You really are an idiot - an utter, fucking idiot. It's a HUMOR PIECE,
for christallfuckingmighty. Even trying to read between the laugh
lines, it isn't "very" anti-vegetarian at all, although obviously the
guy takes at least some kind of dim view of it as he eats meat.
How do you figure he's "arrogant" based on the way he talks about his
sister? He acknowledges throughout the HUMOR PIECE that she is very
intelligent and well educated. He doesn't even directly address her
reasons for being vegetarian, although there are some hints that it is
for health rather than "ethical" reasons.
You unwittingly illustrate just what humorless, unperceptive clods most
so-called "ethical" vegetarians are.
