How to order a hamburger that's mostly spit

[-] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 17 points 3 weeks ago

As if they aren't already.

Jeepers, your idea of your average hospitality worker is pretty dark

[-] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I was implying that the meat® is from all of the animal... Also, I spent over two decades in the food industry (US, EU, etc.). Ask me for stories — if you don't ever want to eat at any restaurants ever again.

[-] Lodespawn@aussie.zone 18 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah but lips and anuses aren't spit, I think OP was implying that if you attempted what is listed about the kitchen staff are going to make sure the contents of their sinuses form the main protein of your burger.

Unrealistic. This is way too coherent. Needs more word salad.

McDonalds marketing is getting pretty aggressive if they're sending their cashiers to Wendy's...

This is only missing JP coming up with a completely deranged definition of what fries are that he demands the cashier adheres to (I don't think the vodka applies, that's more making fun of the cashier). And also him entirely dodging the question of whether he likes fries, stating that people have discussed whether he likes fries but he refuses to reveal it.

[-] hsr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Obviously fries represent the western civilization. Frying oil is the chaos dragon of woke left that means to destroy the fries, but will instead transform them into something even more beautiful, an entity of culinary perfection. But you would already know that if only you had bought my online course. sob It's so sublime. sob

Gets plain fries, but gets charged for vodka. Cashier points to vodka line on the bill and says "potatoes", then points to fries and says "potatoes".

False inductive reasoning combined with butwhataboutism and sealinoning. All designed to exhaust the opponent and muddy the argument. Conservatives love this form of argument.

Sealioning (source) + whataboutism. A very cheap method of trolling and exhausting the opponent of the argument which relies on the victim being unaware of sealioning and they're being sealioned. It's frustrating seeing JP fans think this is proof he's a genius. it's like Ben Shapiro, another rightwing "influencer" who constantly speaks fast and gish gallops on purpose and his fans think he's a genius for that too

[-] humorlessrepost@lemmy.world 10 points 3 weeks ago

Don’t forget the constant motte and bailey.

[-] frenchfryenjoyer@lemmings.world 23 points 3 weeks ago

That, too. For people who don't know what that is (source)

The motte-and-bailey fallacy (named after the motte-and-bailey castle) is a form of argument and an informal fallacy where an arguer conflates two positions that share similarities: one modest and easy to defend (the "motte") and one much more controversial and harder to defend (the "bailey").[1] The arguer advances the controversial position, but when challenged, insists that only the more modest position is being advanced.[2][3] Upon retreating to the motte, the arguer may claim that the bailey has not been refuted (because the critic refused to attack the motte)[1] or that the critic is unreasonable (by equating an attack on the bailey with an attack on the motte).[4]

It depends on what the definition of 'is' is.

Currently watching a Peterson debate... This is just too perfect.

[-] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 23 points 3 weeks ago

My dog is an intellectual powerhouse compared to Jordan Peterson fans.

Lol. I just Googled him and his YouTube channel description reads...

"Join intellectual phenomenon Dr. Jordan B. Peterson for enlightening discourse"

[-] forrgott@lemmy.sdf.org 11 points 3 weeks ago

It's a phenomenon how much he lacks any intellectual capabilities.

Stupid People glom onto him like he's a genius. I guess he kinda is a genius compared to the average Trump voter.

My father tried to tell me what a "genius" he is. I told my father point blank, Jordan Peterson is only a genius to morons. He even gave me one of Peterson's self help books, I immediately tossed it in the trash. Though, in retrospect, I probably should have tried to return it to Amazon and used the money to buy something more worthy of reading, like Chick Tracts. 😂 At least they're entertaining.

So, I haven't heard much about JP in a while,and now I've heard a podcast and this. Is it just coincidence or is there a reason we're talking about him again? The podcast mentioned he'd gone on some show debating Christianity with 20 atheists. It went as you might imagine, where jp argued that atheists were Christian because they didn't understand the thing they say they don't believe in. Idk. Anyway -- any other reason I'm hearing about him again?

[-] Robust_Mirror@aussie.zone 19 points 3 weeks ago

It's mostly just that. The whole thing was a mess. The atheists were told they would be debating a Christian and prepared as such, but he won't define himself as a Christian. So much time is wasted dancing around that. They had to change the title from Christian debates to Jordan Peterson debates. On top of that he will barely engage properly, saying things like he won't entertain a hypothetical because he wouldn't allow himself to get in that situation in the first place. Just generally not acting in good faith.

There is a great impression of him talking about Burger King that I have to share. He's doing this same kind of stupidity in this video. https://youtu.be/-BDgQMGs7Mc

Some person was showing me videos of him and telling me he was very smart, does anyone happen to know some good examples to get him to reconsider?

[-] Honytawk@feddit.nl 12 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Ask about his Benzo addiction that literally gave him brain damage. Which was what all his doctors predicted would happen.

I genuinely can't think of a better example of a modern day sophist than Jordan Peterson.

Vodka with my Big Mac

I've had that quite a few times. Doesn't really go together but rather they go sequentially. First you drink vodka then later on you want greasy shit
