I'm not expecting to be friended or anything but I just want to say that it's AWESOME to know someone else out there loves Eustace, especially enough to list that name in their journal ♥ HE IS THE BEST.

[elendraug]

GOOD FOR YOU for being vegetarian, too! I don't regret not eating meat anymore at all.

[penguingeek]

LOL WELL. I do love Eustace, but I have to admit I kind of like Edmund/the Pevensies more. Juuust a bit ;D

& yay vegetarian! Yeah, I certainly couldn't see myself going back either. I'll admit that if I TRAVEL THE WORLD!!!1 like I want to someday, I would eat meat as part of a cultural experience (so I would be eating stuff I couldn't get here in America, generally - so no hamburgers or anything XD), but otherwise I wouldn't go back. ♥

[elendraug]

Eustace and Edmund are my favorites, to be sure ♥ though I do love Lucy and Caspian a ton, too. and Tirian and Jewel. and Aravis. and Puddleglum. and Dr. Cornelius and REALLY EVERYONE who am I kidding

Oh yeah, definitely on the travelling thing. I wouldn't miss out on trying foreign foods while abroad, but as for run-of-the-mill eating here in the States, meat = no thanks. I REFUSE to eat veal under any circumstances, but I'd make an exception if it was a special circumstance like that ^

[penguingeek]

YES YES. AND ASLAN RIGHT???

Definitely for me, especially after reading Fast Food Nation for school. Oh my, I think I might just be vegetarian now even if I wasn't before reading that book. I feel like I'm avoiding so many hundreds of health problems by NOT eating meat, but maybe I'm wrong. Gah, anyhow.

[elendraug]

I LIKE ASLAN A LOT EXCEPT WHEN HE'S BUSY RUINING CASPIAN'S LIFE, THANKS YOU JERK, WAY TO STEAL 90% OF HIS FRIENDS AND FAMILY FROM HIM

Oh god, Fast Food Nation. I read parts of the book and watched the movie. It was that plus Skinny Bitch, Don't Eat This Book (the written companion to Supersize Me), and a farm rescue website that convinced me to once and for all give up meat. It's just not worth it, ugh. I already feel MUCH better than I did previously; I'm extremely lactose intolerant, and finding out that the "HEY LET'S MAKE YOU NOT LACTOSE INTOLERANT! :D" capsules and such contained enzymes from sheep stomach, uhhhh. WOW, yeah, no thanks, I'll use soy or rice milk

[penguingeek]

D:

Oh wow, being vegetarian AND lactose intolerant? I've just been thinking recently that I shouldn't be so big on dairy products, considering they come from teh poor cowz, but wow :o

And is it so bad that when people ask me WHY I'm vegetarian, I'm just kind of like UHHHM, WELL. Because quite frankly, I think it just came together at this point, and I was just like VEGETARIAN. RIGHT DECISION FOR ME. It wasn't any big deciding factor or anything.

Guh.

[elendraug]

I can't quite give up cheese and any and ALL things with dairy products in them, but I've already given up eggs (I've got this great stuff, En-R-G egg replacer that works PERFECTLY in baking and lasts forever) except on very rare occasions

Man, I wouldn't even know where to start with reasons why I'm vegetarian. Uh, the guilt over the insanely cruel treatment of intelligent, emotional animals; incredibly unhealthy, cholesterol-laden, cannibalized-and-antiobiotic-laden meat that my stomach is not built to digest the way a carnivore's is; lactose intolerance (which apparently 95% of people have to some extent, some number like that); the expense; disliking the taste of beef; etc. etc. etc. etc.

ALSO I just adore the end of your profile:

IF YOU'RE WONDERING ABOUT ME, I AM A HUMAN AND I WRITE GAY FANFICTION ABOUT VIDEOGAME CHARACTERS

lolz :D

[elendraug]

XDDDD THANKS. I think that summed me up pretty well actually
