12 Days to Go,.....& about how to be a freegan

nothing worth today to write a blog entry about,...
today was the opposite from yesterday: getting up early in the morning at 6, going to work, well: working all day, little doctor appointment afterwards and then going home on the stinking bus in the middle of the afternoon. everybody is hot, sweating, and dying to have a cold drink anyway.

Since I am back on the sauce again.... we went to the Reef. The sun is shining right into our faces, the beer is cold and already makes you forget about the looong day at work or the shitty ride home on the bus.
This IS summer! And it totally feels like it!

Anyway: we need our friends' help here for a second: we were quiet amazed about what we learned about some peoples' eating habits today, just by watching and listening to out table joiners:

Who knows what a freegan is???? Has anybody heard that expression before? Well, we haven't, but we now know what it is supposed to mean.
A freegan is a vegan who is a vegan until it comes to eating free food.
Let's say: (and this is the case that we observed today at out table): the girl orders her dinner and makes sure it is vegetarien/vegan. OK fair enough. Shortly after the order was taken the server brings bread up to the table. A little bit confused she asked her buddies if the bread is vegan. He says no, but it comes with the meal.
Again, a little confused she wants to know if the bread is vegan, but unfortunately the answer to this question is out of her friends knowledge.
OK...it didn't take long until she decided to be freegan instead of vegan tonight, because why would you turn down free food?

It's easier to be a militant vegan when you're full, but when you're hungry and there's free food floating around, it's a little harder. Good work Freegan's .

"But chances are, you've heard that "other" definition of freegan. You know the one-- the one about the person who's usually vegan, but then someone gives her half a ham sandwich, and since she didn't pay for it, says it's "freegan" and eats it. Basically, someone looking for loopholes to still eat meat."

You suck. You Vegan hypocrites. I'm so sick of these vegan/vegetarian, climate change exaggerating, but do nothing about it, smelly, hemp wearing and fair trade coffee drinking reprobates.

More on climate change in upcoming blog posts but for now, you either eat meat or you don't. Political, health, trend what ever your reason for deciding not to eat meat, do it all the time, but shut up about it.

I don't want to hear it. We did not climb and claw our way up to the top of the food chain for millions of years, just to sit around smoking apple flavored Hukkahs and eating Tofu. Do I extol the virtues of eating meat? No. I just do it.
