How many of you are....?!
Answers: Aprilotarians? You know, people who are vegetarians only every April. Wake up, lots of people are doing it. Strict vegetarianism is outdated.
I used to be a Julyotarian but decided to switch to Aprilotarian because of the cookouts. Some people try to say I'm not a vegetarian, with all of there actual definitions and rock solid facts and all, but, I just ignore them because even if everyone in the world disagrees with me, I'm still right.
If you look at the definition (not a real word I realize) of flexitarian it's not all that different than Lent and I don't see people getting grief from practicing lent. In fact I'd be willing to bet that lent has spawned at least one change in someone's diet for the good whether it be refraining from meat or giving up alcohol.
Charles Tucker, I don't know if you are a new troll- or a reincarnation of one of the others. I wish you would stop.
I have just googled Aprilotarians, and not got a single result- thus confirming my original assumption that you entirely made it up, so that you could start a fight between Vegetarians and flexetarians again.
Any form of Veg*ism is good, felxetarian, vegan, vegetarain, pescatarian- all of them reduce animal curetly ( if thats what you support) , reduce environment harm ( what I do it for). ALL are good. None are outdated.
dichotomymom... We shouldn't refer to those observing lent as vegetarians. Why? Because they're not. Just like if a regular omni goes on a fast and doesn't eat anything... this doesn't make them a vegetarian.
We shouldn't refer to pesco/pollo/flexi/or any other fake word one can manage to think up as vegetarians. Why? Because they're not.
You are out of fashion, lad. Now the thing is that you have to eat half a chicken breast every Wednesday morning and then have a bowl of blood soup Sunday nights. I am the strictest vegan outside of these parameters. Japanese people have been doing this for 1,342 years. I wrote a book on it, it's in the self-help section. Next to Retard?
OK, i see your point about flexitarianism and agree that it's <expletive />, but people actually do go veggie for Lent sometimes and some of those go on to be veggie permanently, so i wouldn't knock it.
