This, so much this.

Hear hear! Veganism and feminism, hand in hand!!

I am not saying to hell with them, I'm saying don't ASSUME that Lightlife's dairy and egg sources are ethical from an animal welfare standpoint just because they care about their carbon footprint and don't like GMOs - even though you've admitted you don't know the source. You've incorrectly lumped together a whole lot

Maybe for YOUR body, and maybe for the planet, but it makes bugger all difference to the male chicks that get chucked in the chopper, and the calves that are removed from their mothers, both of which happen in free range/organic/honestly-we're-totally-good-for-the-planet systems as well.

By all means - be aware though that people may think that means you only raise bulls there for the purposes of manure.

It's not a religion, but it's right there in the definition; you don't get to use the word if you eat meat. You can say that you eat LESS red meat for environmental reasons, but you don't get to call yourself a vegetarian. Come up with some other word. I'll admit there are some grey areas for some people (like

I like it - it's almost lampshading that bullshit happy cow/chicken/pig advertising you tend to see for meat products - at least Lightlife admit their happy bullshit farm is imaginary.

If she enjoys a steak once in a while, she's not a vegetarian. She's an "eat whatever the fuck I want whenever I damn well feel like it"-atarian.

Nothing a little plastic surgery won't fix! It's OK, Dr Phil will foot the bill, as long as we can film the entire procedure with those gratuitous surgery shots. Are you not entertained?!

It's great that Dr Phil will pay for the help. But does anyone else feel it's only because she was once on ANTM and it'll make great television? Plenty other addicts he could help, and he chooses the ex-celebrity. No surprises there.

The moral of the story - when a woman is talking about feminism - even if you're a gender studies major - listen. You might just learn something.

"So before having an argument, both parties need to carefully asses the depth of each of each other's knowledge before making any points. Approximately 0.05% of actual human arguments follow this guideline".

I have a Wikipedia denying male friend. I used it to prove to him that Super Mario 64 was indeed a platformer, despite being in 3D. He's is usually likely to alter his argument in such a case: "what I MEANT was...".

Yeah Guide Dogs in Hawaii wear them too because the sidewalk gets so hot. Just another training hurdle I guess!

Teehee reminds me of Simple Dog and Helper dog: http://hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.co.nz/2010/11/dogs-dont-understand-basic-concepts.html

See I don't drink soft drinks because I am thirsty - I drink them (pretty occasionally, really) because they taste good and are sweet, some of the reasons we eat desserts. So yeah if I didn't get my sugar fix from a (single!) can of coke, then I'd be likely to seek it somewhere else. Water is great, particularly if

OK, I haven't read all the comments, so I apologise if this is in there somewhere but this: "People who cite evolutionary psychology talk about evolution in the past tense—like we evolved up to this point and then we stopped." is exactly what I say to people who point and their canines and demand that this is why

Anything we do with astrological signs, we can't do with a science.

If you hire them on that premise (1 year fixed contract to cover maternity leave) then, no it's not cruel. Something may well come up in that time, especially in larger companies. Or the mother might decide not to come back. Maybe not, but it is better to be working for a year and get a good reference that to not be
