Well the bee's work really hard to make that honey and it's kind of rude to take it from them.
(What do bees use honey for anyway? If it was up to me all insects should be replaced by people anyway.)
It's food for the bees. Generally, the food is produced in mass quantities for the bees to survive when they can't produce it. Bee keepers ensure the safety and provide food for the bees in place of their honey, and give them optimum production conditions, that is, the "perfect" hive.
What food can you eat that would not be rude to take from the producer? Even plants "work" hard to grow the parts of them we eat, or we eat their offspring.

I could go for a burger.
There is this place in town that makes a cheeseburger, but puts hickory smoked bacon on it. It is probably the most delicious burger I've ever had. Plus, I can get a beer with it. I'm going there this afternoon.

Burgers are one of the best things mankind has invented. (Unless they're tofu burgers T_T)

It was a response to another meme that I felt was exceptionally delusional.

Fun stuffz.
I'm tempted to do one about chavez and his blatant hypocrisy, but I dunno if political satire is allowed, aaaaand I'm lazy.

Lol- you aren't familiar with memebase then. It's dripping with political satire.
@Azazel- I stalk wowhead regulars, oviously.

The way the vegans word it is, they won't eat anything that had a face; whether this is about milk, eggs, honey and the like, if it comes from an animal, a 'true' vegan won't touch it. Mind you though, there are several different degrees of vegetarianism out there; vegans are just the most 'extreme' spectrum of them.

Can't say I am. I spend most of my interbewbz time here, or on TVtropes, or Cracked, or Youtube.

You make a good point.
I like one of the comments; "Little tip: If he's nice to you but not the waiter, he's not a nice person."
Unrelated, but,
bahahaha.

Please do. It's not like the site is lacking in political satire, anyway

That still doesn't make any sense, Plants are living things too (ask those treehuggers at greenpeace) yet when you chew that apple, you're chewing a part of another living being. What exactly makes it ok for you to do that, but wrong to eat some bacon?
The only way you can live without taking life is if you are capable of doing what the plants do and turn solar energy into food, and even that requires seeping from the soil, in other words, taking life from the planet itself.
I will never understand vegetarians at all man, even though my mom is one, and I love her, I still don't get what is their gripe against meat.

It's the 'face' thing apparently; if your meal had a face and could have looked at you, it's a no-no. But plants aren't 'sentient' in that degree, so it's easier.
Even then though, there are vegetarians out there that eat eggs and fish and drink milk, so who knows how their minds work lol.

Some guy on reddit:
The fact is, there have been gay pride parades for awhile now. It was a great sign of unity and self-support for a minority that has faced oppression for a very long time. It is a celebration, but in a way it is also a defensive mechanism.
Here today we have Chick-fil-a. For the first time I can recall, we have a widespread rally across the US of people who oppose gay rights.
Think about that.
This has never been necessary for them because their point of view was the status quo.
The fact that there was such a big storm of people getting upset over the boycott and a subsequent rally suggests that they felt that their point of view was threatened.
People actually have to get their asses off the couch and -defend- their points of view now. This is big.
People need to stop being down about this. This is a big victory for gay rights.
It should be celebrated - and what a better way is there to take wind out of the sails of an oppressor than that?

Ahh, so its perfectly ok to eat a comatose cow? its not sentient, so it technically counts.

what's this I don't even........................
What about octopus? shrimps, clams, squids, prawns. Most of these have no discernible face. Its wrong to eat those? No matter how they spin it, it still makes no darned sense.
who knows how their minds work lol.
Its one of life's greatest mysteries. Just as why so many men wanna wear their cellphones on their belts, even though their pockets are bare millimeters away and are safer from robbers................
