Some people make their own karma, and this entitled parent seems to be one of those people. She decided to do her neighbor a solid and go trick-or-treating with both the neighbor's kids and her own while the neighbor was busy at work. For the purposes of this story, it's important to note that this entitled parent is also a loud-and-proud vegan. Despite the fact that she initially claimed to be taking care of her neighbor's kids out of the goodness of her heart, she decided to impose a “tax' an…

This family is having a major argument over what to eat for a holiday meal ! Each family has their own unique traditions and menus for their holidays. For many people, the meat depends on the holiday: for some, ham is reserved for Easter, while cooking a big turkey is reserved for Thanksgiving and Christmas. You've got to have a lot of side dishes too: many people eat mashed potatoes, green beans, cornbread, cranberry sauce, collard greens, sweet yams, beans, or myriad other dishes. That way, e…

Is seafood vegan?

People tend to get a little bit nutty over their dietary preferences. Still, there's a difference between a preference and a requirement… “I don't eat legumes because they make me a little gassy” is an entirely different ballpark than “Even a speck of gluten will cause my immune system to attack my organs or ”All the liquid in my blood will leave my blood vessels if this prawn touches me." Still some dietary preferences are deeply rooted in staunch and steadfast ethical quandry, so there's argu…

Not all vegans out there subscribe to the stereotype of the intense activists who try to force others into their beliefs. However, as you probably know, there are exceptions. Take the case of a woman who shared an apartment with her vegan roommate. Initially, their relationship was cordial; the OP respected her roommate's dietary choices, and there was no awkward tension between the two. But things quickly did a 180.

You can't expect everyone around you to do things your way! Look, there are many compromises people need to make as roommates. All parties need to agree to certain rules, like tidying up in shared spaces, doing your dishes, etc. These are all necessary conversations roommates need to have in order to coexist peacefully. Of course, roommates also need to acknowledge and recognize that people have different ways of doing things, and not everyone is going to align on everything all the time. You w…

A birthday cake is dividing this workplace. That's because of two coworkers who can't see eye to eye about food. People eat all sorts of diets for all sorts of reasons. For example, if you go to the doctor and your cholesterol is high, they might tell you to stop eating eggs. Or if you want to have more vegetables and less red meat, you might start eating fish in place of burgers. Everyone eats in their own unique ways, and has their own specific likes and dislikes. But for some reason, people…

Vegans always have to tell everyone they're vegan and they incessantly force their vegan-ness on everyone around them. The Holy Crusade of veganism is a plague of misplaced good-intentions, which is all fun and games until we find families caught in the cross-hairs.

When this DM made a post about a player's interesting request, they had no idea it would capture the attention of the DND community . Reddit isn't nearly as anonymous as people like to think it is. This DND player, u/EmotionalMacaroon169, tried to make a post on a throwaway account. They shared with the DND community that they were in a conundrum. A new player joined their homebrew game, and since she's a vegan, she wanted the game's world to reflect that. The OP was using a throwaway account s…

You've got to be cautious about trusting random people online.

Some diners have absolutely no idea what they want, and they've decided it's their waiters' job to figure it out for them.

This runner would really, really like their neighbors to be a little more understanding, though the neighbors probably think this person is asking too much of them.

It's surprising the lengths people will go to impress someone in their social circle. When you want to fit in with a social group, it's easy to begin dressing like them or talking like them as a result of spending so much time together. This woman, Michaela, did something similar when she met her coworker Sheila, who's a strict vegan. Michaela then also began to have a “ vegan lifestyle ,” and started posting about it on social media. However, her boyfriend, who wrote the post, noticed that Mic…

As the dungeon master of a longstanding Dungeons & Dragons campaign, this person isn't sure how to respond after receiving a startling request from a brand new player. Using a throwaway account, u/EmotionalMacaroon169 wrote to the r/DND subreddit asking for some advice. The internet doesn't always provide the nuance needed in these scenarios, but people in the comments seemingly understood both sides of the issue. Is this vegan player wrong for demanding a universe that suits her needs at the e…

“I told her it was just a joke but she was pissed and now months after the wedding she won't talk to me”

This bride discovered that her fiancé had gone behind her back and canceled the vegan meals that she had ordered. This put the couple in a dicey situation and ultimately would lead to the bride calling the marriage off completely.
