Ferrous, in Fish Taco

Disrespectful and wasteful as hell.

21Cabbage,

I don’t think the person who made the dish and wrote the caption are the same person, I’m going to guess this is a different dish entirely, albeit with a viscerally disturbing presentation.

WelcomeBear,

Why? Other than being an ugly fish, this is no different than stuffed crab, stuffed clams, oysters Rockefeller, lemon stuffed grilled branzino, etc.
These poor fish are just ugly as hell and the dish itself taken out of context and labeled “Tacos.” I’d never thought about it before your comment but it seems to me that including the whole animal on the plate is the least wasteful and most respectful way to eat it. When you can see its face, there’s no hiding that what you’re eating was once sentient. How much is wasted is left for the person holding the fork to decide.

Queue Mitch Hedberg…

SpaceNoodle,

*cue

Enkers, (edited )

They have somewhat distinct uses today, but cue in this sense is an alternative spelling of queue:

www.etymonline.com/word/cue

SpaceNoodle,

It’s not an “alternative spelling” if the words deviated 300 years ago.

Enkers, (edited )

Eh. In this circumstance, when you watch a video on YouTube, you’re literally adding it to a queue. Both queue and cue are appropriate.

SpaceNoodle,

Not really.

Enkers,

Yes really. There is a “now playing” queue that is active even when you’re watching a single video.

techt, (edited )

There’s a fundamental misunderstanding; the original commenter didn’t mean to use the line-style “queue” meaning, they were using it by mistake and even admitted that in a follow-on comment. They meant “cue” by its distinct definition, not the one that overlapped with “queue” long ago. It wasn’t a spelling correction – it was a homophone correction. It wasn’t a suggestion to queue up some Mitch Hedberg on yt, it was a cue for him to enter because one of his trademark jokes is about escalators.

theUnlikely,

When using “queue” or “cue,” the context is crucial for deciding which word is appropriate. The word “cue” refers to a signal for action, especially in theater, to prompt someone to do something. It’s been used in this sense since the 1500s. On the other hand, “queue” generally refers to a line or sequence of people or things waiting their turn. This meaning originated in the 1800s.

In the context of this debate:

  1. Cue: When saying “Cue Mitch Hedberg,” the word “cue” is being used correctly. It’s like saying, “Now enter Mitch Hedberg,” or “Prompt the appearance or mention of Mitch Hedberg.” It’s a signal for something specific to happen or appear, especially in a performance or presentation context.
  2. Queue: The argument for “queue” seems to be based on the YouTube context, where videos are lined up to play one after the other, hence the term “play queue.” While it’s true that watching a video on YouTube involves adding it to a play queue, the term “queue” in the sense of “Queue Mitch Hedberg” would imply adding him to a waiting list or sequence, which isn’t the intended meaning here.

And actually as far as I can see, there isn’t actually a play queue when you just click on a single video. So if the original commenter was truly trying to say “add Mitch Hedberg to your queue of videos”, fine. However, I have strong doubts about that being what they meant.

Lemjukes,

Right but that “queue” is in reference to the stack or list of videos. Not the actual of starting or signaling to start of a video. When you hit play you are cueing a video in the queue.

xionzui, (edited )

If you read what you linked, the meaning where they overlap is in the sense of a tail or something hanging down. The cue in the sense it’s used here, as a prompt to act, was in use since the 1500s in theater. The use of queue to mean a line only began in the 1800s and probably came out of the now basically unused meaning of cue/queue to refer to a tail-like thing. Curly cue and pool cue are the only remaining uses I can think of. Queue has basically lost that meaning in favor of its new one thanks to IT applications. It does not mention cue ever taking any line-related meaning.

some_guy,

Ah, you’re right. Silly me.

And invalidate the person who corrected me? No. I’ll live with my shame. I’m pedantic about writing, spelling, grammar. I made a mistake. I’ll live with it.

strawberrysocial,

Ya but in this case he’s not an actual earl, Earl is his first name.

OneWomanCreamTeam,

If my last name was Grey I would definitely name my son Earl. Unfortunately my last name isn’t Grey and I can’t have children.

I guess you could name a pet Earl Grey.

Annoyed_Crabby,

Why would she want abusive man?

Cringe2793,

Is Kanye abusive? The only thing I know about him is that he’s married to one of the kardashians. And that his kids have weird names.

dQw4w9WgXcQ,

I mean…

They are divorced, and there was a dispute over several months (or years) to resolve the divorce with several rumors about cheating and other controversies. Not saying that it indicates an physically abusive relationship, but the relationship wasn’t great either.

nomous,

Two shit people get married, nobody is surprised when their marriage is shitty.

Annoyed_Crabby,

Didn’t heard any story from his ex-spouse but man’s a classic example of narcissist, allegedly have toxic working environment in Yeezy, and also spewing hate speech left and right. Maybe not to the point of Chris Brown but doing it mentally also count as abusive.

@GladiusB@lemmy.world avatar

Look at his video with Pete. Dude has issues. And it’s not just “art”. He was good before his mom passed. Afterwards he has lost touch with reality.

mob,

I mean he’s always been like this, it’s just getting worse.

Before Donda passed, he already had the infamous “George Bush hates black people” thing and already ran up on stage at the EMAs to say he deserved the award, not the winners. I’m sure there’s plenty more documented exmaples , and in those days, the spotlight wasn’t on him 24/7.

can,

They divorced and he already remarried (kinda)
