Vegetarian

You both like vegetarian.

You: Hello. I'd like to argue something. Or why are you here?

Stranger: I like a good argument haha

You: Great

You: Why are you vegetarian?

Stranger: Because I don't want to eat as many animals as I can avoid in my life. I've butchered animals and I don't like it. If I don't have a heart to do it, then why have someone else do it? It's also better for the Earth.

Stranger: Monocropping is bad enough without doing it to raise cows, pigs, and chickens.

Stranger: How are you, by the way?

You: I'm good

Stranger: Awesome, was my answer sufficient to satiate you?

Stranger: You said argue, so what point do you want me to learn?

You: I need a 10 min break

You: sorry, please wait

Stranger: That's fine

Stranger: I'm just watching Joe Rogan anyways Haha

Stranger: So what did you want to argue? We could just talk about it like two people, we don't need to be throwing other people's opinions or sources around

You: Ok, so I came back

You: and there's this idiot trying to argue against veganism

You: but now he just stopped

Stranger: Ah okay

You: and his reply is mere apathy

You: =)

Stranger: Interesting

Stranger: Yeah every belief system or anything in life has extremists

You: He's the middle though

You: I mean

You: He starts shooting in the dark

You: And then once he hears my argument

You: He's like, "I really don't care."

Stranger: What are your ideas?

You: lol

You: about veganism?

Stranger: Or vegetarianism. You tried talking about it earlier

Stranger: Or what are your opinions

You: suffering

You: unnecessary suffering

You: of certain animals

You: like dairy cows and chickens

Stranger: Okay, why?

You: why what?

Stranger: You aren't formulating an argument or making any sense.

You: I usually argue for veganism based on certain animal's living conditions in the US.

You: i.e., suffering, not slaughter

Stranger: The only thing that's acceptable to me is regulated necessary hunting for food.

Stranger: I'm not a big supporter of animal farming.

You: ya

You: Yesterday some dude was trying to argue against veganism

You: he stated that crop and animal factory farming was equally bad

Stranger: It can't be equal though.

Stranger: That's stupid.

You: regardless

You: so I brought up the fact that for every lb of beef it takes 12 lb of crops

You: so quantitatively

You: by simple math

You: he supports veganism

You: ...he didn't get it

Stranger: A large percent of our crops go to raising animals.

Stranger: Yeah he doesn't sound very smart.

You: meh, he could've been young

Stranger: Yeah. Possibly

Stranger: I learned a lot about it in my AP environmental science class and reading about it in my free time

Stranger: Simply learning about trophic levels should be sufficient evidence for that.

You: I don't know

You: That's been a typical side remark

You: You didn't do any research!

Stranger: Lol

You: ...on some irrelevant point

You: Anyway

You: Have you found a good tasting protein mix?

You: I'm trying to find a good vanilla one

Stranger: Me? I don't take very much. My body does well with the protein I get. I take peanut butter powder but that's it

Stranger: I do armwrestling and calisthenics, so yeah. Most vanilla stuff is either soy or pea protein. Soy powder isn't my favorite

You: Ok

Stranger: Hemp is pretty nice if you can deal with the fiber haha

Stranger: Protein powders are usually expensive anyways, I like homemade seitan, it's pretty easy to make

You: Well, I like to make shakes

Stranger: Try mixing chia and flax with some hemp

You: baller

Stranger: Lol it's just good food to ingest

Stranger: I like pb powder because it's really smoothe and you can consume a lot of protein that way. Whey always tasted gross to me

Stranger: *smooth

You: I don't know anything about you really

Stranger: Yeah I'm a man. A biochemistry student

You: coolio

Stranger: Ya, some women taste like urine and malic acid. It happens

Stranger: I'm not sure if that's vegan though haha

You: hmmm

You: perhaps with non-formal situations I will bring up this joke

Stranger: Sounds like a plan

Stranger: Are you still a student?

You: sadly

Stranger: My apologies, I'm from the US btw, school sucks

You: Wisconsin

Stranger: West Virginia here

You: Groovy.

Stranger: I've never been to Wisconsin, do you like it there?

You: It's just a place

Stranger: Everywhere is unique though.

Stranger: Are you okay? You act really weird every now and then. I don't know you personally though.

You: I hope you don't mind. I have two chats open.

You: You and another.

Stranger: Tell the guy I said hi

Stranger: 😂

Stranger: Yeah you aren't really asking anything about me or starting conversations, or giving anything insightful. It's a bit dull, for future reference. I didn't

You: Honestly, I didn't get much sleep yesterday

You: I'm dull, ya

You: Do you have quora?

Stranger: Yeah I have quora

You: what is it?

Stranger: I mean, I know how to share it on Facebook and stuff, but my email is 
hidden

You: sharing emails never works

You: I've tried it

You: quora.com/profile/Adam-Uraynar

Stranger: Interesting last name. Are you near Sheboygan😂

You: That's where I grew up

You: 3.5 hours away now

Stranger: Awesome

Stranger: I looked at your profile and followed you by the way, you seem pretty smart, I wasn't trying to be mean earlier or anything. I just had trouble reading you. Are you a little introverted?

You: I wouldn't say so ~ ambivert

Stranger: Yeah I'm probably about the same

Stranger: Most people that are honest would say so

You: I think most people pigeonhole themselves

Stranger: Yeah I can see that

Stranger: I wasn't meaning to classify you as simply introverted earlier, just speaking about different characteristics I was picking up. People are complicated creatures with a spectrum of different personality characteristics. It would be dumb to categorize people like that.

You: I don't read too much into things, don't worry

Stranger: Who would you say is your favorite philosopher?

You: Today?

You: Peter Singer

Stranger: He's done some great work

Stranger: It's nice to see somebody like him and his views on bioethics.

You: I agree.

Stranger: I have some laboratory classes in biology, and I don't particularly care much for a lot of what's going on. Especially with how some people treat the lab animals

Stranger: Hey, we can chat some time if you'd like, I have some meditation to do before I sleep, it will take about 2 hours probably

You: where?

Stranger: Do you have any preferred social media?

Stranger: I have most lol

Stranger: I know quora links with some

You: facebook
