Only an American would think a slab of cheddar would be tasteless.

Emphasis on the “slab”. I add a cheese slice to my sandwich and feel indulgent.

They are projecting their own “cheese products” unto the cheese of others.

We do in fact have cheese here

I like how you look at a picture of a dude eating a raw onion and a slab of cheese on a roll and think “fucking Americans.”

Yawn yawn yawn, get new material Lemmy.

And you think “brittish food bad and bland” is some kind of revolutionary humour here?
Show threadDozzi92Feb 4
I didn’t make the joke. I think the sandwich looks awful no matter who’s eating it. I do not discriminate in my hate for awful sandwiches, I will dole it out accordingly.

But you did read the post, right? You understand what we’re talking about here, right?

I appreciate what you’re saying, but I wasn’t aware that commenting on a post suddenly made me adopt any and all of it’s opinions. But when I see folks turn a post about a cheese and onion sandwich into an America bad jerkfest, I just felt compelled to point out how stupid that is, in spite of the fact that I probably agree with them.

Turning every tech post into Linux praise and every anything post into America bad does not create a healthy, entertaining community. It’s boring and repetitive. You understand that. Right?

You know what doesn’t create a healthy and entertaining community? Whiny, defensive Americans playing victim.

What in the original post has anything to do with America? Do you think it’s good to just go comment unrelated shit all over the place? Nothing says anything relating to America at all, and yet, no surprise, someone makes it about America somehow. How does that not bother you? We’re in shitpost for fucks sake.

It’s almost like you have spent half a century making yourselves the biggest, easiest, most deserving target and are hilariously incapable of acknowledging valid criticism.

You’re absolutely right. What’s it got to do with this post?

It’s actually a tradition in between Northern Illinois and Southern Wisconsin to have onion and cheese sandwiches, Limburger cheese is made in Monroe and is quite possibly the best pairing to raw onions, so I wholeheartedly believe it’s now almost entirely exclusive to the American pallete nowadays, and this post is the anomaly.

Well that’s weird, but you Midwesterners are weird to me, so it makes sense!

I always liked to joke that, like, west of Wisconsin and Minnesota is the Midwest, and then Montana and Nevada are the West, and that Illinois and Indiana are the Mideast. It’s not a good joke.

My not-a-good joke that I’ll say anyway is, when someone asks my age, I’ll say something obviously too young, like 25. They’ll smirk or roll their eyes, and I’ll continue, “I am twenty-five years old, but I’m also sixty.”

No one has ever laughed. And, that’s why I keep saying it. Someday, someone will laugh, I just know it!

I like the joke, and maybe I’ll steal it in 20 years or so.
