Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.
I will introduce more rules later and when I finish doing that I will make an announcement post about that.

Yooooo, one time I was at work, it happened to be that everyone there at the moment was Latino or Black, and we were in a joking mood. So, we started to discuss White people stereotypes. It was nothing offensive, more like just clowning. Anyway, someone said that White people love cheese, and we all lost it. White people put cheese on everything! Mexicans do to tho, so they're not alone.
I had gotten stationed in California when I was 18 years old and saw some White dude in my platoon put cheese on his salad. That was so strange to me that I remember when and where I was when I first saw someone put cheese in a salad. Also, he put black beans in his salad too, and at that point, I was like, "Wtf is he doinggg‽"
Another fun story while I'm at it (not about White stereotypes). Back to the first job mentioned above, there were only 2 White dudes that worked there. One happened to be the boss (let's call him Brad). He was a sassy af gay dude that had been in the Marine Corps and deployed to Iraq, so this guy said whatever the hell he wanted. There was no filter. One time, Marco Rubio was planning to make an appearance at the place we were working at. Brad goes off saying that he's going to the ceremony because he owes Marco Rubio a fart. Allegedly, Brad was at the urinal in a public bathroom when Marco Rubio stepped out of a toilet stall, and while walking past Brad, paused and lifted his butt towards him and farted, then continued out of the bathroom. Brad was completely serious about it. Although, I dont know if Brad ever got to payback Marco.
Restaurant antipasto salad out here in cali got moz and chickpeas in it. I like that, but my mom fuckin puts cold baked beans on her salad. That's where I draw the line. That's some midwest white shit where I cannot follow.
I think the cheese stereotype is more of a economic thing. Good cheese can be expensive. Everyone I know loves cheese.
Yeah, cheese is delicious. I was just not raised to think of how I can incorporate cheese into everything. My thing is garlic🧄and lime 🍋🟩 🤤
To me, beans only go on rice. And baked beans are a no go for me. They're too sweet. I prefer them savory. My Appalachian friends love them tho. You know it's a party when someone shows up with baked beans 🎉
When I lived in Georgia, I always enjoyed listening to my black co-workers complaining about white people. Unlike when white people were talking about non-whites, where it was usually insulting stereotypes, the complaints about white people were quite fair and accurate.
