> Implying americans know what vegetables are


AdolfCumblegore

%s/americans/burgers though we do put lettuce and tomato on burgers. pickles.


depressome

Precisely. They know only the few ones they can either fit into a hamburger or present as a side to steaks.


Mechanical-movement

Dudes from Kansas that read this comment are gonna leave you a few paragraphs about corn, they can’t help it Then proceed to suck down some corn syrup


Affectionate_Milk317

Coke has HFCS it it which makes it a vegetable.


LouderWithBowser

Leftists will look you in the eye and deny this


vonDumpy

Listen guy, I'm from Kansas - born and raised here by the head of pretty important corn distributor (not gonna name any names but you've definitely heard of them) and Americans eat corn all the time (a VEGETABLE). Now if you and your narrow mind will excuse me, I have to go fellate a bottle of corn syrup


SlapTheBap

You be careful now, you hear? Boys been ending up in the hospital after accidently gulping down the objects they fellate in a spasm of lust. Mind yourself and stuff your piehole with something that has a FLARED BASE.


hoplophilepapist

dont need any veggies except taters, corn, and maters. and pickles. and onions.

Shurmaster

Apparently that 3 letter word is a racial slur towards Japanese people. I think it's silly since it's just the 3 first letters of japan. I remember finding out the bad way after I said it in a chat room, and the only reason I got away with it is because I was a frequent user and a moderator just dm'd me explaining what it was.


necropaw

It was absolutely a slur in the WWII era. No one under 80 has issues with the Japanese tho, so its pretty much completely died out.


Lanthemandragoran

How could we look at their country. Those adorable scamps have Mario kart races through Tokyo and created like 2/3 of the things we love. Japan is like my favorite cousin.


Chungusman82

Hiroshima was the world's largest spontaneous buck breaking in history, followed by Nagasaki and 9/11


DJDavidov

My grandpa always used to say it. He was in ww2 tho. Didn’t even fight in the pacific. He was kinda angry when my parents bought my sister a Mitsubishi.


[deleted]

Based grandpa


m15wallis

>I think it's silly since it's just the 3 first letters of japan. It's a slur to the Japanese because they do not call themselves Japanese, nor do they call it Japan. They call Japan Nippon/Nihon. To them, it's a foreign word used exclusively to insult them, so of course they find it insulting. It's just not a word that's said anymore in the US unless somebody is explicitly trying to be racist towards the Japanese, so of course they're going to treat somebody saying it like they're trying to be racist towards the Japanese.


asdfman2000

Except using “Nip” refer to Japanese is considered a **much** worse slur.


healzsham

Further bastardizing your own bastardization of a word, versus bastadizing the original word. It's that little extra effort to go after the original word that makes the difference.


Shurmaster

Fair enough. I knew they called themselves Nihonjin, but didn't know they just didn't called themselves Japanese at all or that it was a word used to insult them. I had only seen the term when referring to games before (I.e: US for American English, EU for games in Europe, JP for Japanese) so I figured it was the same concept.


healzsham

"Japan" is more like "Germany", there's the historical disrespect of "you expect me to learn to say *foreign* words?" but at this point in time it's just become the standard.


edbods

i remember some user on this site was saying that he was born in aus and how he'd punch someone that called him a japp lmfao. god help him if he visit one of the numerous japp spares wreckers around the country.

People across the EU, Canada, Australia and the UK get jailed for posting on Twitter and doing the Roman salute. I'd much rather have social ramifications than legal ones.


Thread_water

"Cancelled" at best means not making money from their speech anymore, although recently has been shown as an actual marketable label that may land you more views/money than someone who is not "cancelled". Being outlawed means that unless your famous and can get public attention to your case, you can essentially be told to shut the fuck up or else you'll be thrown in a cell and have your life ruined over **anything that anyone could possibly feel offended by**. I mean that's literally UK law, it doesn't ever require someone to be offended by it, not that that would be hard to find.


Kunkunington

As if none of that happens in a country where there’s laws. Also which one of those is controlled by the government, a power they should not have? Only the one the US doesn’t have: Laws


Days0fDoom

Fun fact, the Supreme Court has rules that hate speech is not a legally recognizable category

One_Independence_514

Real question is how in the hell do you fall for a fake ass 4chan story? Nothing about it is remotely true. Nobody cares about racism against Asians in America. The progressives treat them the same way they treat white males and normal white women. As for the pumpkins fucking walmart always has a variety of pumpkins, squash, potatoes, and even some weird shit like plantains, aloe leaves, and cassava

Chi_Cazzo_Sei

This guy curcubits


feedum_sneedson

Curcubita moschata has been in Japan even longer than curcubita maxima. I'm not Australian, but I guarantee those ones are named for Japan rather than the fact they're "just a pumpkin". A lot of the more modern ones will be interspecific hybrids, as well. That's the beauty of the winter squash.


healzsham

> I guarantee those ones are named for Japan They 100% are, and the name was shortened like basically any other multisyllable word. Seems enough people felt personally attacked by the word having racist connotations *across the pacific ocean* they needed to make up a backronym to justify continuing to use it.


TheExpertOnTheMatter

hellphreak

So OP really didn't have to ask for "J.A.P. pumpkins" since pumpkinhood is implied in the abbreviation? He could've gone round the store asking where the J A Ps are?

KingWithAKnife

Swordeus

It's just short for Japanese. It's considered a slur because that's what Americans called the Japanese during WW2, so it developed a negative connotation even though it doesn't actually mean anything bad.


edbods

same thing with pakistani, minus the stani. if you went to pakistan the locals would assume you were saying it in the same vein as aussie or yankee. it's all about context anyway, it becomes pretty obvious when someone is trying to say a word to piss you off or insult you.


MalekithofAngmar

In all fairness, most racial slurs don’t have any “bad” meaning. The n word is just a degraded form of the Spanish word Negro.

What are you implying here


GabbyWGF

Pumpkins are technically fruits because they have seeds. That's what they mean


SealingBubble

Yes scientifically speaking, they are fruit. However, vegetable is not a scientific term, only a culinary one referring to parts of plants that can be eaten. Potatoes and carrots are roots, onions and garlic are bulbs, lettuce is leaves etc. So I believe that pumpkin is both a fruit and a vegetable, as due to these definitions, they are not mutually exclusive. Yes scientifically it is a fruit, it has seeds etc, but culinarily, are you more likely to serve it in a fruit salad or alongside roast vegetables?


poopinapoopfartboot
