Guys, I'm in desperate need of an American fiction novel written 1940 or later, and it can't be either
A: commonly taught in schools (if it's removed from the American canon, that's actually preferable) or
B: suck ass because boring books are no fun. Oh and
C: Have some sort of easily decipherable symbolism allowing for potential easy essays to be written. Racial or Feminist issues are a bonus. This whole part is less necessary than A and B though.

Also, if one more person suggests The Fountainhead or Atlas Shrugged, I'm gonna give up on life. Seriously fuck Ayn Rand.

On another note, it's pretty funny how so many people are talking about this incoming blizzard, and I'm just sitting here in the prettiest weather I've seen in months ^_^

Would 1984 or Brave New World it your criteria? I recommend both, mostly because Brave New World is basically our world atm.

Meh, i don't understand the problem. i do the cooking so its not a problem. if you feel guilty because the other person doesn't eat meat thats your own guilt issue not the vegetarians. unless they are being a martyr about it. fuck those people. its just as dickish as talking about how great meat is to a vegetarian. we don't give a shit.

EDIT: ghandi i know that feeling man. beautiful here too.

I don't feel guilty at all. If I felt guilty I wouldn't eat what I do. The big problem is there are basically two reasons you're a vegetarian: it's a moral standpoint and you are going to be directly opposed to what I eat, or it's a 'health choice' and you are in my opinion just wrong and neither of those are great foundational oppositions for a relationship.

Everything I eat short of a cheat meal/snack has meat or eggs in it. Everything. I would need to completely alter my food prep to make this work. I get that compromise is involved in successful relationships, but compromise is generally not 'totally change a major aspect of your life.'

yeah. i mean i'm starting to wonder about the vegetarians these guys have met. are they actual vegetarians, or are they people on a diet.

i've had girls tell me they are vegetarian because they dont eat red meat and then at chipotle be like: what, don't you want chicken on your burrito? then there are the kinds that are vegetarians for the past couple weeks and start to talk like they know everything about it. bitch you're on a diet you aren't a vegetarian. But the good ones are great. and i'm just going to say, i've never met a vegetarian that hasn't been real eager to service my vehicle.


So no one can become vegetarian because they don't like meat? no one can be raised vegetarian and not hold the beliefs of their parents? no one can just like vegetarian food better? thats some ignorant shit man. If someone is asking you to change a major aspect of your life for them that's a problem with the person, not their lifestyle.

well they probably shouldn't be cutting veggie subs with the same knife anyway. my ex was vegetarian and i couldn't cook bacon in the house cause it smelled awesome/"gross" for too long after.
