You are what you eat.

On a definitely related note, I've recently been thinking it's wild how we build foot paths out of rocks and then put on rubber socks for actually walking on them.

In other words, asphalt is a scam by Big Foot to sell more shoes.

Imagine if all roads were made of soft squishy stuff like rubber or carpet…one can only dream…

[–] Scott_of_the_Arctic@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That sounds fucking disgusting

[–] sbeak@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Just go to Vegas and walk through the casinos now imagine them even less maintained

The real hot dog was the hot dog we made along the way

[–] CarbonatedPastaSauce@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago

The rest of the animal isn’t around a hot dog casing.

I am a meat popsicle.

I thought we were ugly bags of mostly water.

[–] hansolo@lemmy.today 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Both correct.

Also, there are four lights.

[–] klemptor@startrek.website 4 points 2 months ago

There's a fifth, but

[–] LuckyJones@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Shh! Not so loud. You'll spook the neighbours.

They're made out of meat

[–] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 3 points 2 months ago

Maybe we're a carbon based intelligence that just goes through a meat phase.

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

Statement: While the majority of Lemmy may consist of subpar meat bags that does not mean all are meat bags.

[–] moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 2 months ago (3 children)

if you turn the inside of a hotdog into feces it's not a hotdog anymore, this is my hot take

[–] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 months ago

It only stops being a hot dog when it comes out of your ass as it is no longer encased.

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

But by that logic, a human centipede wouldn't be a string of hot dogs.

[–] Scott_of_the_Arctic@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I don't know if they're dogs, but they're definitely hot. 3===\\\\'=>

[–] tfowinder@beehaw.org 1 points 2 months ago

Your take is shit!

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 7 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Surely you become the sausage, not the hot dog? Unless you lay in a long bread roll as well?

[–] spankinspinach@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago

What else is there to do for fun??

[–] humorlessrepost@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I lay in your mom’s yeast roll

[–] winkly@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

It’s hotdogs all the way down

[–] Prox@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

We are all hot dogs on this blessed day. 🙌

[–] draconik@infosec.pub 2 points 2 months ago

Speak for yourself

[–] anhkagi@jlai.lu 4 points 2 months ago

a hotdog isn't just a sausage, but we might consider ourselves sausages tho

[–] Vanilla_PuddinFudge@infosec.pub 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Not all hotdogs have casings

[–] chocosoldier@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 months ago

[–] ApeNo1@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Oh hotdog, you completo me.

[–] RedBauble@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

Does this mean a hotdog is positevely invariant?
