bone-petite is so cringe it caused me physical pain

I do think their bone is quite petite

I think it's actually intentional because a thing asshats are trying is to make fun of how he isn't muscular.

... because you know... Lifting weights has so much to do with being Mayor...

[–] jdf038@mander.xyz 13 points 6 days ago (1 children)

deadlifts 350

becomes mayor of a mid sized city

deadlifts 400

becomes mayor of a larger city

This is how it works right?

I actively disliked bacon looong before going vegan. It smells bad and the amount of fat that renders out when you cook it is just plain uncanny. Why is it never a high-quality french Jambon or Prosciutto with those people?

They can't spell those words, for starters.

They think it works that way because that's the way it works for them.

Show them a picture of Mecca and they freak right the fuck out.

The War on Christmas is absolutely real and it is the height of ignorance to pretend otherwise. To be crystal clear Christmas is the 12 day season between 12/25 and 1/6. Anyone complaining about people not saying "Merry Christmas" outside of 12/25-1/6 is talking about the wrong season.

Advent starts with the first of four Sundays before Christmas day. This is typically after American thanksgiving has taken place and is the actual season that is going on when people complain about "The War on Christmas". The proper greeting for this season will refer to Advent and not Christmas because 12/1-12/23 is not Christmas.

To sum up there is a War on Christmas and the aggressors are the ones bitching about people not saying Merry Christmas during Advent.

Or talk about how you're eating less meat/became vegan and they'll act like you're demanding them to become vegan too.

[–] Masamune@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I once told someone I enjoy eating meat. Later they caught me eating tofu, because I enjoy eating that too. It was fun watching them implode!

Ah yes, Christian Nationalist attacks on other Abrahamic religions. How's that poly blend mask fitting these days?

Bacon is to Muslims as Broccoli is to a White Nationalist.

[–] some_kind_of_guy@lemmy.world 6 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (2 children)

I travel around my (deep purple) state with a satchel of various brassicas. Going out of the house in this area without a curated collection of cruciferous comestibles would be like going into a hot war without merely a sidearm.

  • Everyone knows that any green thing can ward off the common MAGA chud, but many are unaware that so-called "enlightened" centrists are actually attracted to broccoli. Don't be fooled. For them, you must brandish brussels sprouts - preferably still attached to a long stalk. Then, launch into a cooking lesson, but do NOT DETACH OR BOIL THE SPROUTS. You will have your quarry at the first hint of Maillard's reaction, and they will either join your cause or become total hermits.
  • Liberals will claim to favor kale, but I've had success presenting them with multiple diverse varietials while explaining that "Lacinato" and "Dinosaur" are both equally accurate and acceptable terms when used to refer to the bumpy, dark green kind. Your utter indifference to - and rejection of - their "correct" preference will eventually send them into a blind, self-destructive rage - if you're patient and hold the line. Just be sure to stand outside their blast radius when they finally go.
  • You must be creative and self-assured when it comes to libertarians, but try showing off a fresh romanesco cauliflower while delivering a long-winded (but efficient) diatribe in which you logically interweave fractals, calculus, coastlines, cacti, psychedelics and concepts of cognitive sovereignty. Once they sense that you have more than a surface-level understanding of these topics, and genuinely care about how they each relate to objective, consensus reality, they pathetically slink away like old goats, having fired not a single round of reloaded ammunition out of their bespoke 3d-printed handgun.

Good luck out there!

It's projection. If you showed them a rainbow or a Day of the Dead decoration, they'd get super offended and bent out of shape. And because that's how they react to things they don't like, they assume that's how everyone else reacts, too.

The best part of living in an area with a lot of Muslims is all the halal burger places that use beef bacon.

I'm remembering a paragraph of one of the Witcher books where a vampire is at a fancy ball at a royal court and while eating a garlic soup with his silver spoon he was explaining in great detail to a patron seated near him that vampires are deathly afraid of silver and the slightest touch of silver will immediately kill them

Variation of bone apple tea.

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 14 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Except bone apple tea is self aware. Good chance bone-petite isn’t.

People seem to forget that Muslims are allowed to touch pork products, they're just not allowed to pray after touching them unless they ritualistically purify themselves by washing their hands, mouth, nose, face, forearms, head, ears and feet (the order is different as well as what parts you wash in different schools of thought).

Doing all that is a bit of a kerfuffle so a good number of Muslims just choose to avoid touching anything that could invalidate their purity, but the worst that can happen is they have to wash themselves again before they pray.

Obviously they're not allowed to eat it, but it's nowhere near as bad as racists would have you think where even being in the presence of pork products is enough to make Muslims melt into the floor like the wicked witch.

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 11 points 6 days ago (6 children)

Some Muslims really are like that. The ones who are, are usually from the more backward countries.

But Islam also says that if you're starving and pork is the only available food, eat the pork.

Alcohol, on the other hand, is a hard no.

Now in my view, I don't see how any religion that forbids carnitas can possibly be divinely inspired.

Even so, I've never met an Islamophobe who isn't a raving asshole, but I've met a number of Muslims who are good people, even if I don't agree with some of their religious prohibitions.

bone-petite

[–] Grass@sh.itjust.works 25 points 6 days ago

same fuckers that loose their shit when I tell them I prefer dog bacon but I'm also kinda sick of it because I just got back from visiting family in china and my family doesn't cook much of the more well known dishes. we just eat wild/kennel dog and wild salad.

then I ask them why they let heir government officials shoot dogs for misbehaving when they haven't even been trained

It's always some kind of projection, these are the people who get triggered by the mere existence of LBGTQ people.

They legitimately think their reaction is normal so these posts would trigger the muslims too.

I just feel sorry for the Kirk family. They name their kid James, and he ends up a bigot.

we still have 203 years before the real James T Kirk is born. so we're safe

guy puts templar cross in his profile, likely first to die of disease and exhaustion if he actually participated in middle age crusades

I love how they automatically assume they would be high ranking knights drinking wine in the tent whereas they would likely be the cannon fodder.
