Good morning, please have a thought you probably never had before.

Isn’t ravioli just a dumpling?
- Just like chili is a stew (which is a very thick soup) and hot dogs (and tacos) are open faced sandwiches and so forth.
  Pretty much all of these memes fall apart if you at all know how to cook. Which is probably why they are so lasting.
  
  The memes are intended to show the absurdity of trying to apply strict classificationss to something as varied as food.
  
  Hot dogs aren't open-faced sandwiches. The bun is split open; the sausage lies within, not atop a sole piece of bread.
  And that's not even addressing the fact that "open-faced sandwich" is an oxymoron. By that logic, a slice of [proper NY] pizza is a sandwich as much as a taco, as they are folded and consumed in the same manner, which is clearly ludicrous.
  
  Angry upvote
- Somehow, I agree to ravioli=dumpling but can’t go as far as saying that pop-tart equals anything in that category
  
  Poptart seems more like a turnover to me.

  Cube rule does it better.
- I was with you most of the way there (shout out to the chip butty), right up until that “pigs in blankets” abomination turned up. What in gods name has happened to them. Where’s the bacon, and why have they got that pastry nonsense on them? It’s behaviour like that this that explains the state of the world these days
- You are free to interpret the nature of rice however you wish.

- This is absolutely beautiful. 🥲 🧑‍🍳 💋
- Yep, steak is a salad.

It's pronounced data.
- No it's pronounced data
  
  Lol ... you're both wrong ... it's data
- Ooh, how about "data" is plural.

Easy. First off:
Pop-tarts are calzones.
More fights:
Greek salad is fruit salad
Paris sucks
Chick-fil-A isn't actually good
- Pop-tarts are calzones.
  This is more accurate than ravioli but its still the wrong kind of dough. Pop-tarts are empanadas.
  Greek salad is fruit salad
  True.
  Paris sucks
  Never been but its not particularly high up on the list of places I want to visit.
  Chick-fil-A isn’t actually good
  It's OK at best. Certainly not worth the line (the one I live near is always packed) or the bigotry they fund.
  
  The chik fil a line moves fast, but isn't worth it.
  They do have the best spicy chicken sandwich, but everything else is on par with other shitty fast food.
- Dude Paris is fucking awful. Trash and pickpockets literally everywhere
  
  Here's a hot take for you... every major city is terrible.
- Man, I don't think I could be bothered to fight about any of those.
  I'd laugh at the pop tarts one (that's a good one), the rest, meh.
  I mean Paris is cool and all, but what a shit show with the insane traffic (like any large city). The food is fantastic though.
  
  Best food I had in Paris was Belgian. Best bar was Irish. Art..sure, OK.
  France in general I really like. Loooove the south. Paris is overrated AF and riding high on reputation from 1870-1943.
- Paris sucks
  Anyone who's been to Paris will probably agree, especially Parisians
  Greek salad is a fruit salad
  Tbh a proper one is just a deconstructed sandwich
  
  To be fair, I love a Greek salad, and make myself one once a week when none else is looking.
  But...a sandwich? How so?
- As a Parisian: Paris is fucking amazing but Parisians suck a lot and well.
  
  Could just be me or just bad luck last time I was there. I really liked Bordeaux, but I also love a port town. Strasbourg, Pézenas, enjoyed them both.
- I have no idea about Paris due to not having any experience.
  The rest are accurate.
- So ok, Chick-fil-A sandwich is pretty good if you don't get the pickle and mayo.
  But everything else is eh, and the sauces are downright disgusting
  
  It's top to bottom mediocre. I will die on this hill.
  Popeye's, Zaxby's, hell even Church's are better.
- I like chick fil a's macaroni but their chicken is too soft for me.
- Doesn't a calzone require the fold in the dough where a ravioli is two "sheets" of cough pinched together? Or am I misremembering sandwich classifications?
  
  The cube rule only cares about starch location.

0.999.. and 1 are equal
- 1 / 3 = 0.333...
  0.333... + 0.333... = 0.666...
  0.666... + 0.333... = 0.999...
  1 = 0.999...
- No fight here
- Number values are mere suggestions that approximate measurements to a very high degree and try to quantify an infinitely variable universe
- both completely factually correct and bullshit

That's ridiculous. The singular of ravioli is raviolo, a singular pop tart couldn't possibly be multiple ravioli.
- Raviolo is a large ravioli

Vegans are right.
- I have an in-law who's a vegan and explained it as "if I consume less there's a tiny bit less cruelty. A tiny bit less demand." I like that. It's not about purity. It's about trying.
  I'm still not vegan. I suppose that doesn't say good things about me.
  
  This might just be non-vegan apologia, but I like to think that recognising the ethical merit in veganism is a step in the right direction, especially if you manage to not feel unhelpful levels of guilt about it (my ex's mom was annoying as hell, because she would cry if she ever thought about the fact that the meat she was eating used to be an animal. She felt so guilty about it that the cognitive dissonance caused her to reflexively avoid growth.)
  I used to be irrationally somewhat anti-vegan, but now I am merely non-vegan. I'm not even vegetarian yet, but I am closer to that than I was a year ago. I'm not there yet, but I'm trying. It makes me uncomfortable to recognise the cognitive dissonance in me when I acknowledge that my current diet is not in line with my personal ethics. However, sitting with that discomfort is one of the ways in which I'm trying.
  Along those same lines, give yourself space to grow. The fact that you recognise being non vegan as not saying good things about you is itself, a little good thing, in my opinion. It's not much, but that self awareness is definitely pointing you in the right direction.
  
  I can see where your in-law's coming from, but to put a finer point on it:
  Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals.
  That's why vegans aren't interested in "cruelty free" animal products. It's not just the fact that there is still a lot of cruelty involved; we're opposed to animal exploitation regardless. Veganism naturally came out of the animal rights movement.
- I agree with Alex O’Connor. Yes, they’re right, but also, fuck that, I don’t care.
  
  It's nice when as a society we decide whose lives matter and whos don't

Sorry it's actually a lasagna.
There are 3 foods. There is soup. There is salad. And then there is lasagna. That's it.
- A vanilla soy latte is a bean soup.
- Where does steak fall into these classifications?
  
  Steak is single layer meat lasagna with no sauce

Pineapple on pizza
- For me, it's not the pineapple, it's that Hawaiian pizza is bad. Pineapple, jalapenos, and pepperoni is a great combo.
  
  I quite like pineapple and feta. Nice sweet and salty combo.
  
  I honestly like 'Hawaiian' pizza, but I've had what you describe here and its damn good as well!
- I like it more than pineapple anywhere else.

Ravioli is a sandwich.
- A sandwich is actually a type of lasagna. Close but no cigar.
- It's an empanada.
- no a sandwich is a variation of pop tart.
- Closer to a crustable

A bowl of cereal is cold soup.

Pour milk first, then cereal.
- That does make me angry and I have no idea why.
- This is so wrong.

Tool is overrated, fight me
- And the angel of the lord came unto me, snatching me up from my place of slumber, and took me on high, and higher still until we moved to the spaces betwixt the air itself. And he brought me into a vast farmland of our own Midwest. And as we descended, cries of impending doom rose from the soil. One thousand, nay, a million voices full of fear. And terror possessed me then. And I begged, "Angel of the Lord, what are these tortured screams?" And the angel said unto me, "These are the cries of the carrots. The cries of the carrots. You see, Reverend Maynard, tomorrow is harvest day and to them it is the holocaust". And I sprang from my slumber drenched in sweat like the tears of one million terrified brothers and roared, "Hear me now, I have seen the light! They have a consciousness, they have a life, they have a soul! Damn you! Let the rabbits wear glasses! Save our brothers!" Can I get an amen? Can I get a hallelujah? Thank you, Jesus

or better yet "a raviolo is a pop tart"
- Ravioli are mini pop tarts!
- Ravioli is just a tart or pasty made out of pasta. Like so many people, they invert the origin.
  No, I didn't do any research to back up that assertion. Why would you ask?

A hotdog is not a sandwich

Singular of ravioli is raviolus.
- raviolus
  Oh yeah, I'm pretty sure all first year students learn that one at Hogwarts.
- Raviolo

That is six words.

Pineapple banana pizza.
- Kiwi pizza
- Reminds me of that "Doug" episode.
  
  But it's seriously sweet savory tasty with Mascarpone and a mild grated cheese.

I'm perfectly willing to accept pop tarts as ravioli, and both as dumplings, as long as we acknowledge that both are pies.
However, if we're going to distinguish them, it probably has to come down to whether there's fat in the dough.
- I'm going with pop tarts do not have enough fat in the dough, haha
- Dumplings are certainly not pies.

If a pop-tart is a ravioli, have you tried drowning it in tomato sauce and gratinee it with mozarella?
- if by tomato sauce you mean frosting or nutella or jam, and by mozzarella you mean chocolate shavings or bits of sweet fruit or powdered sugar....
  yes.

AI is a great invention
- Agree, AI will be a human's greatest invention if we use them at the correct places. LLM IS NOT AN AI
  
  Fucking seriously this!
  Nothing is ai yet.
  What we have is very resource intensive machine learning. When I first heard about machine learning it was because it created an equation that solved the double pendulum experiment. But it's kinda useless to us cause we don't understand how the equation works. I thought we were going to get high level protein folding figurer outers. But instead we got :: checks my notes:: a charging that can't even pass the Turing test...
  We don't deserve the magic of electricity.

…which is a sandwich.
- It's technically a calzone. Sandwiches aren't closed on the sides.
  
  What about Uncrustables (also raviolis, btw. obviously)
  
  Surely a it's pasty. A pastry pasty.
  
  Uncrustables are. And a calzone is most definitely a sandwich!

Spaghetti carbonara with heavy cream.
- Not sure why tasty is cheating, but cool.
  
  It’s not about taste, it’s about the culture around Italian food. For some reason, Italian food lovers are extremely aggressive about protecting their favourite cuisine from “inauthentic” recipes.

Who can define what a ravioli is, is a complex sociological and political topic. The statement is only funny because it bulldozes tradition in the name of absurdism. And there's probably some point about capitalism somewhere in there.
So this involves politics.
