For anyone who’s preparing to lecture me about making fun of vegetarians or vegans:
Genoa is NOT a vegetarian or a vegan, she just pretends to be when trying to impress people. Don’t you HATE it when people do that?
Of course you don’t. Hate is beneath you.
Bacon-o-holics, just remember to brush your teeth after or everyone will know you had some when you breathe on them for the next hour or so.
I’d like to be one of the ones that had a CHOICE in the matter. Have an extra slice of luscious chewy bacon and a pair of nice overmedium eggs for me. 🙂
Had a step-niece like that. She grew out of it. Now she runs a McDonald’s franchise in Minneapolis.
This… XD
Understand her problem. One of our Venture Scouts was Veggie and just loved the smell of bacon. I ended up getting some Linda McCartney Veggie Bacon slices just for her, guess that’s why she regarded me as an adopted Dad.
Nice of you to get her some veggie bacon, but that stuff just isn’t B*A*C*O*N. 🙁 The stuff I get is akin to sheets of baconbits once cooked. You can’t get nice chewy bacon fat fake… sigh.
You get a couple of extra points for that though, getting her some fakebacon.
I always say that I am a vegan once removed. I eat animals that are vegan. I figure if God didn’t want us eating animals he wouldn’t have made them out of meat.
My ex-wife apparently was vegetarian for a few years in high school. Then she came downstairs when her mom was cooking bacon, and that was that…
I don’t mind people being vegetarian or vegan, I just don’t have the willpower. Or ability to eat veggies.
I’m a foodatarian. The only things I can’t eat are mushrooms (make my stomach curdle) and seafood EXCEPT … canned tuna. Salmon. Halibut. Pollock.
Oh, Halibut and Pollock have to be battered and deep fried, served with chippys on the side.
How about sashimi?
I visited a friend last year who really loved sushi so I went to her favorite sushi bar and used up about a month worth of ‘cholesterol credits’ to do so. Really liked the eel. You need to try it.
I like food. If it doesn’t smell good or look good, I am leery to try it. But, beyond that, food is food. I eat it.
Thanks for taking the high road, Greg. (And don’t change the gag when the “complete Hubris” comes out.)
High road?
It’s um… hmm… a blue, subterranean, amphibian i think…
Don´hate vegan/vegetarian just question their logic and have met one even Worse who wanted to participate in the Iron-Man Triathlon. Didn´t hate him either felt more sorry for him as an “Aerian” as in getting all sustenance out of the air as if he were a tree or grass. Same faulty logic. Certainly looked as if he believed it but I think there is another name for that, ana-something. Put it on a plate if it´s nourishing I´ll eat it.
The high road gag I think is that really she´s lying and got caught. Worse though is hasn´t made the connection of what a Character flaw it is.
What I like is the gentle way Hubris let Genoa know he caught her and letting her have an easy way out. And being gentlemanly enough to look the other way for a moment so she could snag some bacon.
Maybe she will mend her ways after this one and some thought. 🙂
My dad used to save bacon drippings when we weren’t camping to put next to the fire in the morning when we were camping. He was kind of a jerk, but so are most men.
oh man that is LOW! i must learn from this wise sage!
Sometime back a radio guest was mentioning “off-menu” items you could order, like an egg hamburger where you take the egg off a McMuffin and put it on a hamburger (best done during breakfast-lunch changeover.) He also mentioned a “hypocrite” burger–veggie burger with bacon. Laughed the rest of the way to work that morning.
C’mon, some of that stuff they sell in a green box in the freezer section… I have a pretty good imagination and nothing short of a pound of real bacon, fried to chewy, is going to salvage some of those hockey-puck-like objects. And a six pack. (sorry I’m a weird creature, a medically mandated vegan, not a moral one…) Hypocrite burger, double bacon and hold the hockey puck? I could like that…
hey i`m gonna get the veggie burger with exrtra cheese and bacon( said the veggan at the BK i used to work years ago)
sigh……
