This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Why didn’t this woman just take the can of beans instead of the bread?

[–] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 33 points 1 week ago (9 children)

In my experience society regrettably values bread over beans. I can't talk about it or else I'm gonna start crying.

Beans are sad emergency food.

If I'm in a situation where beans are necessary, I'm awfully desperate and out of options.

Emergency situation: you're in the UK, it's breakfast and you need something to put on your toast.

You're in the UK

The worst kind of emergency.

There's no such thing as a "UK." Oh sure, there's this island full of TERFs next to Europe that does things like eat "beans on toast" and where if you say the word "tiddlywinks" in a court of law you're taken seriously instead of laughed out of the place. Get real, Britain was made up by Scholastic to sell books to third graders.

Uh, hi. So I live in the UK, and it's not as bad as you say. Yes, tiddlywinks-related violence is somewhat out of control here, and Britain was a buzzword made up by J K Rowling (a pseudonym of JRR Martin) to avoid paying taxes, but beans on toast is very real here and is the cause of thousands of breakfast-related deaths a month.

Please be a bit more considerate when poking fun at people you don't even know

I am hurt and am formally rescinding my open invitation to join me for burrito or chilli night for you

I'm Norwegian, I make my own meaty beanless burritos every Friday.

The only good traditional variant is birria. Beanless.
Burritos should be a treat, not a beany staple.

Beans. Birria. Burritos. Battlestar Galactica

Beans can absolutely be a treat if you cook them right. I'm sorry you've never been able to experience tasty beans.
