Caesar Salad is from the 1920's. A restauranteur and Italian immigrant named Caesar Cardini served it in Tijuana, Mexico.

It had nothing to do with ancient Romans. Bad meme, do your homework next time.

I’m going to keep making ‘incorrect Caesar’ memes for your pleasure.

[-] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

Oh okay, as long as it's truthy enough. This one wasn't.

[-] Tristaniopsis@aussie.zone 5 points 2 years ago

I can’t claim credit for this one, which is brilliant BTW.

[-] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Brilliant? Whew that's a low bar you've set for that word.

[-] Tristaniopsis@aussie.zone 3 points 2 years ago

Well ok. But you don’t like it so no matter what positive adjectives I use you’ll object.

[-] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Huh? I'm not categorically opposed to memes. I just have opinions sometimes. There are plenty of others I like 🤷‍♂️

[-] Tristaniopsis@aussie.zone 2 points 2 years ago

How DARE you have opinions!!!!

His rival across town was named Brutus.

[-] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

He sounds dangerous, or at least if you're an emperor.

A Brutus Salad you say? Intriguing...

[-] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

The dichotomy of meme and reality is best characterised as "comedy". It's a joke, my dude.

[-] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Some jokes are weak AF and fall flat, my dude.

[-] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Hundreds of people seem to have enjoyed it.

Are you out of touch? No, it's everyone else who is wrong.

[-] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

I feel like you know Ad Populum is a fallacy and now you're just responding in bad faith.

[-] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Ad Populum is not a fallacy when talking about subjective things like comedy. This is not a formal debate.

[-] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Eh, ok agreed. Sorry, I got really bad sleep the last couple days so my sense of humor was pretty much dead. I'm doing better now. I'm not usually that much of a stiff.

I shouldn't have even commented. When you've already been awake for most of a 48+ hour period you don't always make the best decisions...

[-] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Completely understandable! Glad to hear you're doing better :)

How many ages hence
Shall this our lofty scene be acted over
In states unborn and accents yet unknown!

[-] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Yea tru, thank u Shakespeare

[-] rhandyrhoads@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I'm sure that with him being an Italian immigrant, the name Caesar has NOTHING to do with ancient Rome. Absolutely zero link there.
