@TalkBack83 @J0nas42 @eeeeow "Hamburgers were created in America" there a few Germans going back to about 1750 would like a quick word with you
English
You're all getting too hung up on the bread when burger is not about bread

I know most Americans are sleeping rn But I need to ask, I can wait Is a "Patty Melt" a burger or a sandwich for you? Wiki says burger
English
@SanguisKultus @J0nas42 @eeeeow Sorry, you misunderstood slightly - I meant that no American would misidentify a chicken sandwich as a chickenburger. (The other guy thinks chicken sandwiches are chickenburgers.)
English
@J0nas42 @TalkBack83 @eeeeow I don’t care what other countries call it - he said Americans don’t call it chicken sandwich which is just not true
English
@CommieKamikaze @PollyPorridge There is no "thing they add that makes chocolate taste like vomit." That's literally not a thing that exists.
English
@PollyPorridge I would guess Australian chocolate tastes worse because of the heat we deal with. The thing they add that makes chocolate taste like vomit now is to preserve the milk in it so they would likely add more in hotter climates where it's more likely to go bad.
English
This is exactly why English and Australia Cadbury taste different
Laura Lupin@bugsandfishes
Omg you guys it's so hot they've had to tape off the chocolate down the corner shop because it's all melted.
English
Hm, maybe if British cinema spent more time critiquing British colonialism maybe OP would have been able to grow past his self-centered colonizer mindset.
English
Then again, OP's British, so I don't really expect him to be able to understand that cultures other than his own exist. Godzilla criticizes the ppl he hates, he doesn't care that it's actually racist erasure of Bikinians.
English
Offensively stupid take. Godzilla is about the Bikini tests, and is an example of post-war JP's desperate need to appropriate and erase any actual victimhood of war & colonialism they can for thmslves.
Brick Cucumber (Lego)@BrickCucumber
The Hulk has never been done correctly in live action because the American film industry is still beholden to never criticise the existence of Nuclear weaponry. Godzilla exists as a response to this destructive power and is a clear inspiration for Hulk but studios are too (1/2)
English
@J0nas42 @denimneverdies Brits are so stupid that they had to invent the word "beefburger" to keep themselves from getting confused because they think hamburgers are made of ham.
That colonial mindset never went away - steal sthng frm anthr culture then give it a new name bcz you can't understand it.
English
@denimneverdies Which part of the word 'chicken" contains the word "ham'?
English
The word "hamburger" comes from "hamburg steak" ie cooking meat that has been ground and shaped into a patty, not the bun or the other toppings. A "chicken burger" would thus mean a patty of ground chicken, not a slab of chicken that has been fried

Americans will call a chicken burger a “chicken sandwich” even though it’s clearly in a burger bun
English
@J0nas42 @the_ason @DanielH_LUFC "Let me teach 'y'all' something" proceeds to use AI slop from random people on Quora.
Heinz baked beans are American. British baked beans don't differ from American baked beans, because you're literally just eating American mass-produced canned food and claiming it as your own.
English
@the_ason @RealMcCoy2008 @DanielH_LUFC Let me teach "yall" something - for a start, as I've already explained multiple times, our Heinz beans are completely different to your Heinz beans. Secondly, they aren't the only baked bean we "yall" eat, and, while the most popular, arenowhere near the best.
English
Yall eat beans in ketchup sauce
Calm the fuck down
HAJiME@saiyanhajime
My fellow Brits are so bad at slagging off American food. Grits. Grits exists. And it's not some weird thing, it's literally on breakfast menus all over the South. Next time they come for Beans on Toast, just start replying with a photo of Grits.

@J0nas42 @eeeeow The original hamburger was in sliced bread. That's what a hamburger is.
Again, the American definition is the only correct one. There's no contradiction.
I like the "lol" you threw in there - smugly laughing at things you're too stupid to understand and too arrogant to learn.
English
@TalkBack83 @eeeeow But now you're all contradicting that by saying a burger can be in 2 slices of bread lol.
English
@mn007vevo @Chirurgic @skeleoncemore You're joking, but I had an English guy tell me, dead serious, that the proper name is "beefburger" because "obviously a hamburger would have ham in it."
They literally invented a whole new word because they were confused by the "ham" in "hamburger.
English
You guys aren't gonna make every mocking joke about us revolve around burgers and then try to claim we don't know what a burger is
Largacty3 𓅃@largacty3
Americans will call a chicken burger a “chicken sandwich” even though it’s clearly in a burger bun
English
@DaBigChillSFW There aren't two sides and there's no "chickenburger debate."
Brits created the word "beefburger" because they thought hamburgers were made w/ ham, and ppl just ran with it.
It's not a debate, y'all are literally just confused by German loanwords (and wrong).
English
Now THIS is the debate I was looking for lol
The chicken burger/sandwich debate has people on both sides firm on their stances as they're already called as such
Now THIS...
This might be a "Schrödinger's Burgwich"?
It's both a burger and a sandwich depending on how you view it

@eeeeow You Americans changed the definition of burger (defining what a modern day burger is), and now you're all trying to walk it back so you can defend calling a chicken burger a chicken sandwich 😭

@1962KINUFC @jimmyjohns1122 World Wide Web is Swiss, stop lying.
English
@jimmyjohns1122 We do, the UK invented the World Wide Web, computers, trains, reflecting telescope, jet engines, Industrial Revolution, tin cans, first modern torpedo, thermos flask, first practical hovercraft, pneumatic tire, chocolate bar, lawnmower, cat flap, IVF etc etc. We’re great thanks.

@jelly_pack English ppl in England doing incredibly English things:
You: "Everything I don't like about my country is foreigners' fault. Why did America make us do this??!!"
You're the exact same as them.

@Dunaidan3019 @PariPuri_ ALL peter jackson related movies are "fake Tolkien."
English
@PariPuri_ Oh my gosh I know. Every single promotional video has began with a snippet of PJ’s films. It’s so forced.
And then the “welcome back to middle earth” feels like it could be interpreted as more unintentional (or quite possibly intentional) shade at RoP for being “fake” Tolkien
English
“The War of Rohirrim is a great return to Middle-Earth-”
English
@PariPuri_ @Dunaidan3019 Except it's not a Tolkien cartoon, it's a Peter Jackson cartoon, and those ppl have always been Jackson's target audience. His movies have always pandered to hypermacho white supremacists.
English
@Dunaidan3019 It’s so sad, cause this is such a genuinely unique and amazing concept, a freaking Tokien anime movie!!! But they’re making it all about them, and not about the ACTUAL ppl who worked on the film!!!! Because they’re being petty!!!! And trying to engage the worst ppl!!!
English
@imdanielholt This is a srs question. Trump is talking abt mass denaturalization of minorities *just like post-war JP did*, which is what the myth of "homogeneity" is based on. It's the same racist nonsense, and WotC literally built Kamigawa on it.
English
@imdanielholt Was this just pandering to the JP audience, or does WotC just genuinely buy into that racism?
Like, why dis WotC go out of their way to erase indigenous ppl and other minorities frm Kamigawa then include fucking *ramen* in your MtG cookbook????
