I want to meet this person, someone with such strong opinions on food is either the most amusing person to talk to, or an insufferable zealot and I really want to know which this person is.

Someone with that many bumper stickers is always going to be the latter.

[–] BakerBagel@midwest.social 27 points 2 months ago (4 children)

2-3 bumper stickers is ok. Over 12 is an art statement. 3-12 is deranged

[–] xantoxis@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Much to think about here. I count 11 stickers if we treat "GLUTEN (subaru logo) MATTERS" as a single sticker, and each heart as one sticker. Add in the GLUTEN plate, and we're at exactly 12. Really on the border between deranged and artistic.

There's a LARD sticker on the thingy above the roof too. We're good.

I've been pleasantly surprised in the past. I'll hold my judgement

[–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 53 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Really makes it for me, that depending on which stickers you look at, they might be:

  • vegan
  • aggressively anti-vegan
  • pig fucker

This is a truly amazing post. Really inspired writing. Thank you for making me actually lol and forcing my wife to listen to me read it out loud

Used to live near someone whose car was covered in "Meat is Murder - Animal Holocaust" stickers.

I bet the pig butts guy is more pleasant.

Eh, anyone who goes out of their way to shit on other people's dietary preferences is unpleasant in my book.

[–] Neato@ttrpg.network 34 points 2 months ago (7 children)

It's not even like the vast majority people who refrain from gluten just because they don't like it or think it's healthier. It's because they can't tolerate it. This car reads to me like someone ragging on people who have peanut or shellfish allergies.

[–] herrcaptain@lemmy.ca 21 points 2 months ago (2 children)

To give the dude some credit, a while back it was kinda in-style to hate on gluten or think you're intolerant to it, so maybe this is just a reaction to that?

[–] fubo@lemmy.world 19 points 2 months ago

No, he's a gluten for puneshment.

If we were placing bets, I would put money down that his love of pigs is to shit on the Muslim community. I don't have any hard evidence to that effect, but I dunno. I just have a feeling.

anyone who is that passionate about shitting on others will be insufferable tbh

[–] umbrella@lemmy.ml 33 points 2 months ago (4 children)

the amount of stickers, humorous or not, one has in their car is directly proportional to how crazy they are.

[–] sin_free_for_00_days@sopuli.xyz 11 points 2 months ago

A lot of people don't like bumper stickers. I don't mind bumper stickers. To me a bumper sticker is a shortcut. It's like a little sign that says 'Hey, let's never hang out.'

Unless artwork or travel tokens, my general rule of thumb is stickers are like emojis. The more someone uses them, the more insane they are.

Guessing they're estranged from their family of gluten-free health nuts, now they run a pasta/BBQ restaurant and are proud of their new lifestyle. Alternately, a waiter who snapped and couldn't take it anymore.

My guess was going to be millennial English teacher who got fed up with the new cafeteria menus and that all the good lunch spots close by are also hopping on the bandwagon. Because it's themed and meticulously laid out, like a perfectionist English teacher might do.

It's so sad that your identity has become pushing back against people with food allergies because it was, at one point, trendy. They just be a sad, sad person. I hope they find more meaning out of life

Too much of this good thing could give you clogged arteries. I love bacon, but I don't want a bacon sandwich made with deep-fried breaded ham slices in place of bread, & slathered in butter.

Shit. Maybe I do, now that I've written it out.

[–] anarchrist@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 months ago (3 children)

We take 18 ounces of sizzling ground beef and soak it in rich creamery butter. Then we top it off with bacon, ham, and a fried egg. We call it the Good Morning Burger.

You're all just intolerant.

I wonder if the love pig thing is actually anti-muslim. And love gluten is to own the libs.

"The LARD is good" is actually a decent pun.

This is definitely the car of a crazy person, but they've given me a pretext to once again point out that the man who discovered Gluten Sensitivity in 2011 retracted his own findings four years later, and there is probably no such thing as non-celiac gluten sensitivity.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 8 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

I find it funny they specifically are about pigs because just the other day, a vegan community posted a chart of the negative environmental impact various farming industries have, and pigs were the lowest impact when it came to animal farming. It was only slightly higher than farming soy.

Insane. Extremism is never the sign of a sane mind whatever the topic.
