You should imagine that the BBQ you eat today is the bomb-charred flesh of the children killed in your name.

BURGERS N FRIES

[Asap]

you forgot the img of lil wayne stomping on the flag

[Rhambuk]

I feel bad for the troops, i doubt theres more than a handful that want to be over there doing what theyre doing but orders is orders.

[Hasbinbad]

orders is orders.
Nuremburg would like to have a word with you.

I'm vegan.

Frankly, abstaining from animal products a more meaningful blow to tyranny than burning a flag, too. I mean, so you burn a flag -- so what? All you've accomplished is providing job security for a sweatshop laborer as they replace what you've destroyed. You're the problem, man.

Nuremburg would like to have a word with you.

and I would like to have breakfast at Nuremburg

I've heard you say that twice recently.. When did you decide to give up animal products? Good for you BTW.

Have you have done your homework as far as getting complete aminos? How are you dealing with Lysine ?

[Hasbinbad]

I'm vegan.
Do you still wear leather etc? Not judging at all (i do), just curious.

[Hasbinbad]

I've been seriously cutting back on red meat over the last couple years, have almost completely eliminated pork (except i just can't quit bacon for good.. been 3? months since i bought any tho), and have drastically increased my local vege intake .. I don't think I will ever go full on vegan, but I absolutely recognize what you're saying about meat products.

I have tried to shop at halal markets more often tho, which may not be everywhere, but which absolutely do not support the machine in the same way that buying a steak from a supermarket does.

[Alawen]

I don't think I could ever go full on vegan. I love cheese and prawns and milky tea.

[Hasbinbad]

oh man i love honey and half&half in my coffee

i could give up half&half, i've had some almond milk recently that was acceptable, but I could never give up the honey. or the bacon.

mmmmmmmm honied bacon.

[Hasbinbad]

i love how this is a thread where i am making fun of the deaths of people in this community and/or their family members, yet we're lightheartedly talking about food choices 3 posts later.

[Hasbinbad]

i fucking love you guys

[Ephirith]

Eating meat is one of those things where I just can't come up with a compelling reason why it is right, but I do it anyway because I love it. I've never seen a good argument for why it is morally right.

Also being 6'4 185, a runner, and a backpacker, I can't imagine how you would pack enough calories and protein for a multi-day romp up in the mountains.

[Barkingturtle]

I miss cheese less than I thought I would. If I have family in town and we go out to dinner or something I'll go a little soft-vegan and have dairy or an egg but I tell you it makes me so sick now. All I really yearn for any more is seafood -- crab-legs and sushi.

As far as maintaining proper nutrition -- it's very little effort on my part, probably because my wife is a great cook and scientist. We do add some supplements to certain meals but for the most part it's raw veggies, rice and pasta. The one real advantage of living in fucking Des Moines is we have a great farmer's market, which offers a nice variety of noms.

And no, I don't wear leather. Not so much from any ethical restraint so much as it's just tacky.

[Alawen]

Wait, no honey?! I didn't even think of that. I like eggs a lot, too.

I'm going to make myself a nice seafood risotto tonight with spring vegetables, Turtle. I'll think of you.

I think you've exhausted this source of outrage. Furthermore, I think it's difficult for even the most dedicated patriot to find justification for military actions like Iraq and Afghanistan. Eisenhower knew what he was talking about.

I think you might be on to something Holmes.

[r00t]

the flag still stands for freedom, and they can't take that away

[Hasbinbad]

it's just tacky.
Leather boots / belt / wallet is tacky?

[Hasbinbad]

to like 4 idiots, 2 of which are dead coz righteous IED's

[Hasbinbad]

And no, I don't wear leather.
Not even as a partial component of shoes etc?

[Hasbinbad]

im just curious coz you said "no" unqualified but then said it wasn't about ethics..

[r00t]

the country will be restored by ballot or bullet. human spirit has always risen against tyranny

[Hasbinbad]

lol you think americans will rise off the couch

[Hasbinbad]

this country is the tyranny which you espouse this country rising against

[r00t]

eventually they will rise, more and more see the bars of the prison everyday

we've seen the start of two revolutions, tea party and occupy, just since obama took office 4-5 years ago. will only grow as we sink deeper

[Hasbinbad]

the start of two revolutions, tea party and occupy
even *I* don't buy my own bullshit this much

[r00t]

they still doing the armed march on DC today?

[Hasbinbad]

tea party is redneck pride parade and occupy let itself be led by peace police and imploded

I doubt either was the genuine american spring from which a real revolution will grow, but some of us were exposed to tactics that will be useful if that day does come.

[r00t]

its been 17 years since Independence Day, I'm not arguing that the only thing most Americans will arm themselves with is the television remote, but 3% won the first revolution

[Hasbinbad]

3% won the first revolution
The british did not have drones.

[r00t]

they can't fly forever

[Hasbinfat]

I would have more sympathy for these "oppressed peoples" if they weren't such monumental fuckups. And no, don't try to blame imperialism for making them shitty. Ethiopia wasn't conquered or even tampered with by whitey until just prior to WW2 and it was a shithole the entire time.

If your country fucking sucks you're going to get walked on by people who have their shit together. Sorry.

Also, for every troop of ours that gets picked off, we've probably murdered a dozen of them so, yea.

You just took a giant greasy dump in the middle of this thread.

[Hasbinbad]

He's just trying to troll me, related to his insecurity with his own identity, as evidenced by his name.

Daldolma and Barkingturtle convinced me to stop trying to fight the gross ignorance regularly on display in this forum.

[Hasbinbad]

barkingturtle is fun, don't lump him with daldoma

red white and blue or are the flags natural colors?

[Hasbinbad]

im actually a big fan of using modern meaningful designs in camo colors/patterns.. i think it's pretty awesome.

[Hasbinbad]

obviously the american flag can burn for all i give a shit but i like the concept

[Daldolma]

hmm let's say flags are natural colors

[Rhambuk]

BT miles above daldoma in every way shape and form...

[r00t]

i got red and white blood cells and as the 1% im also blue-blooded

[Alawen]

It wasn't a competition. They both expressed the same sentiment and I could not argue against their shared wisdom.

[Alawen]

i got red and white blood cells and as the 1% im also blue-blooded

More like red neck white trash with blue balls.

[r00t]

I almost conceded that I has just been owned, but it seems mine stemmed from original thought and yours is a common googleable phrase

points earned: 0

[Daldolma]

i think we can all agree that this is a day for reflection upon the many great successes and triumphs of our blessed nation

[Hasbinbad]

if it's RW&B ur dum, obvs orange shades is good for deer and shit, but blue is seen really well by most birds

The era of unchallenged American global hegemony is coming to a conclusive end.

It's going to funny watching you flag-worshippers have your world crumble as BRIC ascends.

[Hasbinbad]

moar liek BRICetera, amirite?

[visage]

Oh pras Hbb flag burning. What a heroic symbolism! !!! Can I be cool to if I hate on America???

The loser is the working class in all of those countries. From a large perspective, the center of hegemony is irrelevant compared to the rigidness of aristocracy. Brazil is obviously showing signs of rebellion, but historical caste systems appear alive and well in Russia, India, and China.

i fucking love you guys

You love the fucking attention, that's for sure. Is this forum your entire social life? Seems like it.

Yes.
