Guest Anglesault Report post Posted July 19, 2003 The-vegan-formerly-known-as Karin Robertson changed her name to the same as that of a vegetarian information website to encourage meat-eaters to become vegetarians Hmm...That fucking LOON is a vegan.

Guest CED Ordonez Report post Posted July 19, 2003 Now a dedicated 20-something PETA staff member, formerly known as Karin Robertson, has decided to up her carrot power by legally changing her name to GoVeg.com. And these rather extreme, oddball tactics are supposed to influence me how? The only thing that bothers me is if she sticks with this, her name pretty much guarantees that she will marry and fornicate with a man that will be as obsessed with veganism as she is. Think of their future children, and fear for their future... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest kkktookmybabyaway Report post Posted July 19, 2003 "23-year-old GoVeg.com, a Youth Project Specialist for the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, says her new name is a great conversation starter." I bet it is. The conversations probably start out with the other person saying "Are you a total nut job, or do you just play one while dumping buckets of blood on rich Jews that wear fur coats?" On a related note, I have changed my name to ChicksWithDicks.com. It's a great conversation starter... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted July 26, 2003 Speaking as a vegetarian... that woman is fucking insane. I have a question, and am not passing judgment in any way. Why are you a vegetarian? Religious convictions? Don't like the taste? Feel sorry for the critters? A mixture? I just find the lifestyle to be completely alien, and couldn't (wouldn't) do it in a million years. Hence, I think it's interesting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Cerebus Report post Posted July 29, 2003 More PETA crap. These guys are truly insane. BTW, I remember a few years ago Activision offered a $10,000 scholarship to the parents who were willing to legally change the name of thier kid to "Turok" Morons.

I understand eating mainly veggies, but the vegetarians I know eventually had to quit the lifestyle because the lack of meat really did a number on their immune systems and thinned their blood enough over time that any cuts or bruises wouldn't heal properly.

Not necessarily. It depends on the person. Some people cannot digest animal flesh properly. Some people are allergic. The reasons can go on and on. My doctor and nutritionist say I'm perfectly healthy on a vegetarian diet. The "most people" who have to quit the lifestyle usually are the ones who don't do it properly and don't do enough research before diving in headfirst.

Guest mach7 Report post Posted July 31, 2003 Possibly. You get lots of fanatical people who just jump right into it without any research or knowledge of how to eat correctly when on this kind of diet.. and they seriously fuck themselves up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Cerebus Report post Posted July 31, 2003 I tried going veg for a while but found that since I do a LOT of exercise that beans weren't giving me much protein at all and I can't stand fish. So I had to quit...b4 radically changing your diet you really should talk to your family care physician or (if you REALLY want to change it radically) talk to a nutritionist.
