And here I wish they cut them in half. A half turkey is a much better size for 4 or fewer people.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Just buy a chicken. Tastes better anyway.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Turkey can feed more people, cheaper, and I make so many chickens I could use a change

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You just said a whole turkey is too much

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And why I want a half turkey. C'mon this isn't hard.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You specifically said you like turkey because it feeds more people, yet a whole turkey is apparently too big and you want half of one. Make up your mind man.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Wow, still going? If you really need it:

HALF Turkey can feed more people, cheaper, and I make so many chickens I could use a change.

Seriously this isn't hard.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

A half turkey isn't going to feed more people than a reasonably large chicken. They aren't that big lmao. Cheaper maybe, but turkey isn't as nice as chicken to begin with. I get wanting a change though. Also if you raise chickens then surely that's the cheapest option?

Honestly though if you want half a turkey just save the other half for later. Make a curry or something, idk.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yeah something told me that you coming back a week later means you wouldn't be able to let it go when you finally realized you can't follow the conversation. Ciao.

lol at him downvoting.

I misread your sentence about “change” and I started to think of how various sizes of poultry could be used as monetary currency. Like:

It’ll cost you 2 turkeys.

You got change for 3 chickens?

Here’s a Cornish hen in change. Good luck with your pack of Yu-Gi-Oh cards.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I found that the meat to fat/bone ratio on Turkey was worse than Chicken. Always have so much waste when preparing Turkey the money just didn't make it worth it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

They do at least sell the whole turkey breast

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (9 children)

No native English speaker would say "do these get any bigger" rather than "...come any bigger"

So I'm assuming the shopper was a non-native speaker and the shelf stacker was JUST HORRIBLY RACIST OH MY GOD IM SO ANGRY I'M GOING TO WRITE A STRONGLY WORDED LETTER TO SOMEONE

Edit - apparently I forgot that Americans are fucking retarded 😂😂😂

[–] [email protected] 48 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Yes, every native English speaking Walmart shopper are perfectly fluent, masters of the linguistic arts. They are known throughout the Americas to be amongst the classiest and highest educated group of shoppers known to man. Even the ones known to procreate with their sisters are likely to have a degree. Likely, a masters. These are stats and known facts of the highly esteemed shoppers of Walmart

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Really underrated comment.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I take it you haven’t had the opportunity to meet anyone that grew up on the southern USA.

“Get” would be absolutely be colloquial for what you said.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Yeah, I'm honestly shocked he's never met a person who doesn't speak perfect English who was native. I was the electronics guy at walmart and the most common question id get about speakers, and the most common wording was 'do it get loud?'

People talk how they want, simple as that lol.

People don’t think it be like it is, but it do.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 year ago

Weird as shit take.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Then the punchline would have been “no they don’t cum at all, THEY’RE DEAD, you sick pervert.”

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Great... Now I'm coming. Thanks a lot!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Can I interest you in a turkey in these trying cums?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago

As someone whose had the priviledge working both in a call centre & retail for several years... you're wrong.

Most is local colloquialisms, where regions sometimes substitute words or phrases for others.

And then there's the "native English speakers" that are straight up idiots, and butchering the language constantly...

The amount of South Londoners that say "arced" instead of "asked" is too damn high.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

I'm a native speaker and not an American, but I didnt find this weird. I would probably say "do you have any bigger ones" not ask about the turkey cum.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Tell me you've never met an American without telling me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Considering your last sentence, you might be American, check your ancestry.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They sell food thickener at Walmart. I know because I saw it there yesterday.

So they won't get bigger, but they can get thicker.

Not a pleasant thing, but possibly a necessary thing for people with certain health issues. In fact, I may have to end up using it. I hope not, but it is a distinct possibility.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And then everybody clapped

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

If you make up a story, why not at least make it funny?
