Because the real thing makes me kinda sick to my stomach. Plus, I drink a flavored soy milk, which isn't that bad. Also, I attend to a lot of anime conventions, and it's some sort of a mix between a running gag and a tradition drinking flavored soy milk on those places.

Hmm, interesting. I never knew that anime and soy milk mixed.
But honestly, I think that fake meat is much better than real meat. I even used to eat it on occasion long before I became a vegetarian. Real meat makes me gag now anyway. Fun story. Friday I was in the commons. They were advertising they had Boca burgers, which they served a lot last year but haven't so far at all this year. I'd always just take it in the wrapper and microwave it myself because they either wanted to deep fry them or put on the grill with the meat burgers, which I would just take and throw away. But I came up there and asked for it, and they claimed they didn't have any, which really pissed me off. Then I had the pleasure of seeing them "cleaning off" the grill, which was cooking about 20 meat patties at once. The gril was covered with layer of burger juice about an inch and a half thick, which they scraped away. I nearly puked.

I must admit I've been craving meat lately (I almost had a KFC last week - I was frustrated, depressed and angry all at once and I got as far as the counter. The lady asked me if she could take my order and I decided against it), but stories like Gaffer's burger juice tale remind me of why I don't.

The hardest thing for me to give up was sushi, but, honestly, the fear of getting sick by eating meat after not having had it for so long sort of keeps me from craving anything. Glad you were able to resist. Are you doing better?
And, Nanner, after I read your post, I had a mental image of you hanging off a cow by your teeth like some parasite.

Actually, since you asked, I'm no the verge of a mental breakdown and seriously considering flying home for a few weeks to clear my head and return to my new L.A. life refreshed and ready for the challenge. I'm not myself right now.
I’m just a simple man trying to make my way in the universe.
Star Wars has 3 eras: The eras are 1977-1983(pre Expanded Universe), (1983-2014) expanded universe, or (2014- now) Disney-bought version. Each are valid.

It’s kind of sad that no one ever responded to this post…

Getting out of the cold and rain, then sitting in front of the fire with a hot drink, and relaxing by doing nothing except listening to the rain outside.
“Don’t tell anyone… but when ‘Star Wars’ first came out, I didn’t know where it was going either. The trick is to pretend you’ve planned the whole thing out in advance. Throw in some father issues and references to other stories - let’s call them homages - and you’ve got a series.” - George Lucas
