Various links

[juliet]

In an attempt to clear out my browser tabs: some unconnected links:

• Forgotten Holocaust victims.
• Same-sex PDAs (both those links from rosefox).
• Vegetarian myths debunked.
• Bike parts video with bike music!
• On not being That Guy (excellent read).
• Shad Thames in 1980! (link from nou)

Sorry, my default expansion of PDA is the other one, so I was *slightly* confuzled for a sec.

Some of those links are really good.

"When someone says he's Catholic, you probably don't start the stump speech about how God is a lie created to enslave the ignorant masses, and it's equally offensive to berate an herbivore."

But almost everyone I know does that when I mention that I'm a christian, and nobody cares that I'm vegetarian!

PS: this is almost true [grin]

So much for my carrot-powered plasma yacht - I was convinced that was a runner.

they call themselves 'vegan, which rhymes with "tree men." '

You what?
Interesting that only 1 in 28 Americans is vegetarian, compared to the proportions here - I suspect vegetarianism in parts of the US is seen like religion in parts of England...

Yes... I may not be Catholic, but when D posted in his LJ about my baptism last Sunday someone just couldn't resist a dig about how he couldn't understand the numbers of intelligent, thoughtful people getting religion lately. I wonder if he realised just how offensive his were coming across as?
