A new survey is out revealing that 1 in 3 British
vegetarians polled admit to eating meat “when drunk.”
Well,
I’d always suspected.
Many people, especially former smokers, crave
cigarettes (nicotine) when drinking. This is completely understandable as the
‘downer’ of alcohol signals the body to call for the ‘upper’ of nicotine…and
vice-versa. People get many cravings when drunk. Some are desirous of love and
physical affection while others are driven to cuss and fight. Still others find
themselves inexorably drawn towards the nearest White Castle. Stop off at your local watering hole some
evening and you’ll find that many yearn to sing. Oddly enough, drunks are
attracted to karaoke like bugs to a bright light on a warm summer’s night. Yes,
when these folks get so drunk they slur their speech and can’t stand upright
without help, they apparently believe they are properly prepared to show the
world- or at least those within earshot- that they are just one lucky break
away from the Grand Old Opry.
I am sure the survey would have had
basically the same results in the U.S. (And the 37% that admitted to becoming
temporarily carnivorous when tipsy are those who had the courage to push past
the shame of admitting blasphemy, so the actual figure could be higher). When
liberal, moralizing, holier-than-thou, Prius driving, statist, vegetarian nag’s
inhibitions fall away, it is spectacular. Many vegetarians/ vegans don’t just consume vegetation, they smoke it. Yet, after a bottle or two of
California’s finest and/or some ‘weed,’ I’ve seen more than one of them attempt
to keep a grip on their supposed virtues only to proclaim something like,
“Dude, celery isn’t gonna cut it, like I’m so hungry I could eat a horse! Oh,
wait, didn’t mean that! Ah, @*!# it, I’m going to Burger King for a Whopper!”
