Portland craigslist hipster strike again!

So we are all moving out of the purple house at the end of this month and my room mate Jillian has been looking for a new place to call home. The following is an email thread that Jillian had with Greg, the vegan obsessed, Obama loving, meat eater hating hipster. I had to share its awesomeness. Damn Portland is just too good.

Hi Greg,

I've noticed your post several times on craigslist but have hesitated to respond once I read that you do not allow meat in the house. Because of my soy allergy and issues with anemia and hypoglycemia, it's medically necessary I be allowed to eat protein on a regular basis. If this is an issue you're willing to be flexible on, I'd love to talk more. Your home looks lovely!

Best,
Jillian

My ad says "no factory farm meat".

Thanks, Greg

Right, but since I'm a college student with a lot of bills I can't always afford to buy free range organic meats. Is this something you could be flexible about?

can't afford free range, than go vegan....
this is a NO Factory Farm House....best of luck to you...

In case you don't remember, YOU contacted ME after I stated in my post that I eat meat. I even explained to you why it's medically impossible for me to be vegan. It's clear you aren't very intelligent but there's really no need to be rude.

My ad said "NO FACTORY FARM MEAT", that is a fact.

It's your personal choice to eat animals that have been tortured,
abused and filled with chemicals. You alone make that choice.

WHICH IS WHY I DID NOT RESPOND TO IT
