Used to be a vegetarian restaurant in Zurich called Bad Hunter.

One of my uncles told me this joke once. I looked at him and said, “no, that’s a mistranslation, it actually means living a longer, healthier life than you” 😝
I saw this woman a few years ago and it cracked me up

I went to a pig roast last weekend at one of my best friends (amazing collard greens there). He has a magnet that said “PETA. People Eating Tasty Animals”. I told him I thought it was funny.
My coworker was trying to poke at me for being a vegetarian and said that lame “my food eats your food”. So I said back “And how is that Gout treating you?”. Shut him up real quick.
If it comes from malice, then fight back. If it’s a joke, then laugh.

I dunno, most modern day people buy their meat at a supermarket, so they are more like gatherers

My 92 year old father in law has said this to me for years with a completely straight face. The kicker is that he was vegan for like 20 years, way back in the 80s. WTF.

My mother gave me that exact sign as a Christmas present once. I still have no idea why she thought I would like it.

I was at some event one time where a lady kept pushing me to try some meat and to get her to stop I had to explain I had become a vegetarian a couple of years before. She was offended I guess and condescendingly asked, “What happened? You finally found out where meat comes from?” I pretended she hadn’t just been rude and casually replied, “No, actually some of my earliest memories are of going hunting with my family and helping to skin the animals afterward. I learned to shoot a rifle before most kids can ride a bike. It just never quite sat right with me, and every time I ate meat I imagined biting into a live cow, or chicken, or whatever. So I stopped.” Got kind of awkward after that.

Funniest thing about that joke is that 99.9% of people using it couldn’t hunt if their life depended on it.
Last time someone made a “real men hunt” comment/joke directed at me, i told him that he wasn’t a hunter, he was a scavenger.
He bought meat from an animal killed days ago by someone else, which made him a scavenger.
And that the closest he ever came to hunting, was a minigame in a videogame.

Weirdly enough, IIRC, around 90% of a lot of Native American tribes diets came from plants. And the 10% coming from animals was out of necessity. And aren’t they kind of known for treating animals they hunt and eat respectfully? And not, you know, locking them up in cages until they die a young age?

I’d totally hang this up on my wall. A coworker gifted me something similar on a mousepad and I used it for a long time.

I wouldn’t go back to that ‘gorcery’ (sorcery?) store.
Also, when I was a vegetarian in Iowa, people hated it, because it interfered with their profit. Thankfully in Iowa City there was safety in numbers.

I eat what I can hunt and tofu is slower than deer

Besides this being just terribly racist. I actually knew a native American fellow who went vegetarian as a teenager, from a family that was all about deer hunting. Apparently they didn’t really “get it” but they respected his decision – because they had to. *And this was the 80s/90s, I didn’t know him then but unlike the picture he was probably wearing jeans, a t-shirt, and a flannel

I had a similar magnet on my fridge for years given to me by a dear friend in loving jest of course. I’m not sure if I lost it or if I got worried about being judged by my ultra progressive university friends (is it mildly racist??)

I’m a vegetarian gym rat 🏋️♂️, and judoka 🥋, and I feel like 50% of the people who’d buy this probably couldn’t do a chin-up, or get through a class at the dojo without whining lmao 😆

Its so cringe seeing these people act like they are hunting for survival when in reality they’re just eating store bought meat.
Oh and the WORST ones are actual hunters. Hunting hamrless herbivore PREY. Oh wow so manly and sexy seeing you with a dead deer on tinder.

Lmfao, I mean, indigenous people were very spiritually broad, I wouldn’t be surprised if there were several individuals that were vegetarian then, too. Some people are just naturally extremely sensitive and don’t eat meat because of that. I’m very much like that.
If hunters are ethical, I have no issues with it. I grew up in the south, and hunting was a huge part of culture. I met many people that hunted with morality and I’ve met those who would shoot a fawn and mom just cause. Or hit deer on purpose because it’s funny. It’s about the heart and how you treat nature. If there is no sense or logical is the taking of a life, it is wrong.
That’s another reason I don’t eat meat. The way we obtain meat feels exploitative and wrong. We should all be allowed to eat products that are ethically sourced. I don’t agree we stuff our animals full of grain to make them fat, with no ability to move or behave freely in a way that is natural to them. The only companies that do treat their animals like this are small and independently owned and often too expensive for consistent use.
I went to a dairy farm on a field trip with my child, and got to see the animals there and they were happy! They put them out on open fields, tended to them tenderly daily, and I can tell you, they were happy animals. And all the male babies that were born were ethically sold out to other farms, not slaughter houses. They went to new homes for ethical repurposing.
If all business were ran this way, food would be better for you. I come from Arkansas, and there we have butter ball and Tyson. Well, I refuse to eat it, because nearly 2 decades ago, they were sexually assaulting the livestock! The TURKEYS. I’m not a PETA backer personally, but they were doing gods work getting that on film. These are sick individuals who infiltrate low surveillance spaces and exploit and abuse the products you put in your mouth and eat.
To circle back to make my point, people put up stuff like this and then don’t even take a second to look into the nuances around how depraved our “hunter/gatherer” abilities have really become. It’s not a “skill” when the fundamental parts about respecting nature are lost. The art of hunting isn’t “killing” is becoming a part of the balance of nature and the respect and responsibility that comes with it.
