Mate, if you’ve met an ice cream truck driver who’d just let you walk away with all their goods and a promise that you’d pay them back, I need to know where you live. I want in on that.
hey, gimme a cart, i’ll go roam around and sell these before they spoil, you keep 80 or 90% of the money when i come back with the empty cart.
Tell you what: I’ll give you a time traveling device and the ability to jump into any fictional world that has ever existed.
Find me one where they would accept that “deal” if you didn’t pay up front.
If you do this, you’re going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater.
Fun fact: you can just pirate stuff.
You don’t have to make semantic arguments to justify to yourself why it’s actually moral or not technically stealing or whatever. You can just pirate stuff.
Also, check this out: I can throw something in the fire and it definitely won’t burn you.
(Giggling) no, really, pick it up! (ppppfffthhhh)
Look, if we shake hands? Your name is immediately thrown into the void. You will forever be “Oh hey!” to me.
I take issue with the word “immigrant” as it implies compliance, but okay.
No, that was not my intent, but I see your point. I think this is really all I meant to say:
Most former colonies of Britain can feel the influence of its culture a lot more than Britain feels the influence of any of its colonies’ cultures.
So when Britain says “we totally invented how to put butter and spices in a tomatoe base and add some chicken”. And tries to claim one of the last few things they haven’t from this subcontinent? I get kinda angry.
But, more to my point: let’s say I walk into an English pub, and ask what they’ve got on the menu. How many times do you think they’ll tell me about the unseasoned fried fish, or the unseasoned fried potatoes, before they mention “oh and we’ve got chicken tikka masala”
Not exactly a national dish, in my opinion.
“British chefs with South Asian heritage” lmao. That’s one way of putting it.
Yes. I agree. It is VERY British.
Would you like to go more into the origin of the phrase “British-Indian”?
I’m not disagreeing there. But were those British chefs who came up with it? And not chefs they brought back from places which Brits had conquered? Obviously no.
And, needless to say, tikka masala is about as far from modern English cuisine as you can get.
Lmao I guess when you’ve subjugated half the world, you can claim any dish as your own.
Holy shit. I never thought I’d live to see the effective prevention of side fumbling. We truly live in a world,
Thank you for proving this wrong.
But please let me live in this world where a dongfish has a horngus for just a little while longer.
Lol, yeah. That was my bad.
LMAO okay, yes reading and writing are two separate skills. You got me there.
You never intended to speak to me in honest. I see that now. I’m cutting out.
Good question. I can’t answer that. I probably should’ve been nicer.
“Jesus take the weave” is the closest I could get. Anyone got any better?
