You're right, you're not self-righteous at all!

I got it from polling cited on animalfoundation.org, which puts the number of vegans at around 1.1%. I rounded up because I was trying to be generous.

We're all enjoying plenty of carcinogens, yourself included, I assure you.

I am however putting (minimal) effort into making fun of you for literally doing what the original commenter--who wasn't me, incidentally--said vegans do.

And now you appear to have reached the inevitable, defensive conclusion: "OMG Y U TRY HARD FUK U." So edgy.

U mad? Y U mad bro? Lolol
