Texas dies a little everytime some asshole in Ohio puts beans in their chili.

Which actually is something I prefer not to get out.

I put beans in my chili every single time.  I had a revelation a few years ago when I started putting not just red kidney beans, but black beans in my chili - it was so good.

Another traditional food destroyed and my culture slowly being chipped away. WTF Alberta? I thought you were the Texas of Canada

I know you are joking, but one thing that these "culture appropriation" morons fail to understand is that culture is not static and does not develop in a vacuum. It did not just emerge as a Platonic form, ex nihilo - it is a product of centuries of changes, influences, experimenting and cross-polinating with other cultures. Shakespeare, Mozart and Picasso were all "cultural appropriators". Without it you have no development of any kind.

So the ends justify the means? OK monster.

I think his point is there are no ends.

its just another form of being angry for the sake of being angry. People have it too good and too much time on their hands.

No joke;  the number of Koreans saved from starvation by US troops is incalculable.

Looked up Manitoba fish flies. The pictures are like Moses wet dream.

But they don't bite.

Mrs B. was kind of grossed out by them at first.  But they just land on stuff.  They don't actually do anything.  They're harmless.

Damn non-functional Canadian insects.

I kind of get where they are coming from. Outright stealing existing stuff and doing tacky renditions of other people's stuff is obnoxious. But the first is already illegal and the second is just...well...tacky. But because we live in an era of outrage and hyperbole this, perhaps understandable, annoyance with tackiness gets taken to insisting something is some kind of genocidal warcrime outright destroying a culture with the white imperialism. Because nothing can just be innocuous. It checks both my boxes by also being vague as to what exactly it is.

Doesn't it have spaghetti in it? DESTRUCTION OF TWO CULTURES

We annhilated Italian culture, via pizza and Chef Boyardee, long ago.

The family and I rented a cabin at Grand Beach Manitoba last year for summer holidays - holy crap was that just as good a beach as I remember as a kid.

So it was still a terrible 'beach' then?

Well, sure. After all, we are waiting for Polish culture to hit its stride.
