Oklahoma Food Company recalls over 372,000 lbs of Hot Dogs & Corn Dogs

Well, as I've said before, you'll almost never change hearts and mind through internet arguments. It's clear we've both got our beliefs, and both are valid in some ways. I'm not gonna tell you meat is unhealthy, because I don't think it. I personally swapped entirely for moral reasons.

Anyway, I'd just like to point out how much more substantive the last few pages have been. The topic quality improved tenfold once Maxx left. I'm probably gonna go unless someone says something super pertinent.

i think the point where it starts being serious is where you actually begin to take on discussion. if you had said at the time "yeah dw guys it was a joke no worries" this might have turned out differently, though it doesn't seem like you intended the initial comment to be a complete joke

I'm pretty sure those people wrote out their thoughts expecting a response. While my original post was a joke, the core belief itself was not, and that was what was being questioned.

No, the reason why people react poorly to vegans is because the vast majority of open and/or well-known vegans tend to be bratty, unempathetic, too open (this one's for you, Planr), or just plain creepy (he keeps doing these "jokes").

This is absolutely not true. Those people are starfishs who happen to be Vegan. I've never even met a Vegan who actually acted like that.

Fun fact, Peter Dinklage is a vegan. He's said this great quote.


Most vegans are like Peter Dinklage. You don't know about them because they don't accost people on the streets about their beliefs. There will always be starfishs who do things like that, whether it's Veganism or Star Wars.

Actually if someone went into a topic about windows 10 getting a virus and said "More reason to switch to OSX ;)" people would have acted exactly the same as they did in this topic.

Kinda off-topic, but using the relative lack of malware on macOS as a reason to switch is a self-defeating philosophy, as the more people start to use macOS, the more malware authors and extortionists will take notice, and therefore the more malware gets produced.

What the hell? No, I posted that a lot of people are insecure about their eating habits, and that is why they react poorly to Vegans.

The public image of veganism was soiled ages ago and you're only acting as a further detriment to said image, especially with your lack of knowledge about nutrition, trophic levels, and general snarkiness. Speaking of which, do you take Vitamin B12 supplements?

It's troubling that you consider anything that you've said substantive

yeah that's what i was vaguely getting at; the statement wasn't a complete jape, the joke acted as a vehicle for a real statement, and so it started a discussion. but since that kind of thing is what started it, it was off on a bad foot to begin with

Well, there are legitimate reasons that OS X and Linux (both Unix based) are less prone to malware. It's not just a popularity thing - privileges are VERY tightly controlled on Unix-like systems. Windows is/was very insecure and thus open to attack, with UAC being more of a hack then anything. Unix is designed to be secure on all fronts, although if malware DOES get access to sudo, it can be more damaging than on Windows.

Also, the average Linux user tend to be far more computer-literate than the average Windows user (can't say much about OS X).

Okay, last post for now cause I gotta go.

I think Sir Dooble nailed this:

I think Maxx has less of a defense by using the age card than anyone else his age because, despite being young, he's been on this forum for a few years now. And he's pretty consistently gotten himself involved in drama and made a fool of himself.

He's had all the time in the world to catch on and learn how to behave here, but he hasn't. And being young doesn't make you an idiot incapable of learning, it just means you have less experience. And Maxx has had plenty of experience on the forums.
