You will never have dental care. You have no floss, you have no toothpaste, you have no mouthwash. You are an unhygenic man twisted by tea and crumpets into a crude mockery of nature’s perfection.
All the “tally-ho’s” you get are two-faced and half-hearted. Behind your back people mock you. Your lads are disgusted and ashamed of you, your “mates” laugh at your ghoulish smile behind closed doors.
Dentists are utterly repulsed by you. Thousands of years of medical science have allowed doctors to clean teeth with incredible efficiency. Even Englishmen who “brush their teeth” look uncanny and unnatural to a dentist. Your rotting gums are a dead giveaway. And even if you manage to make an appointment with a dentist, he’ll turn tail and bolt the second he gets a whiff of your diseased, infected maw.
You will never be able to chew solid food. You wrench out a few meager strokes of the toothbrush at the top of the morning and tell yourself it’s going to be ok, but deep inside you feel the halitosis creeping up like a weed, ready to crush you under the unbearable weight.
Eventually it’ll be too much to bear - you’ll buy a rope, tie a noose, put it around your neck, buy a suicide license, and plunge into the cold abyss. Your queen will find you, heartbroken but relieved that she no longer has to live with the unbearable stench. They’ll bury you without your dentures, and every passerby for the rest of eternity will know an Englishman is buried there. Your remaining teeth will decay and go back to the dust, and all that will remain of your toiletries is a toothbrush that was never opened.

"ploughman's lunch" aka sliced bread and whatever spreads and raw vegetables I have in my fridge is what you eat when you're depressed, tired, angry or all of the above. It absolutely does not replace an actual cooked meal and will quickly lead to overeating. Someone explain why the Brits see something that's by all accounts student poverty food that every western culture has, but hides in shame, as some sort of culinary achievement?
>bubuh muh traditional hearty no-nonsense bland slop
Your traditions are shit. Believe it or not Bonglandia is not the only country with a tradition of working class peasant foods. Over here a ploughman's lunch is boiled potatoes and green beans dressed with crackling and sour cream. Beats literal bread, butter and raw onions any day.

The metric system has no soul. Move the decimal, change the prefix, wow its a new number. You can explain it to a child in 10 minutes and is all over. But take a yard, 3 feet, 36 inches, can be split evenly into 2, 3, 4 , 6, 12, 18 parts. Can you split a meter evenly in thirds? Fuck no because I CAN'T MATH UNLESS 10. There's 8 furlongs per mile, why? Because you won't be walking for long (rimshot). The Golden ratio isn't metric, pie isn't metric, and in a pinch you can measure out feet with your actual fucking feet of your wearing shoes (not exact but we're talking soul here). I know an inch is the length of my finger from tip to first knuckle. Horses are so many hands high, why? Because everyone has hands.

The metric system is great for either very very large numbers or very very small numbers. Any actual measuring that a human does daily is far better handled with imperial. A cup is a cup, a teaspoon is a teaspoon. Metric numbers are meaningless to most people unless you have something to compare it too. I've got more but I'm phone posting and getting tired.

I hate this argument so fucking much. The reason metric isn't intuitive to you is because you grew up with imperial. NONE of the imperial measurements are intuitive to me as someone who grew up with metric, unless I have the specific measuring receptacle needed. A cup is not the same as any normal cup I have in my home. Tell me it's 300 ml and I can estimate it.
My argument isn't that metric is more intuitive or less, it's that how intuitive a system is is learned and not inherent to the system.

I also don't like how most baking recipes are volumetric in imperial, but that's a whole other story.

>> No.17946156

>>17946115
You’re approaching imperial from a metric mindset. Imperial was created before calculators really existed (abacii not withstanding), so it’s focused around easy-to-understand fractions that can be calculated mentally. Most everything is built around the concept of splitting things in half. ½, which splits into ¼, which splits into ⅛, which splits into one-sixteenth; into one-thirtysecondth; into one-sixtyfourth, and so on. By doing this, even a completely illiterate person can do very complex mathematics just by working with their hands.

For the record, this is also why older european currencies (including the British Pound until 1971) were comprised of 240 pence rather than 100, and it’s why the original meaning of the word ‘hundred’ referred to 120 rather than 100.

>> No.17946168

Most drinking cups are within an ounce or two of an official ‘cup’. The unit is called a cup specifically because it is roughly the average size of an ordinary drinking cup. Even if your own personal cup in your cupboard isn’t exactly ‘one cup’, you can still use it because what matters in cooking is ratios rather than mass. So long as you only use that one cup during preparation.

Sure, if you were measuring dry ingredients by ML. Most metric users autistically measure dry ingredients by mass instead, which makes it a lot more difficult to adjust the recipe and keep the ratios correct.

Canada does too. If anything, Canada is closer to the US in terms of measurement preference than to the UK or any truly metric country. Canada ‘officially’ uses metric, but in real world terms that just means roadsigns and government paperwork are in metric. In actual life, nobody really uses it. Weights are in pounds, distances shorter than a kilometre are usually in feet or yards. ALL construction is in feet and inches. Buying food at a store is almost always in pounds or ounces. It’s hard to even find measuring tapes in metric unless you specifically ask for one.

If you want a bigger cup, you drink out of a pint glass. Which, as the name implies, holds a pint of fluid.

They won’t argue in favour of the imperial system specifically. But if you ask them whether base 12/16 or base 10 is better as an actual tool for calculation, most of them will say base 12 or 16. If you asked them to design the most functional counting system they could possibly think of, most of them would settle on either binary (which base 16 is derived from), or base 60 (which base 12 is derived from).

You were implying that they wouldn’t support the imperial system because it would, in their eyes, be ‘inferior’. Although I agree that they wouldn’t support it, I reckon it would be for purely cultural reasons. Scientists and other academic objectivists have a habit of dismissing out-of-hand anything old as automatically being “inferior” to something newer. It’s highly likely they would say the imperial system is bad simply because “it is old and predates modern science, therefore it is worthless”. Nobody is completely unbiased.

It was delicious! We did the pie one more time, but I fucked up the filling and it was dry. Haven't done another Sunday roast, but probably will for WC this winter. I'll do a better job of the parsnip and carrot too - for some reason I was convinced that I wanted to do a honey and English mustard sauce for them and, although the flavors were delicious, the idea wasn't quite as good as just salt and pepper and a longer roasting time.

Sticky toffee pud has become a regular dessert for big gatherings though, it's so easy to make a bunch of them and everyone loves them.

Toad in the hole, if it's made well

Sausages must not be too submerged in the batter, yorkshire pudding must not be too deep. Sausages should be pre-cooked and cut in half across the middle so they can poke upward out of the batter.

Suitable ratio of sausage to yorkshire pudding, a common flaw is over-sausaging the dish.

Also, whilst the Ploughman's can't be called a 'dish', as it is a loosely defined collection of parts, it tends to focus on what the UK does well. Cheese, bread, pickles, local fruit, ale. People that call cheese bland come from countries with bad cheese.
