I've been vegetarian most of my life though, because I think it is disgusting to eat, not just to mention the cruelty part.
Oh, and ovo vegetarians are ones that eat stuff with egg or eat eggs. I'm lactose intolerant.
I ****ing hate PETA though, I don't believe anyone should force their dietary beliefs on anyone else. I get a lot of flak for my vegetarianism just because of what they force on people, they make vegetarians and vegans look bad. Plus, they kill animals. I also really hate people who find it necessary to tell me "Oh, hey I ate a steak!". Hey, great! I don't give a ****! So really, I don't bother people who eat meat, as long as they don't bother me about NOT eating it.
Militants also bug the **** out of me, because no, mother****er I am not going to make my cat eat vegan/vegetarian cat food. He's a ****ing cat, he can eat whatever the hell he damn well pleases. I was called a bad vegan for this, irony of ironies.

Exactly, people who shove vegetarianism down others' throats really tend to annoy me. And i believe that meat, as fur, is sometimes necessary for survival. If we consider Yakutsk, for example, those people definitely need fur, or else they'll freeze to death.
I respect you immensely for choosing not to eat meat and not being self-righteous. Also, you were called a "bad vegan"? Is there some kind of union you join when you decide you wont eat from specific food groups?...
