People who think everything is a vegetable except for red meat.
Seriously, do intelligent people REALLY think that vegetarians eat chicken? Seafood? Really? Is it a mental block? Passive-aggression? What?!?

I saw a Baja fish taco advert where a guy eating one said that he was a vegetarian and it fit right with his lifestyle. If the vegetarians don't know better, how can you blame carnivores for thinking the same way?

That's really true — a good number of people are vegetarians, but still eat chicken. There seems to be a misunderstanding there. However, signing up for vegetarianism isn't like joining a religion, or having to check in with your parole board — you can eat whatever the frick you want.

As a long time vegetarian, this is supremely annoying. "You don't eat CHICKEN? Chicken isn't meat! It's poultry!" Idiot. So cow isn't meat, it's BEEF, by your logic? If it's muscle tissue, it's meat, dumbass. Fish is meat. I don't give a shit if you eat it. I'll eat meatless and you eat whatever. Comments aside.

I once had a friend who claimed to be a vegetarian except for pepperoni and bacon. Puh-leeze, woman.

Your friend may have been a bad vegetarian, but she sounds like a superfunny friend! I am going to start telling people I am a vegetarian except for pepperoni and bacon. Ha!

Woops! I spaced and meant to direct that comment TO Helenel, not assume her identity. Sorry.

I can somewhat relate to this. As someone who eats VERY little meat it's awkward to tell this to new people because they just don't get how it's possible to hate almost all meats. It's just easier to say "I'm a vegetarian" so that they'll leave it the hell alone instead of asking for a list of all the meats I will/won't eat.
