(click billboard) The vegan boobs say they wanted to erect (heh) this billboard in Denver for the upcoming (heh) National Cattle Industry convention, but were rejected by two sign companies. Again, like usual, this is bullshit.

Do you have an irrational dislike of all vegetarians, or has PETA done something in particular to piss you off? Either way - your site is interesting and amusing, but that enjoyment is dulled by what seems be a knee-jerk dislike of a whole class of people.
I love vegans. PETA's advertising is often horrendously sexist and just plain fucking bad. They could really use an ad agency, or freelancers (I'm available!). Re: the sexism, do a Google search, and see that my opinion is shared by many.
Hey, that's a fair and coherent response. I am a vegan that is personally annoyed by PETA. I think there are other groups who are more thoughtfully advocating the message.
Thanks.
Odd, because thoughts of PETA can cause the same problem in me.
