  It goes a little something like this.....

It's all good, dawg.  As you can see, Noah hasn't contributed anything to this board in... ever.  So anything the man has to say is suspect.

[Limmo]

I know.  But some people need a quick whack with the cane anyway. 

AD: I don't know, I gave V a can over "Anaphylactolicious!" because that shit is funny, I don't care who you are. 

I agree that the threat of can removal shouldn't be a cause for self-censorship.  But if I can use it to punish people for being schmucks when they should know better ::glares at Noah::, I will.

I agree that the threat of can removal shouldn't be a cause for self-censorship. 

I know it's a sickness, but when I lose a can, I look back over my recent posts and try to figure out why.  I can't, so I don't know if I would censor myself if I knew what to censor.  I don't think so...

Thanks to everyone for illuminating the difference between a vegan and a vegetarian.  If it were within my powers I'd give cans to you all.

Are most Vegans like Pat?  I mean, would they read the strips dealing with him and say, "What's so funny?  Pat is perfectly reasonable and his behavior is what the others deserve.  They're all idiots except for him"?

I hope the answer is:  no.

What would be the actual difference between a Vegan and an ovo-lacto Vegetarian?

The few vegans I know also won't wear animal hides or wear/use things that have processed animals in them (like glues). Is veganism the lifestyle when it extends beyond what one eats?

Maybe it's honey?

(Also wax. No delicious candles for you Vegans!)

What would be the actual difference between a Vegan and an ovo-lacto Vegetarian?

A vegan is the opposite of an ovo-lacto vegetarian, I think, in that vegans deliberately shun dairy products and eggs. Typically prefixes in front of "vegetarian" designate foods that they do eat; i.e., ovo-lacto vegetarians consume dairy products and eggs but not meat. Where I'm confused is whether "ovo-lacto" is assumed for non-vegan vegetarians or not.

As for the leather thing, I actually don't think it necessarily falls along vegan/vegetarian lines. Not wearing leather is typically a sign of ideological vegetarianism (not eating meat because they actively think human use of animals is morally suspect), not other forms. Since I know a fair number of vegetarians who do it for health or food-preference reasons, it's a distinction that can be made. I suspect that more vegans are ideological than plain ol' vegetarians, but I don't actually have, you know, data points for it...

[AlohaDawg]

I only wear leather made from people who died of natural causes.

Is that OK?

Don't forget about gelcaps. My vegetarian friend invariably gets a headache at my apt just because I only have Tylenol gelcaps and she can't take them.

He seems to have a fixation with other peoples (and talking cats) weight.

Hare Krishnas are lacto vegetarians. But I still don't know the reason why they don't eat eggs.

Perhaps because it's a chicken's period and that's fuck*ng nasty no matter what religion you are.

[AugustWest]

Orson Welles once guest-hosted the Tonight Show, and guest Robert Blake called him fat.  To which Welles replied "My weight is correctable, sir, only with great effort - unlike your manners." 

Then Robert Blake shot him in the back of the head.

A tiny can to you sir!  Huzzah!

[starlight]

I consider myself a..... picky eater.

I don't eat red meat.
Can't eat much dairy due to the lactose intolerance.
I do like some chicken, turkey, eggs, a bit of cheese, etcetc though, so yeah.  I fall under.... nothing.

[rumpy doppelganger]

listen to this noah

i'm playing the world's tiniest can of dr pepper

[Decay]

I eat meat. It is an ideological thing with me, because, y'know, animals. They're all fuckers. Also I have a jacket that is probably made from several cows.

This strip is basically gold, especially since now I have two more great words to make fun of vegans with.
