Here are some of my pet hates:
Where do you get your protein from?
Do you eat fish?
Do you eat chicken?
Why don't you eat meat?
What's a vegetarian? (I got this all the time in Australia)
Do you not eat meat at all?
Do you REALLY not eat meat at all?
Really REALLY?

Well I have gotten some kinds like that. Like the following one: Why are you a vegetarian you NEED meat. I was Like first of all i don't I Can get protein from other sources. The other one was Do vegetarians only eat vegetables and I was like omg this person can't really be asking me this. The most ridiculous one but quite funny was Can vegetarians eat animal crackers? I was like cracking up laughing but just in my head not like i was trying to be mean or anything but come on now listen to what you just said. Anyway all those questions you have listed pretty much cover it.

I echo all of your pet peeve questions. Well, except for "What's a vegetarian?" I don't think I've ever run across someone completely unfamiliar with the concept! The protein one drives me bats**t...
I think one of my worst pet peeves is the people who decide that rather than question me, they're going to preach to me. I don't care if the Bible says that God gave man dominion over the other animals and I don't care that *some* Christians interpret that as some sort of directive ordering that we eat meat. To me, if there is a God and if he DID give us dominion over the other animals, then that gives us the responsibility to make the planet a better place for them and it's all the more reason NOT to raise them for slaughter unnecessarily.

This is what I have heard people say to my friends that are vegetarians, "You must be joking, you mean you really don't eat meat? What's wrong with you?"

One i get a lot is
" really? why would you want to give up meat?"
once i give a short condensed answer ( my real one would take too much time...)
then they say: "Really??? I could never do that? You should eat meat. "
I hate it!!!!
Another one i get is:
"do you take vitamins?"
or...
"god put animals on this planet for our use..."
I swear, everytime i hear that one i almost scream @ that person! I don't give a **** what they think god put the animals on earth for... we are an animal, we evolved from what we think of insuperior beings...
Don't you hate it when people keep pestering you to eat meat?

#1 - Where do you get your protein from?
#2 - Don't you crave meat now?
#3 - Not a question - but the fact that everyone assumes I just eat salad. Especially in the context of my coworkers/friends saying, "Let's go to Such&Such Steakhouse for dinner."

How in the heck did you just kick my *** at badminton/tennis/squash/golf? I thought you Vegan's are supposed to be weak and useless at Sport!!
Hahahahahah. I have also got the, 'You do not look like a typical Vegan!' ... and it is not the question itself, it is the befuddled way in which they look when they make the general statement. You know the one, head ****** to one side, and the look of general confusion on their face!!
Now I ask them, what in the heck is a Vegan SUPPOSED to look like. Should I have bark instead of skin..? Have leopard spots instead of pale colour..?
I find ignorant people hilarious sometimes!!

I am not vegan but if I was I would assume people would ask me if I feel sorry for the animals... that would get annoying.
