How the fuck have you gone your whole life never hearing the word 'quiche'? How old are you? I actually can't believe that this was a real event unless you're like 15.

I have a 44 year old friend who had literally never even heard of quiche. I had to explain to him what it was and he still looked at me like I was a raving lunatic after I explained how "hippy egg pie" as he put it, was made.

For what it's worth I called it "queesh" until my fiance corrected me.
Obviously I've heard it pronounced correctly, but never made the connection between the written and spoken.

My friend's dad used to call it "quickie." We still laugh about it.

Don't feel bad man, there was a guy on /mu/ who thought that shoegaze was pronounced shugazi, like the band Fugazi. Legends are made out of vulnerable man

There's a lot of BASIC knowledge out there, I'm sure virtually everyone is missing at least one detail.

When I was 18 people made fun of me for pronouncing "finite" wrong. I thought it was going to be the same as "infinite."

It is, but not in English

Not really related but whenever we make quiche my brother and I say, "It is the food of blrllrlgbbrb! THE PARTY IS CURSED!" Like Rolf. Always gets a chuckle out of us.

What ethnicity was Rolf supposed to be? His accent doesn't sound like anything European, he has a darker skin and a German name?
