Mac is just a synonym for "good European food Amerikanized into cheap junk with chemicals."

Imagine! Why would one eat "Mac" when you can have pasta with sauce Mornay?

[-] brisk@aussie.zone 2 points 2 hours ago

How is mac and cheese not pasta with mornay sauce?

Also, keep in mind that the plural is macaronis and cheese

[-] Threeme2189@lemmy.world 3 points 3 hours ago

No no, you've got it all backwards! The singular is macaron or macaronus. The plural is macaroni, like viri.

Next time you order Mac and cheese, say it right 😉

[-] jpeps@lemmy.world 1 points 21 minutes ago

What about multiple servings of macaroni and cheese??

[-] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 1 points 5 minutes ago

Yes please.

Trying to remember my PIN number at the ATM machine so I can buy some SCUBA apparatus.

[-] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 2 points 7 hours ago

I bet that's also a correct order, they just double the cheese.

The more cheese, the better.

[-] Draegur@lemmy.zip 49 points 15 hours ago

Mac is not an acronym.

It is only an abbreviation of macaroni.

Mac and Cheese would be redundant if it were an acronym.

[-] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 23 points 14 hours ago

Yeah, nobody would say the words of an acronym, like PIN number or ATM machine!

(you are correct)

[-] Draegur@lemmy.zip 4 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago)

Same feeling with "VIN Number" ._.

Thank you for acknowledging my (fairly manageable) pain

[-] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 8 points 14 hours ago

There’s ATMs and there are ATM machines and you don’t want to get the two mixed up

[-] Draegur@lemmy.zip 4 points 8 hours ago

Oh yeah the Access To Money machines that you see at sketchy convenience stores and whatnot usually have bizarrely high fees

Whereas Automated Teller Machines operated by established financial institutions are a little more trustworthy and reasonable

(I'm only a little bit joking)

I'll wake you up when you're hungry, I gotchu bro!

[-] Mac@mander.xyz 4 points 11 hours ago

Don't worry everyone, the experts are here.

[-] Zachariah@lemmy.world 7 points 14 hours ago

Yay, recursive acronym!

Like GNU’s Not Unix!

Wine is no emulator

Time to start a social media controversy where we argue about whether it's mac. or m.a.c.. It'll be lemmy's written version of the gif controversy. ~~I'll make a masto poll when I get home.~~ done.

[-] Zachariah@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago
