What's it like being vegetarian?
Does it take time getting used to?
Is it hard at first?
And finally;
Should I go vegetarian?
I've been thinking but I dunno yet, so I'd like to get your opinions on it.

its great, you live on food that can rightfully be called such.
yes, it takes a lot of time, I suggest taking it slow and steady, working it into your diet, or more correctly, working meat and animal products out of your diet gradually, try one or two days out of the week for a start.
it is hard? no, I actually eat a greater variety of vegan food then when I ate whatever I wanted too..
I say go for it.

I have been having exactly the opposite experience, I have never eaten such a wide variety of foods and flavors until becoming vegan, after all, when you can't just eat the same ol burger that everyone else is eating for lunch, you tend to look around for something entirely different than the usual. your routines become far more interesting
In regards to animal rights and cruelty etc etc..
yes the meat and animal by-products industries in america are truly a nightmare, its almost like Upton Sinclair never even existed in some circumstances, but I find this is not a convincing argument to many americans, after all, some take it as a challenge, like you said, "I dare you to eat that dangerously processed animal food product" as if Joe Rogan was at everyone's dinner..
