7. All I got from this thread was
Poor piggies :(

I wish I had the willpower to be vegan.

9. They get ugly by the time they kill 'em.
Sheepies and bunnies stay cute and fuzzy on the other hand, so it's not OK to kill them.

27. You don't have to be a vegan...
to save piggies, you can just be a lacto-ovo vegetarian like me. A good stash of Morningstar Farms "sausage" links keeps my sausage jones completely at bay. I had already been a veghead for years before I began to read about the high intelligence level of pigs, and got to know a few of them up close and personally. All that just reinforced my decision to go veg.

That picture reminded me of a terrible experience in Freshman year of high school during orientation week. I was stuffed into a phone booth under the phone shelp itself -- and a zillion other girls were packed in until the booth was full. :scared: I know exactly how those por pigs feel!

12. I've seen both the beer cooler scooter and the
dogsled scooter. Both VERY cool, especially if you get the beer cooler scooter supercharged, but the problem with the dogs are that you have to feed them and pick up their poop.

21. Indeed
I agree.

But apparently cuisine--hence the economy--in his part of the world isn't leaning towards veganism quite yet.

23. It's not about eating them or not
It's about some sense of treating living creatures with a speck of humanity.

19. Oh, I like the "green" machine
Very carbon-friendly. But the hover-scooter is cool.

The pigs are completely out. No vegan would be caught dead on one of those.

20. I should hope not! Vegans are faster and smarter than pigs, for one thing.
