I stumbled over this interesting little article today. “Five Vegetarians that Can Seriously Kick Your Ass”
Not just kick your ass, kick your ass seriously man, seriously.
I was immediately interested by the fact that it’s a top five and not the typical top ten format. Well that’s because apparently there are no more than four vegetarians that can actually seriously kick your ass. You just know this list is utterly pathetic when one of the five ‘kick your ass vegetarians’ is Jesus. Seriously? Seriously. We couldn’t even manage to come up with five whole examples that are actually real people?
Even sadder, these people aren’t exactly kicking ass because their vegetarian either.
Their first entry Scott Jurek is a long distance runner. Who was running really far before he went vegetarian in 1997 and finally vegan in 1999. In fact out of the four actually examples I could only find one that was an actual life-long vegetarian. That’s just so… pathetic.
To make it worse the article is ended with a proclamation the the author has spent hours, hours, of research on the topic and doesn’t want anyone raining on his parade with anecdotal evidenced. Really? Can someone please tell me what five little short stories dragged together by about ten minutes of Google is considered these days? Ah yes, of course, anecdotal!
Now I don’t have a problem with vegetarianism or veganism, knock yourself out, I just have a problem with really stupid commentary.
