Almost the Platonic Archetype

Chick #1 perusing lunch specials: God, that is so guh-ross!
Chick #2: What now?
Chick #1: That bloody roast beef thing right there... All of that red meat... It's the flesh of animals! It's so cruel and it makes me sick. I'm a total vegan these days.
Chick #2: Huh. Wait, didn't you have a bacon and egg sandwich this morning?
Chick #1, haughtily: Yeah, but that's not the actual flesh of any animal, now is it?
Chick #2: Wow. You are the first real idiot I've ever met.
