XbSuper, to comicstrips in "Last Word" by J.L Westover

Rizz was the final straw for me. I no longer have any interest in attempting to understand today’s youth.

They just need to shut up and get off my lawn.

I’ve never heard the term before. I guess that makes me extra old.

chiliedogg,

The first time I yelled at young people to get off the grass was oddly freeing.

I now fully embrace the grump.

I still don’t understand why the cooking skill of my parents sucked this bad. I started cooking on my own when I moved out and even after just a bit of practise and good recipes you can cook tasty meals. How do you go on 50 years failing this, I don’t understand. If I see another bowl of dry rice, canned peas and ready marinated chicken from some discounter I’m going to throw up.

    Practise is correct UK spelling.

    afraid_of_zombies,

    What does the UK know about English?

    DillyDaily,

    Practise is a verb, practice is a noun.

    I like to remember it with the following sentence.

    “The doctor had to practise his surgery skills before he could open his own private practice clinic”

    Verb, S=surgery. Noun, C=clinic

    michaelmrose,

    It’s funny that you offer correction. UK English makes this distinction, US English doesn’t and uses practice for both. Internationally where many English speakers mix neither usage can really be said to be incorrect. Pedantry fail.

    DillyDaily,

    Eh, I’m not that invested as to feel I’ve failed. To fail you need to try. I just like fighting fire with fire when I see people correcting other’s spelling online.

    At the end of the day, as long as you’re communicating your message effectively whatever you’ve written has done it’s job. I’m dyslexic, people offering unnecessary spelling advice irks me, so if they make a “mistake” (at least, as far as prescriptive English goes) I’m going to annoy them the same way their comments annoys everyone else. If they’re not annoyed by it, well who cares, nothing gained nothing lost.

    alekwithak,

    Boomers came up as fast food franchises and convenience foods began to dominate. The equal rights movement meant more women in the workplace and less in the kitchen and instead of spreading the burden, capitalism filled in the gaps.

    AnagrammadiCodeina,

    Too many people order shitty delivery so that they can save 15 minutes cooking while spending 3 times more

    Smoogs,

    And damage the organs with the much higher salt and sugar content.

    AnagrammadiCodeina,

    Well to damage the organs you need to eat VERY badly for decades but yes in general i agree

    Smoogs,

    Much can go wrong before 50.

    afraid_of_zombies,

    Because they did cook well at one point. It took hours, it involved a lot of cleanup, and 4 year old you whined and complained for some chicken nuggets and the fucking candy bar your aunt gave you without talking to your parents first.

    So they gave up. The tantrums, the rejection, the effort. None of it was worth it. Like pretty much every skill in life it atrophied.

    I loved to cook and I’m good at it. My 5-year-old won’t eat a burger I made and asks instead to go to the “burger store”. I don’t want to cook much anymore.

    afraid_of_zombies,

    Know the feeling. Feel so defeated. Fighting this losing battle against all the crap junk food people want to give my kids on top of the normal tendency of children to only enjoy bland food.

    rchive,

    Another explanation is that American cuisine got wrecked by the Great Depression. Everything that had flavor was expensive. People’s inability to purchase and make certain foods stopped generational transfer of knowledge on how to make certain things. Thankfully, after several generations it’s finally recovering.

    “Ethnic” food (non European) wasn’t as affected as much.

    I heard an interview about a book on it a few years ago but now I can’t find it.

    qooqie, to comicstrips in "Do Nothing" by MrLovenstein

    Do nothing and realize it’s okay. Life is tough guys, everyone needs a break, and there’s no race. I like to take life slow because then I can really slow down and notice all the beautiful details this world has to offer.

    I’m tired of being told to feel guilty about taking my time and y’all should too! Let’s be better and understanding and less judging especially to ourselves ☺️

    Every generation does this. The boomers had their fair share of dumb slang terms as well but for some reason everyone loves to hate the next generation for doing the exact same thing.

    It’s… Humor

    Smoogs, (edited )

    And real life experiences with intolerable people is what humor can be built on. There is no rule on that. Stories can be based on reality.

    Pohl,

    Ok, what is the joke? I think the creator thinks that it’s funny to have an extreme reaction (murder) to a minor infraction (liking the wrong kind of food).

    If you (like the creator) believe that the idea of “liking the wrong foods” will resonate with an audience as a social infraction. Well, ffs let people live their lives.

    The premise for the joke is obnoxious.

    Ophioparma,

    I am pretty sure the woman in the comic is the self-insert of the creator and they think it is funny that people have an extreme reaction to the author’s minor infraction and that you should let people live their lives.

    Kichae,

    The joke is that eating pizza backwards is one step too far.

    Smoogs,

    Especially since the origin of pizza is “let’s just use up what is left in the fridge cuz we’re broke”. it’s the elitist gate keeping asshole who deserves all the shame in this scenario

    Ziglin,

    But did the Italians back then have fridges and pineapples?

    Smoogs, (edited )

    Not all food that gets cooked on a pizza needs a fridge. But either way you’re skipping the point. it’s literally leftovers combined, with or without a fridge. Probably even more so without a fridge if food goes bad faster.

    The point is it’s a peasant food made of literally anything because scarcity.

    So in all fairness to to the benefit it provides there should be no rule that there has to be a pineapple or not.

    jBlight, to comicstrips in "Pineapple Pizza" by Salo_Comic

    Back or front, I’ve heard of… But eating a pizza from the side!? Lol

    Btw pineapple pizza is the best. Tomato juice also rocks. Fight me. Haha

    Gabu,

    Tell that to any Italian and you’ll get in a fight, alright.

    Smoogs,

    If they did they’d be a classist bigot not worth fighting. pizza is peasant food invented not for taste but to not starve. If you’re going to so low to gatekeep fight someone for that, that is definitely on the wrong side of history.

    Food purists aren't worth engaging in anyways.

    Taco2112, (edited )

    Oh no, some Italians are upset about random people enjoying things, sounds like they need to get over themselves.

    ricecake,

    Based on what I’ve heard on the Internet, Italians will straight murder you for eating anything other that a meal directly cooked by their grandmother because it’s ineffably wrong, and not endowed by the spirit of Italy.

    If course, actual Italians I’ve known are normal people who typically don’t care what you eat.

    OutOfMemory,

    Roma pizza is square, what if you get a slice with no crust?

    Papanca, to comicstrips in "Spell and Speak" by Mr.Lovenstein

    The three phrases of kitties:

    Let me in!

    Let me out!

    Give me fresh food, even though my bowl is still pretty full

    query,

    If you can, should give them fresh food each time and not leave it out to become stale. Have meal times and meal sizes (or cover it up).

    Papanca,

    I don’t know why you got downvoted, i completely agree with you. They really love fresh food and fresh water (those water fountains), it’s just their nature. It’s not that they are spoiled. Dogs for instance will also eat from a carcass, but wild felines only eat fresh

    FuglyDuck,
    @FuglyDuck@lemmy.world avatar

    Also, the bonus phrase:

    “Schritches…… enough scritches.”

    Papanca,

    They don’t need to say that; they will just sit on your papers or laptop, or stand right in front of the tv

    FuglyDuck,
    @FuglyDuck@lemmy.world avatar

    It’s more of a non verbal thing.

    When they want scritches, they’ll let you know

    And when they’re done…. They’ll let you know that, too….

    havokdj, to comicstrips in "Just Season It" by Mr.Lovenstein

    So the question is…

    Who was he referring to when he said “oh my god”?

    Venat0r,

    His son.

    havokdj,

    Semantics aside, Jesus is supposed to be the physical embodiment of god, so wouldn’t it still pretty much just be the same guy?

    agarorn,

    This is a very debated question which mostly depends on which Christian confession you belong to.

    SatansMaggotyCumFart,

    If the father, son and holy ghost had an orgy would it be a threesome or just masturbating?

    MystikIncarnate,

    weirdwallace75,

    That’s a whole mess of differing theologies, some of which (many of which) have been declared heretical.

    The general term for this branch of theology is Christology and lots of stuff has been written about it.

    Donttaintmebro,

    Don’t try try to bring logic to the illogical.

    ours,

    It’s both the same and different. The contradiction is a “feature” of the Christian faith.

    lingh0e,
    Grass,

    I would have written that as “oh my me”

    yum, to memes in This Event is True. Image is false.

    Why do we need to include a relatable caption when the original one is funny already?

    Its also because big ass herbivores are actually really dangerous.

    Sharks don’t actually like the taste of humans because we’re a little too lean. So they won’t actively hunt you unless they’re starving. There’s only really one reason why a shark is out to get you. There’s many reasons a herbivore will mess you up.

    A big herbivore will fk you up because he’s having a bad day and you got too close. Or its mating season and everyone is potential competition. Or they mistook you for a predator cause of their poor eyesight. Or a bird flew away nearby and one of them got startled and now you’re in a path of a stampede.

    cows_are_underrated,

    Sharks may also bite you by accident, because they mistake you for a seal.

    How dangerous a bull is also depends on his age. While getting older he will start to lose the fear/respect for humans. This will get to a point where being alone with him is a literal death sentence.
