A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
Edit: It will never cease to make me laugh that I get more genuinely serious discussion comments on my meme posts in /c/Memes than anywhere else. I'm not hating, I love it.
Edit 2: Chicago-Style deep dish pizza isn't pizza go fuck yourself
Wider means you get more of the same, taller means you can get more ingredients. If I order a burger with all the fixings, I'd rather a tall burger than lettuce to one side and onion to the other.
It's not a comparison of size, it's just the formatting of the sandwich to fit better with the way the human jaw is made... What a dumb argument
Burgers should neither be taller nor wider. Just give me two normal sized burgers.
As a sophisticated man of discriminating taste and impeccable manners, I eat these crazy tall burgers with a knife and fork. Just kidding, I use a knife and fork because they are too tall for my mouth and too messy for my beard.
A beard is for enjoying leftovers later. Get with the program, beardo.
I think wider is better so you don't have to unhinge your jaw like a snake to eat it.
I get bigger burgers not for more food but for more satisfying bites. A tall stacked smash burger or a juicy pink tall burger are way more satisfying to bite into
You could also just have 2 regular sized ones or stop being such a fat ass.
The A&W thing is more about Americans sucking ass at math than the difference between a wider or taller burger.
They had a 1/3lb burger and dipshits thought the 1/4lb was bigger because they don't understand fractions.
A 1/2 lb is bigger than 1/3 lb; what are you on? Did you mis-state something?
They said 1/3 > 1/4, you misread the comment
1/4lb'er*
Royale with cheese
Yeah but A&W tried numbers. A purely vibes based experiment with burger width vs height may prove differently.
Heuristics are real things deserving of both respect and fear.
This is a dumb response. Wider is easier to fit in your mouth and doesnt fall apart. Taller is just a mess and challenge to eat
TLDR: it's not a volume issue, its a distribution
That is the point of the meme.
It's a reference to the third-pound burger, and how consumers thought 1/3 was less than 1/4.
Exactly. Where I used to work there was a greasy cafe type place around the corner and the baps got wider the more stuff you ordered. If you ordered the Full Monty the burger bap was wider than my head. MY HEAD.
You're damn right I would order it every time I went in. It was glorious...and very unhealthy, but also glorious.
Thanks to pizza, even Americans are familiar with the concept of wide
But how many people know that a pizza x times wider is x² times more pizza?
Except in Chicago, cause you know.... Deep dish.
