animal vegan love-and-respect
I am a vegan out of my love and respect for animals, as well as respect for myself.

Animals are sentient creatures. I love them very much. I do not feel that we have the right to torture, murder, and abuse them for our own disgusting dietary and fashion wants and needs.
compassion animal vegetarianism
I became a vegetarian out of compassion for animals and to live as healthy as possible. I realized soon after that I was truly concerned with nonviolent consumption and my own health, a vegan diet was the best decision.

I grew up watching MTV, so it's very surreal to me to think that there might be someone out there watching MTV, looking at us the way I used to look at Davis Madonna and Duran Duran videos.
liking people ridiculed
People do get ridiculed for liking us or because they look the way they do and they're a part of what we do.
I find drug use disrespectful, self-destructive, and weak. I want no part of it.

I was the freak who moved into the nice neighborhood.

I've heard there are vegan corn dogs - I don't know if that's true but, jeez, I'd love to eat one of them.
