Though what Americans think of as a pretzel is just a sad squiggle of brown dough.

My guess is they think you only have the small crunchy ones in the US like these: https://sopuli.xyz/pictrs/image/da54bd14-ef7a-44a2-a8b0-b3087aef4492.jpeg

To be fair, when people in the US think of a “pretzel”, those are the ones they think of. You can buy big bags of those in any supermarket. If you want to get a big, bready pretzel, you have to go to a restaurant.

Holzkohlen,

A restaurant? What about your local bakery? Laugengebäck is amazing, you should eat more of it!

Melonenbaum, in There's a reason they went to war over Helen of Troy

Yes, there was a reason that they went to war for Hellen of Troy. The reason were tons over tons of contracts, promises and agreements, that literally forced the whole mainland Greece to help Hellen’s husband return her from Troy.

Oh, no no no, this is actually just a plane shedding its skin, like a snake. In actuality, humans just fly around in the shed skin; you wouldn't believe the industrial plane farms we have to encourage the shedding of skin we can use.

No, big planes have to do this sometimes after digesting excess passengers and cargo.

lugal,

Look closely: these planes are different. Some planes lay eggs into other planes and this is how it looks when the baby plane eats the host

I spent a month in Germany last year. Turns out the most authentic German food is currywurst and middle eastern food lol.

But maybe that’s just in Berlin. They probably have good potato based dishes in Bavaria.

Bavaria is probably the most "German" german region. That's where all the lederhosen stereotypes come from.

Basically it's the Texas of Germany. Old school, religious, and conservative.

Edit: in the very rural parts, they even have their own dialect that to some Germans is almost completely unintelligible. I realized this when I took German language classes in high school in the USA and what they were having me learn was very much NOT the way my Bavarian mother spoke to me. It felt kind of irritating when they told me I was pronouncing things wrong and my grammar was wrong when I fuckin' lived there as a child and spoke it fluently.

hstde,

Well it’s the part where after the second world war Americans temporarily governed and American soldiers and their families where stationed. So all they ever saw of Germany was Bavaria. They took their experience back home and so the image spread.

Northern Germany is nothing like southern Germany. Yes they like their beer, but Bratwurst and pretzels? More fish and bread.

UrPartnerInCrime,
@UrPartnerInCrime@sh.itjust.works avatar

I was with you in the first half. But northern Germany still loves their beer and brats. We had bbqs almost every weekend and if you didn’t have beer and brats, you might as well not have a party.

Although there almost always way just a full fish on the grill at some point only in northern Germany so I will give you that.

Microsoft is the biggest offender of this. Use edge browser at work because have to and this don’t show again for password saving never does a damn thing. Why admins in a workplace would ever even allow option of password saving is beyond me as it seems like a risky move.

They still have to pay way more than the others, a tax cut just means they dont have to pay as much more as before, still more (percantage-wise even) than you and me.

TheFriendlyDickhead, in Trust me bro it's 100% true

You don’t just sent pictures of beheaded baby’s into the internet.

  1. What the fuck
  2. For an individual it’s even illegal to forward them
  3. Even dead children have rights, so the parents have to confirm that those pictures can be forwarded into the world, what probably won’t happen.
Annoyed_Crabby,

Or at least the Israeli news agency should be able to confirm it, else it’s just empty claim like how Putin likes to pull.

Unverified reports of ‘40 babies beheaded’ in Israel-Hamas war inflame social media - NBC News

Marc Owen Jones, an associate professor of Middle East studies at Hamad Bin Khalifa University in Qatar who studies misinformation, told NBC News that he found that the source of the “40 babies beheaded” allegations largely stemmed from a viral Israeli news broadcast clip that did not specifically refer to the allegation.

Nicole Zedeck, a correspondent for the privately owned Israeli news outlet i24NEWS, said in the video that Israeli soldiers told her they’d found “babies, their heads cut off.” The video has been viewed more than 11 million times on X, according to its view counter. In another tweet, Zedeck wrote that soldiers told her they believe “40 babies/children were killed.”

“Somehow those two bits of information were connected, the story became ‘40 babies were beheaded,’ and in the British press today, about six or seven newspapers had it on their front pages,” Jones said.

An IDF spokesperson, Doron Spielman, told NBC News on Tuesday that he could not confirm i24NEWS’s report.

misaloun,

The meme is poking fun at the fact that this event never happened, and there’s no evidence of it.

bstix, in Delicious!

This is pork, isn’t it?

Tb0n3,

With red blood coming out I sure hope not. It would be pretty underdone.
