OPINION: This old mutt was amused to read about a snowflake vegan in Perth, Australia who wrote neighbours a letter requesting that they close their window when cooking their "sickening" meat.
According to PerthNow, the upset neighbour wrote "PLEASE TAKE SERIOUSLY" on the front of the letter, which was written on behalf of their vegan family members.
The letter read: "Hello neighbour, could you please shut your side window when cooking? My family are vegan - we eat only plant-based foods - and the smell of the meat you cook makes us feel sick and upset. We would appreciate your understanding - thanks. Sarah, Wayne and kids."
However, the letter left various users dumbfounded by the request.
