Admit it: If you are a vegetarian, but wearing leather shoes, you are not
barefoot.

Ha! Expected flamebait, didn't you?

(Thought the place could use a little humor tonight.)

2. do you know how hard it is
to find non-leather non-ugly well-made shoes?

Thank goodness I don't work anymore so I don't have to have "dress shoes" and can get by with clunkers and tennies....

6. At the current rate of population increase;
Most people on the planet will, by necessity, become vegetarians. The planet can't keep up feeding the entire population, what with it's dwindling resources, forever. Malthus was right, I believe, he was just a few centuries too early.

14. OK, but we'll smirk and chuckle to annoy the other kids while we do.
That makes the "time out" go by faster.

9. Ahem ...
If you are a vegetarian you shouldn't be wearing a leather skirt, jacket, boots, belt or purse either ....

But ~ I'm not a vegetarian.

13. Let's not get into any more bad habits than we already have, shall we?
Ah, screw it. Let's get into as many bad habits as we can stand without them actually killing us right away. That's lots more fun.

20. But your feet will hurt if they're not the same size as mine, so
we'll be equally blistered.

17. If you are vegetarian, but wearing a leather belt, you are not
about to have your pants fall down.

22. But that sort of thing does happen. I think I like to eat chicken so much
because we had three dozen of the vile things when I was a kid, and I was the one who had to go out in the -10 degree winter weather (really that cold, it was in Vermont) to feed them at the crack of dawn every morning.

I was never so happy as a child as the morning I went out there, and all of them were claws-up in the henhouse, having frozen the night before. So every one that I eat is one less one that some kid has to feed.

(Though now my son has a pet chicken, and I have to admit she's a pretty cool bird. I guess we had the wrong breed when I was a kid.)
