Being Vegan

Wife Dinner Party Thank You

[Sgt. Crackpot]

not sure if retarded...

Do you have a beef with people who have intellectual disabilities? Man, you are brutal.

nah, you're the only one I've ever clashed with.

I do have you to thank for enabling me to take almost a year of from the board. It was glorious.

[The Argonaut]

So many other people claimed credit, but I knew it was me all along. You don't know how happy you just made me.

This was well-executed

Spoiler: show

I hope you're happy, Argo. First lenny, now sarge. Who's next?

I did not do this.

[Norah]

Asher, your rebuttal?

[The Argonaut]

Eventually, I got over my guilt and realized how much of a mitzvah it truly was.

[Norah]

Sarge, your retort?

[The Argonaut]

I hope he says something anti-semitic

[Sgt. Crackpot]

Yeah another reason why Chrome is the worst. I might actually rank it below Internet Explorer. I'm very happy with Opera. Firefox on Android is OK. Chrome blows

Oh, that Argo quote was off topic. I just thought it was an incredibly stupid thing to say.

I didn't mean to vanquish Sarge.

You didn't! Because:
1- I'm sure he'll be back, probably with some joke about spending time in a Guatemalan insane asylum
2- Even if he doesn't, the credit belongs to Argo who has turned into a ruthless account-vanquisher

Argo is out of control. Who will be next?

I have never vanquished anyone.

Argo, do you lie often? Is it a habit? Is it out of control? Do you find yourself convinced that you believe some of the lies?

[Sgt. Crackpot]

I'm taking the legal approach of destroying my opponents integrity, so this case can simply be dismissed.

My A-number-1 ultimate point is that I think the vegan diet helps humans because
1) animal agriculture is devastating to the planet. methane emissions and rainforest deforestation are two really bad ones that if slowed and reduced now can have major benefits to slowing climate change

You're painting in big, bold, highly slanted strokes here. Methane emissions as a cause of greenhouse gasses are mostly coming from cows (and grass-fed cows at that), but there are so many other animals, produced by other methods, that can be eaten without any serious GHG consequences. And rainforest deforestation as a result of animal protein production? This isn't 1992. Palm oil (a favorite ingredient in vegan and gluten-free products) is a far more worrisome cause of deforestation these days.

Rainforest deforestation to make room to grow and pasture cattle. It's not 1992. It's 2017.

So don't eat cattle then. Eat bison, or chicken, or fish. Or be vegan for the other reasons you listed. But that one reason is so bogus. It'd be like if I said "The Ford Pinto is an unsafe automobile, so I've decided to give up driving."

I think Argo has something against cows. I think he wants them eradicated.

Cow tastes sooooooooo good.
