can someone explain the origin of the name of one of my favs, :discourse:?

It's from food packaging. I want to say it was originally from Sweden but I could be wrong. Vegeta all purpose seasoning is what the product specifically is. Other than that it's a stereotypical Italian chef who has presumably just kissed his fingers and is very happy with what he is about to serve. That's the full on origin. Why it's called discourse escapes me.

edit: Oh, you wanted the name not the image. My sleep-deprived brain has apparently decided that reading comprehension is optional right now. That I don't know.

going back to my friend who talked about a neopets saga, she said this about it:

"ugggh i just remembered something that annoys me a lot
on SA there was a neopets nostalgia thread and that was fine
we were all logging into our 15-year dormant accounts and fussing over our dying akaras and poo poo
but then all these 30yo women started taking it really seriously bc goons are terrible
that neednt have been so bad, a lil odd but not super weird
but then they started posting all the best ways to min-max ur neopoints and how to get the TOP TIER ACCESSORIES and it turns out the fastest way to get them is entering competitions for like, art or short stories
but it's a kids' game, so the judges aren't going to just give the top prizes to ppl who are obviously adults, so they were posting all these fuckin strategies for drawing/writing to seem like a child
so they could basically steal the dumb neopet digital toys from the actual kids who used the site"

I think it's kinda a shame weirdo history smilies basically died out now that terrible emojis are like absolutely everywhere. I mean, lowkey because some old threads look like a :supaburn: apocalypse but still. I'm guessing the switch to mobile didn't help which is funny because now every keyboard has emoji support.

I was going to depress myself by looking into when the smilie history thread started/ended but was pleasantly surprised to see it's still kicking. It started in 2012, time is a lie and you're already dead old goon :corsair:.

I once tried, with nothing at all to do with any such thread, to try to log into my old Neopets account like 10 years ago (after about another 10 years or something? I played it late elementary school) and back then they wouldn't let you log into an account that old that had been inactive so long.
