I had to do a contract this month having to do with the band Lonestar. Every fucking single time I thought of it in my head it was in Dark Helmet's voice.

I think I am broken.

No, broken would be not using Dark Helmet's voice.

Yeah but some of those pieces could be considered abstract art/lettering. That typical tagging shit is stupid, I agree... but shit like this?

That's awesome Signe.

See that's such a big question. Why do some people achieve more than others? Why do some exhibit more talent? Why do some people try harder in adverse situations? There's millions of pages of debate about nature/nurture/social conditioning/expectations etc. etc. etc. there.

Also, nice graffiti takes time to do. And lots of paint cans in multiple colours. And that generally needs to be time when you don't get interrupted by police, angry residents, other taggers, etc.

Banksy said something about how his art developed the way it did - he had to use stencils in order to be able to spray something more interesting in a short time so he didn't get caught by cops or security guards.

Flavor is in the fat and no fat means no flavor.

Short answer:No it does not taste good.

You could use it to soak up flavours, like sauce, gravy, etc., in dishes that require a minced meat texture, I suppose.  I used Quorn once in tacos when a vegetarian was coming for dinner.  It was actually good.  Taco seasoning is mostly what you tasted in proper tacos anyway.  The veg guy was thrilled.  But why would I used something like that weird meat?  It looks like that horrible pink slime everyone was complaining about a while back.  I'd rater use Quorn or something.

As someone who's been a vegetarian for "moral reasons" for 25 years, I'm pretty excited about it.

Also if vat-meat can be perfected, even if you don't give a shit about killing cows/chickens/whatever you can have meat without the insane food waste that goes into producing it.

Just wait till they come in flavors, PORK, BEEF, CHICKEN, DEER, BUFFALO! All packed with flavors derived by some combination of chemicals that will eventually kill you anyway. I am not opposed to lab-grown meats, but I am very leery about the shit they will add to it for flavor, texture, consistency, etc. What it will all boil down to will be price though. Is it cost effective to mass produce? *check back later*

This is my primary reason for cheering them on.  I love a good steak and don't care about animals feelings but dislike that I know how much energy it takes to raise the cow, slaughter, ship and then cook it for me. Incredibly inefficient!

The inefficiency adds to the taste - why do you think Kobe beef is supposed to be so good?

My brother in law has also been a vegematarian for over 20 years, although he eats fish for protein.  The only thing he still misses a lot is bacon.  I guess you never get bacon out of your system.
