So I planned not to invite my brother this year, because as you all know I hate him. Unfortunately I answered the phone this evening and he happened to be the caller, and in talking to my mum managed to get not just him, but his new girlfriend invited to Easter.
As a result, I've spent all evening bitching about 'he and his whore' and my mum is now torn between being really amused and telling me to stop it because I'm being horrible. (Since I haven't even met her and apparently she was raised by strict mormons - I say that's just a guarantee she'll be a whore, since its 'she was raised by' and not 'she is a')
Anyway, his whore is a vegetarian so now I have to plan an extra main meal for her because it feels rude to just feed her pumpkin and peas. I'll probably have to roast half the potatoes differently, too, because we usually cook both the potatoes and the pumpkin in with the meat.
My mum says she can bring her own soy produce if she's going to be silly, but I think its best not to look as bigoted as we are.

Nah, meat just really grosses me out. It's one thing to order it at a restaurant, but to smell it cooking is horrid.
So you're sure she's a fake- I mean lacto-ovo vegetarian, right?

Knowing my brother he'll only show up when the food is cooked.
My mum said that if she doesn't like anything after that tuff. My brother didn't mention anything about her being a special vegetarian, just that she was a vegetarian. I wish she were one of those odd ones that ate fish. I like me some fish...
In other news, a Ramen restaurant has opened in town 83 Can you eat that anymore?

Lacto-ovo-pesco vegetarians aren't vegetarians. >_>
*supposes she won't be coming to visit after all*
Ramen depends on what they use in the soup base, many have fish.

Does lacto-vegetarianism count as "fake"? I won't eat eggs. xD

Anne, I have to concur with you. As a five-year student at a private Catholic school and I've seen that most children who are raised under the strict net of their parents' religion tend to be that much more inclined to become the opposite.

Doesn't that just mean they aren'r vegan? Stop confusing me, Moo xD Well I'm hoping if you come to stay I'll have a licence by then and can drive you to the vegan store/s in Perth. Maybe drop by the harikrishnas... In the very least I'd ask my sister to do take us. She's an ex-veggie and still supports that way of life, her body was just so sensitive that she kept fainting with those pills and stuff. You see I don't hate you and you aren't dating my brother like an idiot Speaking of Haries, There's a Buhdda's Birth festival on the 16th-17th xDD Its rather defeating, isn't it Sorie? xDD |

Well, originally, the term vegetarian meant what vegan does today, a person who consumes absolutely no animal products. The word vegan was created because some dude was pissy at all the people claiming to be vegetarians while drinking milk and such, so in the classical sense, some one who drinks milk is not a vegetarian, but in the modern sense they are. I'll just call them fake to be an elitist bitch (lifelong dream right there ). |

I'm glad you've achieved your dream, Moo xD
But since you're wrong in the modern sense you should stop messing with my head.
Speaking of, I told my mum that we should either buy a slap of Tofu and just serve it up as a giant brick for funsies, or cut it into little cubes and die them pink so it looks like there are chunks of ham in the pasta.

No, not ham in the pasta! Vegetarians always like it when their food products look/taste like something else. Hence the invention of Tofurky and Soyrizo.

Well I don't think anyone could live off of straight soy for long periods of time xD It would just kill your taste buds.

Only when it inconveniences me by making me make an extra dish, even if it only have five minutes of prep and five of cooking.
*doesn't really care if people choose to be vegetarian*
