Did you fall off the first time you tried clipless pedals?

I am getting slaughtered on a vegan forum. Most of them seem to think that falling off in clipless pedals is an inevitability, and apparently I'm "an ass" and I'm "being jerky"

Are vegans supposed to throw dried meat based insults?

Would suggest their ethics are biltong shaky ground, but maybe I ham being a little hard on them
