Pop tarts are aggressive..?

Regarding the national anthem, you should look up a translation of the French national anthem. And it probably isn't the most metal/aggressive national anthem out there, since it's one of the very few I even know.

Edit: I couldn't help but add this snippet

Grab your weapons, citizens! Form your battalions! Let us march! Let us march! May impure blood Water our fields!

I got into a bar fight with a pop tart once. Super aggressive guy. He knocked a couple of my teeth out and gave me a nose bleed. By the end he had me pinned down, but I managed to break free and throw him into the nearest toaster. Savored that meal.

EDIT: I might have dreamt this.

No I was the toaster. That really hurt. You could have hurt somebody.

I once tasted a real proper tart. Served at the wake of a late boss at a golf club house. English tea times sometimes include simple jam tarts. Both envoke tranquil and enjoyability. All my experiences with the Pop Tart were under rush, duress, haste, a sugar-to-blood delivery system. One can tell easy when we (USA) aggravate the food. Like turning doughnuts into donuts. Or spell cheese with a 'z'.

Cheeze is spelled with a z there because it literally isn’t cheese, it’s a vegan substitute.

That actually makes sense haha

That others are also aggressive doesn't mean we are not.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 1 points 23 hours ago

I didn't say that's what it meant. I just wondered if they would think one was much more aggressive than the other. I do. More than one thing can be true.

This checks out as the French are the second biggest arms dealer in the world.

Pop Tarts are super aggressive. In addition to being made of no natural foodstuffs, they are extremely flammable when in a toaster.

Haha well a lot of people are defining pop tarts as aggressive in different ways. Apparently I'm way too narrow in my interpretation of that word
