  • But armies wouldn’t be made of rich people.

    Also also, it’s either diabetes or the HFCS, but Americans have a very distinct, plump look all around. Whereas here it’s often just a huge belly people have and maybe an extra chin or something.

    But not all all around Michelin man.

    My dad worked at a theme parn in Finland, driving the guests around in a sort of road-train. And he wasn’t a small man by no means, every gluttonous and always thirsty. Died at 70 that’s how healthy he was.

    Anyways, he was shocked and told me that he’d never seen “people shaped like that”.

    No offense.

    Well some probably.



  • It’s not weird at all.

    A perfectly natural consequence of laissez-faire capitalism leading what should and shouldn’t be regulated.

    I find it incredibly weird to imagine that some people think it normal that you can’t walk to a grocery store with fresh vegetables etc.

    Never had Doritos or Funyons or Twinkies in my life. I tried Oreos once, but I’m more used to the equivalent we have here (copied and slightly altered by some decades and decades ago.)

    I don’t think there’s anything I prefer as the American version. Perhaps like if you use the word to encompass all American countries, maybe, ~authentic Mexican is pretty nice and usually gluten free.

    It’s a lot about food deserts and infra and regulation, but also using HFCS instead of some other sugars does have an effect.

    Even though we got very gluttonous people as well, somehow ours aren’t just ever as Michelin Man shaped. It’s more like a huuuuge belly with skinny legs and arms and head. Well some diabetic people do tend to swell up quite a bit but…

    Edit talking of nachos I fking got some and salsa, thank for the indirect reminder. Although I’m too bothered somehow that they’ve made the chips round instead of triangles.

    Edit 2 I’m changing my mind a little as these do get a nice amount of salsa if they’re a little bent





  • Holy fuck Americans, honestly.

    Your obesity issue is out of hand.

    So is your fascism, but geowd dawm those are some chunky soldiers.

    When I was in the army these boys would’ve prolly not been able to keep up and would’ve been sent home to eat Ozempic and diet for a year or two before returning to the brigade.

    Hell, I’m a supply NCO, trained as a quartermaster as well and I don’t think we’d have sizes big enough, lol.

    Yes. And I’m also the one who jokingly claimed to not understand the very basic English and blender terms around your username.

    I believe my generation is considered somewhat technologically literate, see. As is Lemmy. I, however, half-jokingly implied I am not.

    How do you have the patience and time for that?

    I enjoy writing and it really doesn’t take that long to hit a quick reply on your phone. A large majority of my comments is just very shitty attempts at jokes, but got to work on the material somewhere and there’s not really venues around here.
