: Some people just need lives if they go on here everyday and complain about Mc Donalds. Mind your own business.

: Yes, it's fun to go on and look but some of you just take it a little too seriously. I mean don't you have anything else to do. Some of you who say meat is bad, who are you to say that the other people who eat it are bad, cause they aren't. I mean who are you to judge.

If you had a cat, and I killed it, you'd think I was bad. It's as simple as that. The reason we are saying "meat is bad" is because we really feel strongly about it, like you would feel strongly if your cat was killed. So yes, we do have a right to judge!

: So here's what I gotta say: For the people who go on the internet everyday to badmouth things, get a life and when you do hopefully you'll mind your own business. And by the looks of the people you go on here excessively are probably single and I have an idea why! DISSED!

Some of us don't go on to badmouth - we go on to maybe learn a little from what other people are saying, then maybe chip in with our little bit. So what's wrong with that? And of course, for some people, this meat thing is not a silly game like you seem to think it is, it's a matter of life and death.

And, I know this might sound weird, but it has to be said, what's so wrong about being single if I so choose? We're constantly bombarded with the message from other people that you've gotta get a partner, gotta get laid and so on, or you're some kind of social outcast. I'm sorry, but that is just out of order. It's not too sensible either to fling yourselves at people, given AIDS and all the rest of it.
