It's pretty funny really, in a pathetic way.
I actually read a really good column on the topic where a reporter who tried "vegan challenge month" noticed how the worst part of veganism isn't any dietary impracticality or having to learn new ways to cook, it's mostly that you have to try and hide it in public or otherwise your meat eating friends will just not stop talking about it, to a point where having any normal conversations becomes impossible.
Too bad it was in Finnish, I'd find it and link it otherwise.

Look at how this thread was started as pretty much a thinly veiled advertisement. Of course we're going to come in here like a bunch of deranged T-Rexes.
And yes we all have stories of incredibly annoying Veggies and Vegans, and born again whatevers that seem to need validation about their life choices by bragging about their life choices. that should tell you something.
