You think you're being funny, but it's just really mean. You should rethink your response.

Ugly.

To vegetarians and vegans, your comment sounds exactly like people who used to mock the suffering of slaves. To us, meat is slavery. You're mocking the suffering of the enslaved.

It makes you look really, really insensitive. Best to stick to other forums.
