Today, while he was eating chicken, one of my friends asked me why I'm a vegetarian. I responded that I believe in animal rights and don't like the conditions the animals are forced to live in. He looked at me incredulously before explaining that "chickens aren't animals, they're birds." FML

Hi guys, OP here. Yeah I've been a vegetarian for a few years and my friend finally decided to call me out on it. I think i died a little inside when i heard it haha. He eventually did admit that he was wrong and we're still friends and whatnot. Common sense isn't so common nowadays though is it.

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Your friend is a bird brain.

This friends, is why us vegetarians have a bad reputation for acting like we're better than people.

He is an idiot

I don't understand how this makes your life suck. So, you have a dumbass friend? Who doesn't?

Plus FML's not exactly known for its intellectual/mentally well commenters, so I guess some people took offense.

Why do I get the feeling the guy who said you can eat fish and chicken as part of vegetarianism also had the mind set as your friend?

Well, he's got a point there...oh, nevermind, it's just a tiny round piece of dirt.

I know people who think chicken eggs are meat. I can tell how you feel

This sure sounds stupid, but I can't tell you how many times I've heard the same reasoning for fish not being meat.
