The cockroach chick in X-Files needs to get with the eco terrorist dude and have a threesome with me

Deleting twitter off my phone for at least a minute. I already know how horrible the world and everyone in it is.

[Potato Stan @Spinyintrovert]

I made a grave mistake logging back on at this hour I am going to have a fuckin aneurysm

[Potato Stan @Spinyintrovert]

@grapufruito @h4rucha @MonospIaylist Yea. Maybe take it up with the 80 year old Vietnamese lady that’s been running it for decades idk dude.

[Potato Stan @Spinyintrovert]

@grapufruito @h4rucha @MonospIaylist If they googled it it would tell them it’s a Vietnamese sandwich, correct? That is LITERALLY what the menu is telling them, we just call sandwiches hoagies.

[Potato Stan @Spinyintrovert]

@grapufruito @h4rucha @MonospIaylist Yea, it’s in Chinatown in philly owned and operated by Vietnamese people. I promise people that go know that other cultures exist. It’s also a really affordable lunch option. Not everyone that goes there has a smart phone to “simply google it” like, that is so incredibly ignorant

[Potato Stan @Spinyintrovert]

@grapufruito @h4rucha @MonospIaylist “Hoagie” isn’t a made up name either. You might now have heard it, but it’s just what we call “subs”, or any sandwiches on long rolls, in philly.

[Potato Stan @Spinyintrovert]

@grapufruito @h4rucha @MonospIaylist How do you expect people to learn what a banh mi is if they don’t know? It’s not ‘making up a name’. The menus say banh mi. They are just also including a description of what a banh mi is to people who don’t know already. That’s how you learn what a food is called.

@MonospIaylist banh mi cali rules. the woman who runs it is like 84 years old. philly has a big vietnamese population and you'll see lots of banh mi shops that use the word "hoagie" and some also serve american-style deli stuff

[Potato Stan @Spinyintrovert]

Love to shit on a Vietnamese owned restaurant in philly Chinatown for including an English description of their menu items. PleAse god use your noggins when you do critiques.

[Potato Stan @Spinyintrovert]

bullshit to include banh mi Cali on this list imo. It’s the only one using the correct name, and it’s the primary name- it just has an English descriptor for English speaking potential customers which is extremely NOT the same as calling roti canai an “Asian flat croissant”

[Potato Stan @Spinyintrovert]

Also all the others are wildly misleading, but banh mi IS a hoagie. Trying to “explain” tteokbokki as “Korean spicy rice gnocchi” is like 8 levels of weird mental gymnastics.

[Potato Stan @Spinyintrovert]

@chris_fortunato RIGHT?! The comments are like “no one even knows what a hoagie is” and I’m like... maybe this restaurant is advertising to the fucking community it’s based in and not just “catering to white people”

[Potato Stan @Spinyintrovert]

@tigertomxmen498 @MonospIaylist It’s a Vietnamese restaurant in philly. We call sandwiches on long rolls “hoagies” here, so this is a way for the restaurant to advertise what they sell to Philadelphians that don’t know what a banh mi is yet. The place rules and it shouldn’t be on this list.

[Potato Stan @Spinyintrovert]

@grapufruito @MonospIaylist Well you don’t live in philly then, and that’s where this restaurant is.

[Potato Stan @Spinyintrovert]

@MonospIaylist @paopubts It’s a Vietnamese owned place in philly.

[Potato Stan @Spinyintrovert]

@chucklebutt666 They keep saying “soft tomatoes”

[Potato Stan @Spinyintrovert]

Looking up good/cheap bread knives and every list judges them based on if they can cut bread AND TOMATOES??? I get some people use serrated knives to cut tomatoes but whyyy would you use a 10 INCH BREAD KNIFE for that and WHY would that be a factor on its quality as a BREAD KNIFE

[Potato Stan @Spinyintrovert]

Hope this helps the person that said My comment was “shaming” people who use jarred garlic for accessibility purposes.

[Potato Stan @Spinyintrovert]

“People that use jarred garlic are lazy”=ableist bullshit judging someone’s character on their food choices

“Jarred garlic is mostly inferior to fresh, heres some tools that make processing fresh garlic easier”= no judgement on anyone, nor suggests those tools can help everyone

[Potato Stan @Spinyintrovert]

@LenyHRWagner @solodeauxleaux Of course all of that is true. But it’s a stretch to say I’m shaming people by saying that most jarred garlic is lower quality than fresh. Maybe you’re responding to a general cultural attitude, but no where in my comment did I say people shouldn’t eat the food they can access.
