Since when did Vegetarian become Meat Allergy? It's weak: who has a meat allergy in real life? Plenty of people are vegetarians though.

Because you still get the penalty when you're starving during a zombie apocalypse.

Also, unrelatedly, how do you take apart lawnmowers?

This may be a bit of a stretch. But it's not hard to assume anyone vegetarian by choice ditched that mindset when the zombie apocalypse hit. Meaning if you take the vegetarian flaw you might have gastric issues that make eating meat painful or very unpleasant.

I think it involves a wrench.

Yeah, that's what I always figured it was.
Also, taking apart lawnmowers is done by hitting '(' (or maybe the other parentheses) with a wrench in your inventory.

Thanks for the lawnmower advice. How do you access the build-car screen?

[GalenEvil]

Build Car screen is: Construction Menu ('*') + Start Vehicle Construction ('{')

Thanks!

And then you can use E > direction of car to view the cars menu, refill it, repair it, etc.

One of my close friends is, he gets heaps of bowel symptoms.

The difference is that vegetarianism is a choice, an allergy isn't. If pressed during an apocalyptic situation, there probably isn't a voluntary vegetarian out there who'd bite down on some meat instead of going hungry for a day or two. If meat makes you sick, it'd be a tough decision rather than a contrived one.

And, yes, meat allergy is a thing.

   Just going to point out that mechanically to get points for something it needs a downside. If you want to be just someone who doesn't want to eat meat you can roleplay it just fine, its called not eating meat. If you however want points for it then it needs to go beyond a choice into the realm of a allergy or what have you. Its just easier to call it vegetarian then whatever the real term is because everyone knows the first one.

It's exactly the same as it was. I changed it to meat allergy/intolerance because it seemed a bit strange that Vegetarians were perfectly happy to slaughter and butcher living creatures that were doing them no harm, so long as they didn't eat the meat. At the same time, it's perfectly fine to kill a triffid and eat its flesh, because it just so happens to be made of chloroplasts and cellulose rather than protein and red blood cells.

Often when I see that I think it is intentional as a sort of a slap in the face to vegetarians.
