Blood Effects Setting On/Off

I know that there is already a feed titled "blood," but it looks like that thread has been dead for quite some time now, so I thought I should start a new thread here. Here's my perspective: it's not...

I didn't let my son play 'shooty bang bang' games until he was 13. He didn't mind as he seemed to prefer Little Big Planet and Minecraft anyhow. He ended up on Battlefield. He's just turned 23 and doesn't play games at all. He seems well-adjusted.

Being vegan is annoying. I've lost count of the times I've had the following conversation:

PERSON; I hear you're a vegan.

ME: Yes.

PERSON: So what's wrong about eating meat?

ME: Nothing.

PERSON: So why don't you eat meat?

ME: Because I don't want to.

PERSON: Don't you like it?

ME: Yes, I like meat.

PERSON: So why don't you eat meat?

ME: Because I don't want to.

PERSON: You must think it's wrong to eat meat if you don't eat it.

ME: I think it's wrong for ME to eat meat.

PERSON: What about everyone else who eats meat? Are you saying they are wrong?

ME: Of course not.

PERSON: Have you ever eaten meat?

ME: Yes.

PERSON: Ah-ha! So you're saying it was okay to eat meat then, but it's wrong now? That makes you a hypocrite.

ME: I used to run around naked all day, but I stopped doing that when I was four. I guess it was okay to do that then, but now I'm in my 50s, it's wrong now. I would still like to run around naked all day, but my attitude towards doing that has changed, so I keep my clothes on. If you want to run around naked all day, I'm not going to stop you, but if you do decide to do that can you let me know, so that I can be somewhere very far away.

I don't care if someone is vegan. That's their choice. As long as they're not the preachy meat shamer types I always see. I also don't get vegans/vegetarians that eat things that resemble meat. Like if you're going to not eat meat, take the full plunge & don't eat something that looks like meat either lol.
