Why Being a Veg*n SUCKS!

Ok Ladies and Gents, this topic spawns off of BreyettEyes post on "Reasons why not to be a Veg*n". This is of course a satirical approach as to why its so effen hard to be yourself with people who just don't get it. Ok I'll start.
Reason #1. Because when you kindly tell people you don't want to taste the cheese they brought into the office, they insist that you do, and when you say no thank you again and finally tell them you don't want any because you in fact do not eat cheese, they stare at you and call you crazy.
Ooo, fun!
Reason #3: It's automatically assumed that since you are veg*n and that crazy person someone knew was also veg*n, then you, too, must be crazy. However, this doesn't work for omnis (if you know a crazy omni, one does not (or should not) assume that therefore all omni's are crazy).
Reason #4:
You have to plan ahead to eat out anywhere. It sort of takes the fun out of casual dining.
Reason #5: Coworkers are skeptical if you bring in a dish or dessert for them to try.

True dat!
Reason #6: Said coworkers also "inspect" your food EVERY day. And make helpful comments such as "That almost looks like something I might eat!" ::)
Sorry, most of my food does not resemble a Hot Pocket... 8)
Vegan food is "unhealthy".
Reason #8: Movie theatre snacks are a no-go
Reason # 9
Eating only twigs and leaves gets awful boring. ;)
10. I don't care what any of you say there is no such thing as a good tasting vegan cheese. It doesn't exist.
Reason #7
Soy makes you gay
Lol!!! Heard that a couple of times.

Soy makes you gay
and um....is that a bad thing? ;D
#11 - if you hear someone mockingly say "MMMMmmmm....MEAT" one more time, you're gonna break the "I don't kill" rule.
Alternate for just vegetarians: you get bitched at by both omnivores and vegans (N/A for VegWeb, you all rule)
Reason #12:
God put animals on earth for us to munch on. Vegans are lazy s.o.b's who can't hunt so they claim to only eat veggies. ::)
I love this! ;D
Reason #13: It gets so expensive buying all that paint to throw on people who wear fur... I mean, a couple PETA members in the history of the world have done this, but it still speaks for all veg*ns. ::)
#14 Your non-veg*n friends begin to wonder if something is wrong with you and whether or not you need an intervention "I don't know (insert your name here) but you've been changing a lot lately...with the not eating animal products and cooking all weird...I don't know if I like this".
#15 - it sucks having more energy, because now you don't have an excuse or desire to sit on your fat butt when you could be outside walking, doing yoga, hiking, aerobics, biking...
Reason #16:
Now I have healthier skin, nails and hair. This veganism is doing me in! ;)
#17 Your family thinks either you are "going through a phase right now,' or that your dietary choices are just a thinly disguised cry for psychiatric help.

Holidays, that revolve around food, with your omnivorous family.
- Ahhhh... the joyous addition of insults, interrogation, and unsolicited debate to the bi-annual mind-f**k, that is a reunion with your dysfunctional family. (^_^)b
