Today, my roommate decided to go vegan after watching a PETA video. She began this new-found lifestyle by throwing out all of the non-vegan items in the house, including some prime rib we had recently purchased, all of our ice cream, and my chocolate stash. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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, to keep me from "getting fatter", my roommate raided the kitchen. She ate everything from cookies and ice cream to deli meat. The only thing left in the house are vegetables. FML
Today, I moved in with my new roommate. She's a vegetarian, and won't let me put my meat in the fridge because it will "contaminate her food". FML
Today, my vegetarian housemate cleaned the fridge. He threw away all of the meat in our fridge and made a nice sign stating "Meat is Murder". I was storing roughly $1000 worth of filet mignon steaks and seafood for my sister's wedding. FML
Today, my daughter, who is going through a vegan phase, pulled the plug for our garage chest freezer, where we store our meat. That's $1200 of meat, rotten. My husband is so mad that he's been at the gym for six hours straight. FML
Today, my roommate raged at me for "lying" about being a vegetarian, because she saw chicken stored in my side of the fridge. That chicken isn't for me, it's an ingredient in the homemade food I make for my dogs. Apparently, serving my dogs real meat instead of forcing them into vegetarianism makes me a hypocrite. FML
Today, surprisingly, my roommate made a nice meal. Within an hour, I started throwing up. When I confronted her, she confessed that she'd used long expired ingredients, including meat, because she didn't want the garbage men to think she's "the type that wastes food." FML
Today, my girlfriend woke me up by saying, "Good morning! We're going to be vegans from now on." FML
Today, after I cleaned out the fridge of things that expired months ago, my roommate got angry and insisted upon pulling all the moldy dairy products out of the garbage and putting them back because "they weren't mine and I shouldn't throw out other people's food." 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I'd be pissed! Just because she's vegan doesn't mean you are!

I hate the vegans that decide because they're a vegan everyone else should be too.

You're roommate went way too far. Demand reimbursement for the items.

You should get them to buy all new food for you. Just because THEYRE changing doesn't mean YOU have to. **** them!

I say that this is a hint for you to start packing up.

I certainly hope you talked to her and told her she was way out of line, just because she's decided to become a vegan doesn't give her the right to throw out the food that isn't vegetarian-friendly. You have to eat, too, after all. If she continues to do this, just kick her out at this point.

Chocolate and ice cream? Seriously? She's going to ruin her health if she excludes every product that is remotely related to animals (like milk, eggs, etc). Also she should pay you for items she threw out. I should mention that plants might not like being eaten either.

No, she won't necessarily ruin her health, veganism can be a perfectly healthy diet when done with proper variety. However, in this case, she's clearly and idiot and probably will get malnourished. Thankfully, plants lack the capacity to feel pain, and even if they did feel pain it would be in a lesser capacity than mammals, so it would be a 'lesser of two evils' situation.

How do you know that animals have a subjective experience? How can an animal feel pain without a mind to feel it?
DelphiCat 17
Lock yourself in a small room with a cat. Poke the cat with a pointy object. When it has scratched your face off, do come back and tell me the cat was not experiencing pain, and therefore reacted not one smidgen. Pain is experienced by animals. They have the mind to experience it. If they didn't, when my cat walked across the still-hot cooker top (they were not allowed on the work-tops, she was persistent and irritating and she did it when i wasn't looking) she would not have reacted by jumping to the floor and yowling in pain. She also wouldn't have never, ever jumped on the counter ever again. Not only did she feel the pain, she remembered the pain, remembered what caused the pain, and remembered not to do it again. It's scientifically accepted that say, pigs, are smarter than dogs and cats, if a cat feels and remembers pain, your bacon did too.
