I once sat next to a family from our local car dealer commercials in a restaurant and they spent the entire time talking about their recent trip to Paris. The whole conversation was about how the food wasn’t American enough and the cable at the hotel didn’t have their shows. Nothing about sights or culture or experiences.
That’s really frustrating in a way that speaks to my own personal experience. I once went to a sushi restaurant, and their mac 'n cheese was not very good. They didn’t even have ketchup.
The green ketchup tasted funny, and made my nose tingle. They didn’t even bother to cook the fish!
It’s kinda baffling to think someone would want to be reminded of home while on vacation
I don’t know. When I’m forced to go to Paris on my mandatory annual vacation, I keep a framed photo of my boss and coworkers on the nightstand to stare at wistfully while wondering what I’m missing out on. I also have a gaming app called “Sim Accounting” so I can have fun pretending to fill out forms and spreadsheets so I don’t get bored. Looking out of the hotel window, I feel kinda bad for the poor Parisians. They don’t know the pride of having a neatly manicured lawn under the close scrutiny of an HOA or the excitement of maintaining, insuring, registering, and driving a large 8-seat SUV. When I think of all the fun I’ve had navigating traffic on the highway and downtown on the way to the office, I feel a little pang of regret that these French people might never know that joy. I wonder if we did the right thing. Maybe if we had stayed longer in Europe at the end of the war, we could have helped them remodel their cities with proper highways, suburbs, and strip malls. Nonetheless, the past is the past. I’m here for nearly two weeks. At least it will teach me to appreciate home more, if nothing else.
That’s because they didn’t go to Paris to experience Paris. They went to Paris so they could brag to everyone back home that they went to Paris, and then use that to reinforce their superiority complex.
I’m other words, they’re useless assholes.
If you actually want to experience France, you don’t go to Paris
These are the same people that invade inexpensive rural areas and build a bunch of houses and then complain that there isn’t enough to do and not enough government services. Bitch we lived here because it was quiet and inexpensive. Now it’s neither.
Rednecks are the dumbest people on planet earth. Attempted culture of not, you can’t fix it.
My favorite experience in Paris was going around and buying items for a picnic and having it on the lawn in front of the Eiffel Tower at sunset, it was amazing.
Who the hell would ruin pizza with ranch?! GROSS!
Sweet summer child, this is the lesser of the pizza crimes.
THE LESSER?
WHAT CRIMES AGAINST FOOD ARE YOU COMMITTING IN THE COLONIES?
I thought it was sweet corn and tomato pieces, I was pure.
Why?
What sort of deranged person would do something like this?
Just why?
Some people just want to watch the world burn, I guess.
For the meme, probably.
I thought it was sweet corn
A place down the street from me makes an elote pizza; which is Ricotta, a shredded cheese blend, corn and cotija cheese, pickled red onions, cilantro and tajin.
Detroit style pizza is bomb with some ranch but ffs don’t put it on a
legittraditional pizzaTraditional Pizza IS legit pizza.
Ranch on a pizza is fuckin heresy, you monster.
Detroit style pizza is legit pizza. Don’t be mad we can do your thing better than you haha
Seemingly, most of the state of Arizona.
Of course it’s in Amsterdam too
Ah, yes, Amsterdam, the Italy of Northern Europe.
Many of them think that the US invented pizza, so…
You’ve got to get past the whole “if it’s not American (Or rather, what they’re used to…) it shit” as well.
When I was a kid my dad took me skiing to Sauze d’Oulx, there was this “hole in the wall” type place that did slices of rectangular pizza on a piece of card…I’ll never eat pizza, or food in general, that tasted like that ever again.
That is tragic. I get that it’s Northern Italy, but still, how could they fail at pizza?
I should have been clearer….that was the best pizza I’ve ever had.
Oh, well, I’m happy to hear that then. That tracks better with my worldview, too.
Yeah if you travelled “all the way to Europe for pizza” and selected Amsterdam as your destination you’re just a fool haha.
Honestly, I would watch this person’s food travel show.
“We’re heading to Potugal for some authentic pierogis, and next, off to Norway for some traditional burritos.”
That would explain the goddamn fork.
Yeah, they should’ve known to use chopsticks since it’s a foreign country.
That pizza looks dope…
Looks pretty meh to me.
It’s not real, it’s sarcasm.
First of all, I love your username. Tell A-A-Ron and Bahlahkie I say “Hi.” Secondly:
It might well be, but for every sarcastic one I promise there’s 10 that will say this seriously.
If you’re putting Ranch on your pizza then you deserve your suffering.
I wonder if any people regarded putting tomatoes on flatbread in the 1500s the same way. Is this progress, or is it abomination? History will be the judge.
I dreamt about a fictional condiment this night that was used to put stuff on pizza and it tastes a bit like vinegar
Ok hear me out. What about a buttermilk ranch with the greatest thin crust pepperoni cornmeal crust? If that’s suffering I guess Dante I’ll ask Santa which level of hell I belong in ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ …i may have the tastebuds of a child
We good or not?
Did they not offer a deep-dish Pepperoni Lovers option?
Not only did they fail to offer that, but also, the crust was unstuffed.
Must be trolling
Just roll it up like kebab
My mistake. Please carry on.
