A vanilla mocha is a 3 bean soup
Do not like.
Use soy milk to make it a 4 bean soup.
Just a heads up, this was posted yesterday.
🤌💋
And it’s a repost of the only @The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world
Who largely outsources with credit, but the point stands. I only brought it up initially since there’s a chance the mods (including the man himself) could remove it.
I just woke up from a nap and misread this thread to mean that I had accidentally reposted this without realizing it, which is something I’ve done before…
The post has a high ratio of upvotes, and new people are probably enjoying it, so I suppose I’ll just leave it up this time. No harm, no foul.
Then no worries about my initial comment.
Excuse me sir. Why exactly were you taking a nap instead of entertaining us more?
I’ve failed you. I don’t think I even got around to posting a single meme today!
Dance, monkey, dance!
My client currently shows both posts adjacent to each other, lol.
Oh would you look at that, both are upvoted and it seems to be staying that way!
Wtf? Even my descriptivist ass is telling whoever came up with that that they’re wrong. A burrito is a calzone? An enchilada is sushi? Words mean what you mean when you say them, but they also need to have some structural stability. Out here calling sushi toast. Wtf.
You poor unsaved soul. No, sushi (such as pigs in a blanket) is sushi. Toast (such as nigiri) is toast.
If I ask for salmon on a bagel, and I get butter on toast, we’re having words.
I’m sorry, what’s the difference exactly? That’s just two terms for a flat layer of starch with non-starch on top. “Toast,” if you will.
You’re describing a pizza. Toast is a biscotti.
Bru the page literally calls it nigiri sushi
Well of course nigiri sushi isn’t a type of sushi.
You think earwigs are an affectation worn by people who are self-conscious about their lack of ear hair? That lightyears are a unit of time? That a urinal cake is a type of lasagna?
Ugh. How awful. How could a burrito be a calzone when a calzone is a ravioli?
All this taught me is that cube rule is fundamentally flawed.
When the true Cube Rule believers are rewarded with all manner of toast, sandwiches, tacos, sushi, quiches, calzones, salads, cakes, nachos, and muffins, you’ll be sorry you plied your tasteless heresy this day, filthy food miscategorizer! I bet you call hot dogs “sandwiches” like a true troglodite!
That film I split when I squeeze my beloved sandwich while eating.
My true objection is the lack of sushi in sushi. It fails in self alignment.
All the food is good; but so much fails the carb rule.
Oh, you’re just confused, you see. Of course sushi (such as enchaladas) are sushi. See? Would you care to recite the Creed of Cubic Food with me now?
But if those are served in a bread, cereal is quiche
Nachos are open faced sandwiches
A common misconception. You see, nachos are foods composed of a starch within a substrate of non-starch. What you’re calling “open faced sandwiches” are a form of “toast” in which non-starch sits atop a layer of starch.
It’s gazpacho
Pardon me, maître d’, but this Fruity Pebbles is not warm.
It’s just a little dirty, the pigs still good
In my world, calling cereal a soup is like calling a grape an apple. Soup is not an encompassing category, soup is a genericized standalone object, along the lines of a platonic form. The same is true of a hot dog. When we reference a BLT as a sandwich, it is simply referencing the generic, rather than the specific, it’s like referencing a tissue rather than a kleenex.
Within this framework, there are no real sandwiches. There is no real soup. That utensil you might eat it with? Not real either, champ.
There is an argument regarding morning soup?
Depends if you call the sandwich next to it a grilled cheese or a melt
No
My answer to this is “technically it is but shut up”
I don’t need this crises right now
Cereal is a salad
Only some cereals are soups. Lucky charms in milk is a soup. Frosted Flakes in milk is not. A soup has to be a collection of different ingredients in a liquid medium.
Is Trix a soup? I have no clue.
/fight_me
Milk is soup. Tomato soup is soup. Tomato soup with crackers is soup. So frosted flakes is soup.
Silly. Trix are kids.
Four of them, to be exact
They’re are FIVE trixs!
Bro they literally say that trix are 4 kids idunno where you’re getting 5 from
There are five Trix!
A hotdog is a taco. Starch on 3 sides.
Is cereal soup, no since milk is optional
Wasn’t every meal technically soup?
Salad
Ah yes, the salad theory 😁

The purpose of language is communication. If I were to say “I had soup for breakfast” when I really had cereal, it would probably communicate the wrong idea. Cereal is not soup, and it is not necessary to produce a robust, cereal-excluding definition of soup to defend this point.
