collegeoptimist @collegeoptimist (86) • United States 26 Nov 07

I attended a lecture at which a vegan activist insisted that it is morally and ethically wrong to be a meat-eater - that meat-eaters have a god-complex and believe that they can decide which animals die and get eaten and to what...

MakinMoney129 I'm a vegetarian, not a vegan...and the difference is that a vegetarian simply doesn't eat meat or fish. Vegans don't eat anything that ever came from an animal, which includes milk, cheese, and any dairy products, gelatin, etc. I believe that being a...

MakinMoney129 I did that once...the age to work here is 16, but it can be 15 if you have a form filled out from your school, and you can even get a high school credit for working! A lot of places won't hire you at 15, they wait until 16, and some places won't even hire...

jennybianca @jennybianca (12912) • Australia 31 Oct 07

Cleaning animals' teeth, silly or necessary?

coffeeshot @coffeeshot (3783) • Australia 20 Nov 07

How many of you clean your dog's teeth? How regularly do you do it? Perhaps some of you take your dogs/cats to the vet's for a teeth scale. Do you really think it's necessary to clean your pet's teeth? Why?

MakinMoney129 It's definitely a good thing to keep them clean, but working for a vet, I know how overboard the doctors can go with it sometimes! All of my dogs always did perfectly fine with me brushing their teeth a few times a week, and having safe things to chew on. I...

Are you jealous?

megumiart @megumiart (3771) • United States 8 Dec 07

Do you get jealous if your ex gets with another person? I don't get jealous if I was the one that broke up with my partner, but if it were vice versa I might get envious. :P

MakinMoney129 I personally, don't get jealous...my break ups are usually for a good reason, and I end up hating the person, so I usually find it funny that they're off, annoying someone else. And half the time, I wouldn't even know anyway, cuz I really don't keep tabs on...
