A vegan is simply a practicing human herbivore.
All humans are herbivore by design.
That is an indisputable fact. (note: refer to Dr. Mills' "Comparative Anatomy of Eating" for a detailed analysis in chart format.)
Diet is the principle mode of earthly interaction and exchange. It is an essential feature of ecology that creatures function within certain behavioral 'niches' including dietary.
This is what enables nature's cooperative and supportive mechanisms to function and thus continuously renew and support all life. To not understand what we humans are designed to eat is so basic a misunderstanding that it has engendered many other destructive and self defeating behavioral forms including war and elitism.
This practical misunderstanding of our true herbivore natures also continues to bar our ability to commune as other animals do; openly, wholeheartedly and with a natural purity of spirit.

Vegans do not consume animal products or engage in behaviors that violate other animals' rights to life, habitat and nature determined experiences.

An idealistic person whose idea comes off as noble (or so they hope) but really is impratical. They fail to realize that harvesting crops always kills free animals that are caught in the combines that collect their veggies and fruit. Regardless of this obvious fact (which is supported by several university studies) vegans tend to be holier-than-thou bunch with a small minority of polite and tactful people. Vegans will often support terrorist groups such as PeTA and ALF/ELF and claim the end justifies the means. Nevermind PETA officers have been caught with lots of leather shoes and belts and PETA euthanizes thousands of animals a year. It's what "in" right now for idealistic college students who have life pretty good. Veganism is generally not what one would consider healthy or natural, nor is the current trend of high meat consumption, but you need meat and dairy in your diet. Veganism also opposes genetically engineered food, claiming it is unnatural to create food that is better suited to survive the harsh climate of drought and help ease world hunger. Idealism beats Realism, right?
Joe being a vegan, asked the waitor at a MEXICAN restraunt if they cooked their beans with pork. When he was given the obvious answer of "Si!" he scoffed and tried to educate the ignorant brown man about veganism. The Mexican guy ignored the stupid gringo and rubbed his pubes on Joe's food for being an arsehole (real life experience).

1. Incisor-bearing organism in reeeeally serious denial. Won't even eat eggs or dairy produce because of the necessary infringement on the hard-won human rights of hens and cattle.
2. Someone who has just come 160,000,000,000,000 miles and is kinda hungry ... so watch out.

One who insists that their diet is more ethical, despite the fact that millions of animals are killed every year in the adding of insecticide to and harvesting of their food.

A) Someone who eats nothing that has anything to do with animals. Nothing... at all. Nope, not even milk, soymilk, but not milk. They do not realize that plants are living things too, with children and parents, and brothers and sister. I actually just eat plastic, lets hope to god that it doesnt turn out to be alive.
B) 2nd step to becoming a Nazi.

Damn plant eaters...

Someone who does not use any animal products (which is near impossible). It has been proven that to be a vegan one must have a ridiculous superiority complex. This is often mistaken by the vegan and other vegans as enlightenment. This massive ego stimulation often results in insulting "meat-eaters" undeservedly, and the delusion that they are actually making a change. This also involves constant bragging about how much they love the lifestyle.
1. "If you are not a vegan, you are a terrible, terrible person incapable of feeling compassion or love because you can stomach the thought of killing a cow. Hold on, I have to finish my tofu and soy milk."
2. "As a vegan, I would sooner kill one human infant than two cows."
(Note: Number 2 is a direct quote from a vegan I know.)
