we're legally allowed to kill you for this
And I'm legally allowed to punish you for death threats.

But I'm not.


I'm doing it because you willingly mispronounce "jello".

Kinda off topic but on a Discord I'm on, we have an entire chat for Sister Krone faces.

Because Jell-O as a product has become so synonymous with gelatin desert that people have come to associate all gelatin deserts as Jello.

In the same way that some countries refer to all sodas as "Cokes"
Or people here call bandages "bandaids" or tissues "kleenexes".

Never had jam so jelly.
Man, then you haven't lived.

Get some legitimate jam, made with actual fruit and not just, like, sugar food coloring and a picture of some grapes.

>jell-o takes the 'jell' in its name from 'jelly', yet america still calls smooth, spreadable stuff that we call jam 'jelly' rather than following jell-o's original example or keeping the terms distinct

Wait is jam/jelly different in America? Is this ‘colour’ all over again?
"Jelly" is a sugary impersonation of jam sold in America.



It's more like grape ketchup than jam.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say "jelly" is the name of a Fortnite streamer.
Yup.

I don't even know why this is popping up. I know google search results are based on your history but I have never searched anything Fortnite related. The only reason I can think of is that maybe when I search up VAs who voice in Fortnite, Christina Vee, for example, it assumes I like Fortnite, but that seems a bit too far stretched.

They're hoping to get you to click on the popular thing, not necessarily the thing you're looking for.

The internet seems to think that I like a lot of Youtube personalities because they have vague associations with games I've played, but I never click on any of them. When I search my Youtube Music app for Two-Mix, I get a whole lot of more popular videos with "two" and/or "mix" in the title before it actually shows me the songs I ****ing want to hear.

I miss Zune.

That's what I had figured. Makes them more money, I'd assume.

Edit: Just like how I keep getting DanTDM in my recommendations despite the fact that I haven't seen any of his content or anything similar to it.

It's why smaller channels like yours and mine take so long to start up. You're fighting with every other channel that's more established and using the same keywords you are.

When people start to share you, it snowballs. The algorithm says, "Oh, people care about this," and start directing more and more people to it on an assumption that they're going to want it as well. It took us about two years to get to 1000 subscribers. Then it took us about 9 months to get to 5000.

I knew Two-Mix was familiar! Minami Takayama voices Conan Edogawa in Detective Conan, and Two-Mix appears as a duo in a few episodes.

Hey my friend made a really good track. Y'all should check it out.

I haven't watched many guides on how to get a channel started, but pretty much every single one has said this, and they are absolutely right.

This whole Jelly/Jam thing just gives my flashbacks to figuring out American Recipes.

Ounces I can figure out but what the flip is a Fahrenheit and why is there so much corn in everything?

not to worry, i hear you can find great success if you make your titles ALL CAPS WITH QUESTION MARKS???!! and slap a picture of your face reacting to some out-of-context frame or item into the thumbnail

American culture is the epiphony of commercialised society and it's ****ing horrible!

In the category: **** I didn't know existed;
"Jelly" is a sugary impersonation of jam sold in America.

This makes me uncomfortable.

Since I missed the convo this morning.

Flash is being discontinued for a number of reasons, the most important one is that there are other platforms that exist that don't have the same security issues as Flash. Flash as a platform should've been discontinued several years ago.

I've always thought of ketchup as a sugary impersonation of a chopped tomato. Haven't liked ketchup in a very long time.

I really dislike how toxic the Microsoft character speculation became recently or rather the current Joker to 2nd DLC character speculation period is right now. You have Banjo fans and Steve fans clawing each other's throats out on who should be in instead, and then Erdrick is thrown in there for a Mexican Standoff.

So after much consultation from friends, I decided to skip Devil May Cry 2. One of my friends is upset that I skipped it, but simply because I can’t say I have played them all. I will probably play it at some point but want the experience of enjoying the series.

I can already tell how much better 3 is from 1. I also love Dante as a character now, and Devil May Cry is just so...goofy. It’s hysterical honestly.

I’d be down for Dante in Smash. I just think a different series will get in before him from Capcom.

Is it bad that I want both of them?

So as usual, if i’m not browsing here i’m browsing the ****stain that is /v/ and the occasional Smash thread shows up. It usually devolves into ****posts and talking smack about Banjo, Steve, and Erdrick.

Every single time Erdrick is mentioned on /v/ somebody posts a comment saying , “>Erdrick”, and posts the same sleeping Piranha Plant gif. Every single time. And every single time, I lose my mind and burst out laughing.

What’s the matter with me?
Why are you looking at videogame threads on /v/?

The best threads are the thinly veiled Junji Ito threads, anime threads in general and animal thread.
