I think the British put tomato sauce in their canned beans.

[–] GandalftheBlack@feddit.org 5 points 2 hours ago

Yeah, the commercially available baked beans (not baked) are in a horrible sweet tomato sauce. I haven't eaten any in a long time.

Is this a metaphor I'm not recognizing?

[–] QueenHawlSera@sh.itjust.works 11 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

It's a metaphor for entitled Karens

Why did you say Karens twice?

[–] TheNamlessGuy@lemmy.world 26 points 2 hours ago (2 children)

Why would you post this without context? IIRC this was in response to someone complaining that Goblin Slayer was about slaying goblins, and no other monsters

This is very important, thanks

what a boorish genocidal anime, with such a kickass theme song

I'm not making an argument, but I'm curious whether you feel the same way about demons in Frieren.

[–] tetris11@feddit.uk -3 points 1 hour ago (2 children)

I do.

Frieren seems so chill and passive, except when it comes to demons and then it's like "NO THEIR KIND CANNOT BE TRUSTED", and everyone's like "will you chill? it's just a kid" and she's like "THE CHILD MUST DIE"

See my stackexchange post asking for clarification on this:

https://anime.stackexchange.com/questions/68783/on-what-basis-does-frieren-sousou-no-frieren-reject-the-rights-of-demons-to-ex

Apparently the answer is "all is explained in the manga, how dare you ask this question"

Wow the only thing true in this post is that you asked a question on stack exchange

[–] tetris11@feddit.uk 1 points 17 minutes ago

I guess I was trying to be funny, but came across as deranged(?)

Apologies to anyone I offended

[–] stray@pawb.social 1 points 16 minutes ago

Damn, people are real mad you don't like their elf waifu.

Fake: one can is surely not a bit too many beans

Gay: My gay friends eat beans. Anon eats beans. Ergo, anon is gay. QED.


Edit: My roommate, who is pansexual, says I should have said anon is pan “because you can put beans in a pan” …I think we might both just be very sleep deprived because, rereading this, I’m not sure either joke is actually funny at all but we’re cracking up lol

You can also put tomato and salad in a pan, but there is no tomato and salad, and that is sad.

The fakeness and gayness test is always mandatory, don't worry about funniness

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 10 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Am I too normal to understand this?

According to another comment this was in response to someone complaining that Goblin Slayer only has Goblins and no other monsters.

So Anon "Bought a Can of Beans" by watching an anime about a guy called the Goblin Slayer, and is mad that there "Wasn't any salad in the Can of Beans," because all he does is... Slay Goblins.

[–] Salamanderwizard@lemmy.world 8 points 6 hours ago

It's a mad world.
