Today, I had a food allergy test done because of an ugly acne upswing, and after over a year of vegetarianism, I find out that I'm allergic to soy. FML

Today, I got back the results of an allergy test I decided to get because I felt generally tired after meals. Turns out that I'm allergic to, among other things, meat (yep, is a thing), nuts (of course), milk, egg, rice, carrot, apple, yeast (as in bread), and even soy. Seems I'm allergic to… food. FML

Today, I finally saw a dermatologist due to my unusually severe acne. Now I know I actually have a rare disorder that makes me allergic to my own acne. FML

Today, I had an allergy test. Not only was I allergic to 35 out of the 40 items, they also found out that I'm allergic to the latex gloves my doctor happened to be wearing. Now my entire back is covered in a rash that will last at least another week. FML

Today, I tried to blow my girlfriend's vegan parents minds by cooking them a tofu stir-fry. Being allergic to tofu but wanting to prove my cooking skills, I wore gloves and avoided touching my face. Somehow, I still managed to get it in my eye, causing an allergic reaction that made my face swell up like a balloon. Now her parents think I'm some sort of Martian. FML

Today, I told my girlfriend that I'm a vegan. She replied, "So, you're allergic to meat?" FML

Today, I finally went to have blood taken for an allergy test I really need. Afterwards, I had an allergic reaction to the bandaid they used on my arm. FML

Health kick

Today, after years of my very poor diet finally resulted in a long overdue health scare, I declared I must try to live healthier. Also today, I was reminded of my hypersensitive gag reflex (I'm autistic), which causes my body to vehemently protest the consumption of a variety of healthy foods. This sucks. FML

Today, I got a new skin cream for my acne. I tested it on a small patch of skin just to make sure I wasn't allergic. I was, and the reaction didn't stay on that small patch of skin. My left arm is now almost entirely covered in a horrible rash. FML

Today, I had a serious allergic reaction to the food I ate at a Chinese restaurant that supposedly didn't contain peanuts. According to my waitress, peanut oil "doesn't count". FML

People, seriously, shut the hell up on hating vegetarians. It's a personal choice, and if they're not pushing it on you, then you have no right to be pushing them to eat meat. There are entire countries with the majority of it's people being vegetarian. Do you hate on them? And I really doubt some of you are !00% carnivores. You can't survive on just meat, just so you know. There are other things you can eat besides soy products, and there are other alternatives. Also, you guys aren't being witty or funny with your comments saying, "Oh too bad, just go eat a steak and get over it." You're just sounding like an idiot.

That does kind of suck, if you read the ingredients on stuff some form of soy is in way more things than you'd expect it to be.

SHUT THE **** UP AnaDoll Nobody give two shit's about what you have to say. Go ******* kill you're self because no matter how much you bitch and complain I still want my meat damn it! I don't care about how much meat we consume and shit. It is the food chain because we are smart enough to cultivate the animals. The smarter you are the higher up in the chain. **** you and you're vegatarian bullshit. Hey don;t eat plants either because they're technically living. SHUT THE **** UP!

Stop hating on vegetarians! Vegetarians are changing the world. Do you people realize how much food is going to industry animals? Do you realize that all that food could feed starving people and potentially end world hunger? 75% of the grain sent to 3rd world countries goes to animals which end up in McDonald's and Burger King. The number one way to fight global warming is to go vegetarian. The meat industry is also the number one source for lethal greenhouse gases. On top of all that, 1,569,205 animals were saved today by us. What is your accomplishment? #168-Are you comparing yourself to an insect? Insects listen to their instinct. They don't know otherwise. We, as humans, have the intelligence and resources to create other ways of getting the vitamins and minerals from meat, so why not utilize that? It's the same reason people wear clothes now instead of animal skins; because we can. The OP is smart. You're the inconsiderate idiot. #165 and 170-THANK YOU! I wish everyone was like you. #171 - You are an asshole. OP-Good for you for being vegetarian! You can still be vegetarian without eating soy. I have for eight years now.

okay, if so many of you here are going to be ignorant and close minded, why don't you check out how that attitude works in the real big bad world? it's distressing that you won't even aknowledge the inkling possibility that the reasonable acting vegetarians and other respectfully minded people are trying to say something profound. if you ask me, this whole fml has become a pretty good representation of some of human nature's biggest problems.
