dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

We know, we're all jealous chomsky-yes-honey

Too bad my only marketable skill is i can cook pretty adequately. American food has such a shit reputation i feel like even if I were declared Best Chef in Country (when i'm not even the best chef on this site) China still wouldn't want me bawllin-sad

I can cook all kinds of other cuisine... but it'll all be americanized ooooooooooooooh

I guarantee you that there's a booming business in China for burgers because the USA is still romanticized by the previous decades of soft power propaganda, and also there's a fuckton of American immigrants, travelling workers, and so forth

I'd shoot myself if I had to just cook burgers though. That's one of the worst menus at my job lol I'm so glad I don't have to do it anymore running the vegan station. Grilling the burgers themselves isn't so bad but they insist we serve a tray of plain burgers AND a tray of pre-cheesed, partially melted cheese burgers, and that's a pain in the fucking ASS
