    I have a hard time reconciling the kind of woman who listens to Morrissey and the kind of woman who gets acrylic French tips.

    Veganism: the worst possible mix between religion and eating disorder.

    But of course, the insistence on veganism isn't dominant at all. No, indeed. No power issues here.

    I would show up on the date with sausage in my pockets. *sniff sniff* "Ugh, what is that smell?" "My new art project! It's part of a subculture!"

    He is correct to separate "vegan desserts" out from "food" though. I wouldn't feed that pasty rot to my worst enemy.

No i do not want to carry a gun and deal drugs and talk about bangin' chicas, vato. I listen to Morrissey!

    This sounds like the guy your bring to your annoying sister's baby shower, the one who likes to ask you, (the NYC apartment dweller, working for "life capital" instead of money, who ditched being a lawyer to um, "see where life takes me," and was secretly Dad's favorite because you always, "Carved your own niche, instead of following the herd like Brenda." ) when you'll ever get married, start popping out the teat-sucklers, and in general be someone she can refer to in conversation without saying, "You know, when she figures it out, and moves to Jersey."

    Yeah, this is definitely the guy who'll ask if the dip is soy, if your sister knows there will be no Social Security for her yet to be born corporate asshole offspring, and that it's really uncool to have toilet "paper" instead of recycled mulch in the "loo." Thereby making sure you never have to attend such a gathering again. And as a reward for a job well done, you can let this dude tell you all about iceberg conservation in the Antarctic, and how the Monkey Goats totally jammed at the High Anxiety club on 28th and 3rd during the PATH ride home, and never call him again. Like ever. Win!

    The reference to Genesis P-Orridge and "occulture" is designed to make him sound like he made up the word "occulture" (by saying "p. orridge (sic) might refer to this as"). But he didn't make that up. It's the name of a magazine for which P-Orridge once did illustrations. Does this guy think he's the only one who has "edgy" tastes in shitty, late-60s British performance art? Like I said before here: people under 25 are to be avoided.

    @Andrew Wolf: A dessert with no butter or eggs is actually awesome? I don't reject the notion in theory, but I have yet to see it executed in practice. My experience of vegan deserts is solely confined to those carob mint cookies whipped up by a shambolic vegan chain in LA called Real Food Daily. Oh my sweet Lord. Achy-breaky, big-mistaky.

    @snugbug: I used to live in Austin and there is a coffee shop there called Spider House that has awesome vegan desserts. Their vegan carrot cake is better than any carrot cake I have ever eaten in my life and I am not vegan. A friend of mine also makes vegan pumpkin bread every Thanksgiving and it is super tasty. I know it sounds like they'd all be failures without dairy but you might be surprised. I definitely was.

    @snugbug: I have an excellent recipe for vegan cupcakes, but the reason they taste good is that they have about 2 cups of shortening in them. So, vegan? Yes. Healthier than regular cupcakes? Definitely not.

    Also, Pennylicks in Williamsburg (I know, I know...Williamsburg) has a really good vegan coconut cake. Aside from those two things, every vegan dessert I have ever had tasted like maple syrup and sawdust. And that place Babycakes on the Lower East Side? Repugnant.

    Ah, it's that time of year again: right before the holidays, everyone wants to couple. Even if one 'honestly doesn't see oneself dating anytime soon, as people are generally a major let down.'
