Not the DC Batman, the other sort of batman. It's kinda chunky and plain-looking for something that costs as much as a car.

She may not actually have tweeted that, but it is very much a real JK Rowling tweet.

It's literally a result of a bunch of dirt poor Irish immigrants living next to a bunch of dirt poor Jewish immigrants in the Lower East Side. The Irish would buy it from Kosher butchers when they wanted to splurge on a bunch of meat for special holidays so it got associated with St Patrick's Day and Irish identity in the US, even though actual people in Ireland have no idea wtf the deal with corned beef is. Edit: also because kosher butchers obviously didn't sell bacon. mrmcd has issued a correction as of 16:43 on Jan 27, 2020 |

if that’s the case then the US depiction of Irish people is just Conan O’Brian, the Lucky Charms leprechaun, and college students blacking out on St. Patty’s day

Spuckuk posted:Imagine a more bland version of British food and you're there. Surprisingly poo poo potatoes. Light and floury spuds are superior to dense soapy spuds. This is a distinction I don't expect anyone outside of Ireland to understand. Off-season spuds tend to become a bit less fluffy, but then you stick 'em in a stew with a load of garden veg, spices, and lamb to make a hearty Irish stew. Also we're a damp little island where grass grows continuously for 10 months of the year and we produce 8x more grass-fed beef and lamb than we can consume. On top of that we're surrounded by some of the richest fishing waters in the world, and nowhere is more than an hour's drive from the coast, so you can pop in to almost any restaurant or gastro-pub and be guaranteed to have a seafood option on the menu that was caught the same day. I've lived most of my 40 years in Ireland and I've never heard of anyone boiling bacon. This is literally the first time "boiled bacon" has entered my consciousness. Did you grow up in a weird Catholic institution that might someday lead to you writing a novel about the horrible abuse you endured? prefect posted:Do they eat corned beef and cabbage there? That's good food. As an Irish corned beef has always been an English food in my mind. I used to holiday sometimes in England with relatives and corned beef was one of the things that was alien to me, but they used it in sandwiches and other things. I just assumed it was something English people really liked, but I thought it was weird and salty and gross.

as a born and raised American, honestly corn sucks and is so far removed from what it used to be that most people literally can’t even digest it anymore. corn destroyed our economy and made us a nation of diabetic morons and it’s honestly probably payback for all the stuff we did to the natives

there is no corn in corned beef, the name refers to how they salt dry it

BBC News - Watchdog queries impact of £46m 'Get Ready for Brexit' campaign Ahh, well, let's do some tutting at the new government. Right on time to have zero impact on anything to do with the election that was over a month ago. And just to be clear how important it is, the total allowed maximum spend on the election per party, according to the election spending rules, is less than £20m. But I'm sure the extra £50m totally-nonpolitical "get ready for brexit" campaign had no impact. Private Speech has issued a correction as of 07:35 on Jan 28, 2020 |
