Today, after working all day to make a big vegan meal for my family, hoping it would get them to become vegans as well, my brother thought it appropriate to pass around a block of cheese for everyone to grate over the pasta dish. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I spent 4 hours making a cheesecake for my brother's girlfriend, which she begged me for a week to make. After my oven breaking and having to buy a new hand mixer, she tells me she's not going to eat it because this morning she decided to try being a vegan because, "it sounds interesting." FML
Today, even though I told my son I had vegan burgers for him, he brought enough vegan food for everyone at a barbecue, and tried to get everyone to try it. Not one person ate a damn bit of it, and he’s now crying, all while blocking our drive with his car. FML
Today, my family dragged me to a steakhouse, knowing full well I'm vegan. I sat there, with my sad little salad, watching as they stuffed themselves with burned animal flesh and laughed at me. They wonder why I hate them all. FML
Today, my vegan sister told my kids where meat and dairy products come from, in a very detailed way. They now refuse to eat meat, and want to, "rescue all the poor animals." FML
Today, after having been a vegetarian for 8 years because I'm opposed to cruelty to animals, I lost a bet and had to eat a whole cheeseburger. I loved it. FML
Today, my roommate decided to go vegan and threw all of MY meats, cheeses, chocolates and even beans for some reason in the trash, because he "doesn't need that kind of toxic waste" in his life. FML
Today, I had a fight with my little sister. Later she apologized and made me dinner to make up for it. I thought it was pretty good until I found out that instead of using Parmesan cheese in the recipe, she used foot shavings from her Ped Egg. FML
Today, my brother turned into a fanatical vegan, and while I was eating my scrambled eggs, sat across from me glaring and whispering, "fried embryo, amniotic fluid" the entire time. I have a feeling i'll be eating most of my meals in my room from now on. FML
Today, my boss was hosting some client representatives for a meeting and had offered to buy everyone lunch. The "healthy" place he's ordering from made me sick last time, so I'd politely opted out. At lunch, the reps glared at me in the meeting room as I ate my homemade chili con carne. Turns out they're all vegans. FML
Today, I was at my boyfriend's house for dinner with his family. His mom cooked up a steak dinner, except that I'm a vegan, but trying to be a good girlfriend, I forced it down. Upon his mother finding out I was a vegan, she called me "disloyal to my beliefs." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

What is with you vegans trying to indoctrinate non vegans into following your diet? YOU PEOPLE HAVE TO STOP!!! Meat has benefits too if you have a balanced diet. Veganism can also be criticized for lacking in vitamins only meat provides. Ex: vegans lack the vitamin B12 which is found in meat. Just stop it already...

Eat what you want and let other people enjoy their food the way they want to. I used to feel hurt when someone added seasoning to a dish I’d world hard on and thought had seasoned perfectly, but we all have different tastes and preferences.

Next time make a great vegan meal but don’t try to convert anyone. You’ll have a great time and who knows maybe after several great meals, some will change a little bit or a lot their diet.

stop forcing people into poor life choices

stop forcing your agenda on others. you can make choices yourself. you can not make choices for others. if they are not morally opposed to eating meat there is no reason for them to go vegan people like you are the reason meat eaters hate vegans

this is like "I read the Most amazing Bible verses in hopes my family would become Christians, but my brother let people know the baseball scores"... you are free to be you and show it to others but you don't get to be upset when others don't just become like you... this is indoctrination instead of education, and that's not cool.

You can't make a person become vegan. Veganism is a first world political philosophy, and you either buy into it, or you don't. People who don't want to eat animals can maybe be convinced to become vegetarians, but becoming a vegan requires a level of indoctrination that relatively few people are interested in. It's like holding a BBQ and expecting people to become MAGA-heads.

If you want to be vegan, fine. But do NOT try to force it onto others.
