Vegetarian dinner guests. Aaaaaaaaaaaah.

See…that’s the thing…it’s not a big deal. I am already making a meat dish for the meat eaters. That is accompanied by potatoes, a vegetable, a salad, garlic bread, etc. Then all I have to do is pick up some boca burgers or something like that. Stuffed mushrooms or guacamole or something as an appetizer. I don’t know many people who eat more than one or two meat dishes in a meal anyway.

hey, what the hell happened here? a pit thread w/o a dissenting opinon of the OP? damn. I thought it was impossible.

I guess I can give it a try:
How dare you limit the dietary options of someone who chooses not to eat certain categories of food! :mad: :mad:

How was that? :stuck_out_tongue:

I disagree. I think lighting her on fire is a fine idea. Use it as the post-dinner entertainment, with a little brandy glaze. I’ll bring the blowtorch.

Do 'er up like a creme brulee…crispy and glass-like! Grab a spoon!

Well, I had to soften it, as technically recommending that the guest be lit on fire probably runs afoul of the no wishing death rule . . .

The brandy glaze would be a nice, classy touch, though.

Kalhoun, you suck. Now I want creme bruleee. Mmm, creme brulee’d vegetarian.

Excalibre, I didn’t know the rule extended to non-dopers though! Besides, we’re not saying she’d be dead, just very very uncomfortable…

I get dibs on the soft, creamy center!

Wow. Just Wow. Yeh, she’s a cunt. I would have proceeded to put proscuitto, cheese and anything else non-vegetable that sounds yummy on top of the spaghetti and sat back down ignoring her.

  1. you went out of your way to accomodate her – on your birthday
  2. she didn’t appreciate that you went to the trouble of making her her very own main dish
  3. her food choices are not your problem
  4. if she doesn’t like the food, she should a) STFU and not eat or b) bring something vegetarian to contribute.

I am not good at taking the high road, I would be inviting the idiot over for BBQ’s and making sure I had the cutest, fuzziest, yummiest meats available – rabbit, deer, cornish hens, etc. And not one single vegetable. Bah. no, I’d just have told her to bugger off, but it would be fun nonetheless!

It doesn’t. We’re free to wish as much death as we want on people we don’t like, just so long as we do it behind their back. :stuck_out_tongue:

If you can’t beat 'em, eat 'em.

I wonder what vegetarians taste like.

chicken. Don’t ask how I know.

Depends how recently they ate asparagus…
Ewwwwwwwww…

Well, after that Pit Manners thread, I’m actually afraid to say anything. Seriously.

I had an instant response, but I won’t be writing that, I guess.

Can I have your lemon spaghetti recipe?

Oh, and I’m a veggie, but wow, I’d never, ever expect you to change your meal plans for little old me. You can eat great gobs of meat until your heart’s content, I wouldn’t make a fuzz. Yer veggie “friend” was an asshat.

Can I have your lemon spaghetti?

Spot on, and exactly the comeuppance I’d suggest. :smiley:

You did, or didn’t spend most of the day slaving over the meal? The lemon spaghetti sounds like something you could throw together in the time it takes to boil the spaghetti. Making the antipasti non-meat couldn’t have been that hard or time consuming, could it?

You sound kinda high-maintenance to be around when *IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY.
*

There. Dissenting opinion given.

Your friend sounds like a bitch though.

Yeah, one asshole vegetarian is mean to the OP (on his birthday, no less, the bitch!) and now, it’s open season on vegetarians. Why is everyone so ready to flip shit about this topic? Most vegetarians are not like the jerk that was rude to the OP; I’d be so grateful if someone made a special entree just for me, and would considered it beyond the call of duty. Most people would. Regardless of this, at the slightest opportunity, all this barely-repressed hostility comes out towards non-meat eaters. What, do you feel all judged or something, so you’ve got to lash out when you get the chance? Why not focus your bile on the specific person behaving badly and not spew it on all vegetarians in general? There is more than ample evidence of an unreasonable prejudice here, which is uncalled for, because as someone else said, if the woman in the OP weren’t a vegetarian, she’s probably find something else to bitch about.

reskims the thread :confused:

Are we reading the same thread, because I’m not seeing this anywhere here… I’m a vegetarian so I’m a tad sensitive about being accused of being rude, but I didn’t get that at all, other than an overly-general thread title.
