Vegans already only make up a small percentage of the human population, but I'm going to convince the rest of that percentage that they should never ever go vegan. Going vegan is shown to benefit not only each person, but the animals and environment as well. But who cares about that? Here are the top 10 reasons not to go vegan.

1. You want to keep your cholesterol high.

I mean really, who wants lower cholesterol? That stuff is great for you.

2. You want to have an increased risk of coronary heart disease.

Heart disease? Sign me up. As long as I get my meat.

3. You don't want to save water.

Yeah, water is just one important element we need to survive. And yeah, meat production uses up way too much water, but bacon though.

4. You want an increased risk of cancer.

Cancer runs in my family, but I don't have to worry about it. Because bacon.

5. You don't want to save animals.

Animals? Who cares about them? They were put here for us, duh. Therefore, we can make their entire existence a torturous hell. Oh wait, I'm an animal? Well, yeah, you're right, but humans are the only important animal.

6. Greenhouse gas emissions aren't an important issue.

It's not like these emissions affect every living being on the planet, because we all share the same Earth and ozone.

7. You don't want a decreased risk of type ll diabetes.

Who wants to give up bacon for health? C'mon! Be realistic. Bacon over health any day.

8. You want to continue killing our only planet.

It may be our only planet, but YOLO right?

9. You don't want the future to be sustainable.

I won't be around to see the end anyways. My kids might, though. Who cares about them.

10. Your taste buds are more important than the entire planet.

Amen! Live for the now, not for the future! My preferred taste is way more important than something that affects everything on this Earth.



Note: Obviously this is all sarcasm. Don't get too offended.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
