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

[–] onionsinmypores@sh.itjust.works 19 points 4 hours ago

This is very important, thanks

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

[–] GandalftheBlack@feddit.org 4 points 5 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.

[–] Hozerkiller@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 hours ago

It's because goblin slayer is about a guy slaying just goblins.

Is this a metaphor I'm not recognizing?

[–] QueenHawlSera@sh.itjust.works 11 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

It's a metaphor for entitled Karens

[–] SantasMagicalComfort@piefed.world 6 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Why did you say Karens twice?

Sahara desert.

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 12 points 9 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 9 points 9 hours ago

It's a mad world.
