        But it's a genre ripe for it. A meta-sequel. -- nm - Beryllium May 6, 13:20 1
        
        I'll bet they could avoid the eff up sequel. If they made it, I would endorse it for sure. -- nm - Shaun May 6, 13:20

- I never expect or demand anything either. I have sat there watching others eating after trying a bite and saying "no thanks" -- nm - dogbert May 6, 12:54 22
  - i'd never do that thats rude - SuperRustyMan II May 6, 12:55 21
    - it sucked! - dogbert May 6, 12:56 20
      - Sometimes you've got to spend time pushing food around a plate. -- nm - the liioulu without rummage May 6, 13:00 18
        
        time that could be better served driving somehwere that has real food -- nm - dogbert May 6, 13:03 9
        
        meat can be yucky too - SuperRustyMan II May 6, 13:04 7
        
        I think that's the bigest problem with what most people believe a vegetarian diet is. - the liioulu without rummage May 6, 13:10 6
        
        yes indeed a great veggie pie is nice and besides we eat lots of salad that are pure vegibals every summer - SuperRustyMan II May 6, 13:12 5
        
        hey this is my portion of this thread here! stop with the pro veggies talk. - dogbert May 6, 13:15 3

        It's still the only way I'll eat peas. 2 peas per fork full of mashed potatoes. - CQ May 6, 13:04 6
        
        peas are fantastic food - SuperRustyMan II May 6, 13:06
        
        Peas are fine with a little butter. -- nm - Love Machine May 6, 13:05 4
        
        this si what truly makes me laugh when talking about vegetables. I've been told numerous times that brocolli is really good with cheese. - dogbert May 6, 13:19
        
        Some vegetarians eat butter. -- nm - the liioulu without rummage May 6, 13:12 2
        
        a real vould probably not - SuperRustyMan II May 6, 13:14 1
        
        That would be a vegan. There are also lacto-ovo vegetarians. - the liioulu without rummage May 6, 13:17
      - well there are exceptions but just becorse i don't like it i'll still try and eat it - SuperRustyMan II May 6, 12:58
- you have no dietary restrictions. of course you're happy. -- nm - loosi in Brooklyn May 6, 12:52 1
  - I actually dated a vegan for over a year and we never had any issues (just saying) It was a pain every once in a while when we ate out -- nm - CQ May 6, 12:53
- let see how happy you are the next time i serve Inuit traditional food baby :) -- nm - SuperRustyMan II May 6, 12:51
- Because vegetables are something you have no objection to eating. -- nm - mara May 6, 12:50 31
  - you know what is the hardest part to eating vegetables? ... the wheelchairs -- nm - Zork Fury, Agent of ST.I.E.L.D. May 6, 12:55 2
    - *sigh* - Shaun May 6, 12:56 1 1
      - picard facepalm for the win -- nm - Beryllium May 6, 12:59

    - btw, *finger to nose* -- nm - dogbert May 6, 13:11
    - I never said "vegetarians suck" :) -- nm - CQ May 6, 12:54 2
      - is SHE hot???? -- nm - SuperRustyMan II May 6, 12:59
      - that sounds like something I would say -- nm - dogbert May 6, 12:57
    - That sounds right. -- nm - the liioulu without rummage May 6, 12:54
    - um, I have not commented at all on the topic. - groiny May 6, 12:53 19
      - *laughing* -- nm - CQ May 6, 12:55
      - [deleted] 17
        
        You are right about it being somewhat tongue-in-cheek. - Dr.Vermin May 6, 12:57 16
        
        see, I understand vegetarianism is a lifestyle and a life choice, I find it somewhat silly for parents to expect everyone else to adhere to their rule - CQ May 6, 13:02 9
        
        how about something like keeping kosher? or parents who want to restrict sugar/junk consumption? - b. with you. May 6, 13:06 2
        
        Kosher is problematic. If one is strict about it, then separate cookware and serving pices, chine, etc are all needed. Not to mention a way to store - TWuG May 6, 13:18
        
        Kosher is healthy or unhealthy too it's just made differently - SuperRustyMan II May 6, 13:10
        
        Agreed. I think it's Veggie Dad's lack of willingness to compromise that set people off. (me, certainly) - Vincent Vermin May 6, 13:06 5
        
        He's looking for a way that he doesn't have to do that. -- nm - the liioulu without rummage May 6, 13:11
        
        It doesn't look like either side is willing to compromise -- nm - Roger More May 6, 13:08 3
        
        True. But... - CarniVermin May 6, 13:14 1
        
        It's because he sees it as a moral issue, not a dietary one. It's the same thing as deciding whether the child should go to church when one parent is - Roger More May 6, 13:27
        
        that's becauase meat is so freaking good -- nm - dogbert May 6, 13:09
        
        Over restrictive how? -- nm - the liioulu without rummage May 6, 13:01 5
        
        "Bacon tastes *good*... pork chops taste GOOD!" - Vincent Vermin May 6, 13:04 4
        
        Bacon makes me sick, whether I'm a vegetarian or not. - the liioulu without rummage May 6, 13:07 3
        
        If you've never seen sunlight, you don't miss it either! And you don't want your kids to get melanomas, DO YOU? - Tongue-in-Vermin May 6, 13:11
        
        all types of bacon? - SuperRustyMan II May 6, 13:08 1
        
        Pork bacon. - the liioulu without rummage May 6, 13:19
  - I know, I love them -- nm - CQ May 6, 12:52 1

    - P.I Staker? Right! "Piss Taker!" Come on! -- nm - TWuG May 6, 12:56 7
      - "What's the matter Danny? You've never taken a shortcut before?" -- nm - Shaun May 6, 12:57 6
        
        If we don't come down hard on these clowns, we are going to be up to our *balls* in jugglers! -- nm - TWuG May 6, 13:00 5
        
        He is *not* Judge Judy and Executioner! -- nm - Beryllium May 6, 13:01 4
        
        "I don't know. *psssssshhhtttttt* Pub?" -- nm - Shaun May 6, 13:01 3
        
        There is no way you can perpetrate that amount of carnage and mayhem and not incur a considerable amount of paperwork. -- nm - TWuG May 6, 13:02 2
        
        I'm not asking which one you want to watch. I'm asking which one you want to watch *FIRST*! -- nm - Beryllium May 6, 13:03 1
        
        "You're a doctor! Deal with it!" "Yeah mother f*cker." -- nm - Shaun May 6, 13:05
This is what I'm talking about. Obviously not supposed to happen. -- (link) - Qale May 6, 12:49 9
- this is why it's been a headline for the past hour -- nm - Beryllium May 6, 12:50 8
  - Well discussion was based on Greece's role in such. -- nm - Qale May 6, 12:51 7
    - I'm not sure exactly what you're trying to call bullshit on. That's how the market works; news comes out, the market reacts. Suddenly. -- nm - Beryllium May 6, 12:53 6
      - More and more reports are settling in around the trading error issue. - Reagen May 6, 12:56
      - I'm calling bullshit on the fact that if a trade error can cause the market to drop 9000 points, there is still some work to be done fixing how - Qale May 6, 12:56 3
        
        I'm curious what the built-in protection/critical response levels are -- nm - Beryllium May 6, 12:57 1
        
        Obviously they really should consider repainting the entire place orange. -- nm - Qale May 6, 13:03
        
        Whoops. Stupid sexy Over 9000 meme. I meant 900 points. -- nm - Qale May 6, 12:56
      - ah, I see your explanatory posts on B2. Yes, I agree, but that's part of the human stampede factor (the emotion). - Beryllium May 6, 12:56
