    If people start arguing about pizza this is what I do.
    1) Go ahead and order myself a pizza
    2)Watch as they stop arguing long enough to look at me in bewilderment as I devour it.

    my sister in law refuses to eat like 99% of toppings and a few other people are crazy as fuck picky so a big family party everyone was arguing for like an hour

    then 5 pizzas arrive

    turns out my mom just ordered 5 pizzas, 1 meat lovers, one supreme, one cheese and sausage, and 2 variations on veggie pizza (one with sausage)

    NONE OF THE PIZZA SURVIVED, people get less picky when the pizza is in front of them

    well I get grains are bad for you, I don't eat them for weight loss reasons except if I'm a ren faire or its my birthday or something (I don't care if I have type infinity diabetes and one gram of sugar will kill me I'm eating fucking cookie dough ice cream and cake on my birthday)

    but I'm skeptical so many people are allergic to them

    It's such bullshit.

    Like, the girl I am with is actually allergic to gluten, wheat and most grains. And whenever she has even trace amounts (like when they flour-dust a cut of fish) she gets hives, extreme bloating, and days of massive GI discomfort.

    And almost nobody takes it seriously because people think its "cool" to be allergic to gluten. It's not cool, fuck heads. It kind of sucks.

    Which is why I just tell everyone else to order their own food and i'll sort myself out. Minimal fuss and nobody gets held to ransom by my requirements.

    Is this not common practice amongst people who are older than toddlers, or am i missing something here?

    well, having a strict moral code doesn't have any inherent value, but if people wanna vegan they can vegan, my best friends wife is and she's never bugged me

    a girlfriend of one of my friends though is vocally vegan, and that's where it gets into "oh my god shut the fuck up" town

    I love vegan food, except 'vegan' food which is always vegetables trying to be meat, or just terribly processed garbage attempting to vaguely resemble Mac and cheese, or a hamburger. Vegan cheese is a crime against humanity.

    Oh yeah, about Bronys.

    I believe that without the internet, there would be no Brony. Now let me be clear, I don't mean that the internet enables Bronys to get together and form groups and become a thing.

    No, I don't mean that at all.

    I mean that the internet is, and I believe we all will agree, generally an awful place to be a person. It's full of hatred, cynicism, intolerance, rage, terrible behavior, an utter lack of decorum, politeness, caring, or decency. A wretched hive of scum and villainy. This is so universally true that places like Penny Arcade stand out dramatically for possessing collective traits like common decency and respect for fellow members. Other places also create these safe circles, and similarly are noted for being so different from the awful norm.

    Couple this with the general trend in media of being oh so grimdark, and people just end up latching on, almost desperately, for something that's simple, straightforward, and demonstrates the basic humanity and kindness that gets you abused and shit on almost universally across the internet. Friendship, respect, and stories where people do the right thing and it works out take on an almost mythical quality in a sea of Breaking Bads and youtube flamewars and casual disgusting sexism and epic trolling.

    The internet didn't enable the Bronys - the internet created them.

    Its funny that when you and I hung out I was closest I ever have been to being actually vegan

    Now I'm getting closer to normal meat people things or whatever

    Also the most vegan hate, in my opinion, comes from people afraid of strawman vegans who will like, jump over a table and give you a pamphlet when you are about to eat a burger

    They aren't.

    Like, seriously, I think the stat is somewhere upwards of 85% of people who think they have a gluten allergy do not in fact have one.

    got points. S'my rule. Just so no one is so confused or starts weird rumors again (which they will). If I get points I leave until they wear off. It's what I do. If I'm pissing the mods off and pissing other people off, it's better for me not to be here than get banned. It's not some WOE IS ME attitude. I still read the forums and like/agree and PM. It's just best for me. It's, for me, logical.

    So stuff. I return to the shadows.

    this was all good until the last line, and now scared of the dark.

    There is a whole class of people (doesn't have to be vegan but its definitely a popular one for this issue) who go all huff n puff when the takeout menus come out. "There's nothing I can eat from there," or "you guys go ahead and order, ill just not eat until we are done here" or any other number of phrases designed (whether intentional or not) to make you feel shitty about looking forward to your deep fried porkfat battered meat pile.

    Smart people with dietary restrictions almost always travel with some food on them. If your shit is so dire that you literally cannot eat at 75% of establishments, you need to be prepared to feed yourself at any time.

    So listen to this.

    I basically support this post 100%

    My fiancee and I watched all of Torchwood last year and fuck that show is emotional.

    We would both need to watch something that was the exact opposite to calm down. Thus, we would watch about one or two episodes of MLP for every three or four Torchwood episodes because no matter how sad you are, bright colors and people winning things through FREEIIIIENNNDSHIIPPPP and silly hijinks make things better

    And put vegan cheese on a pizza I promise its good
