I wish I was winning round cheeses! TFW too hetero a man to seduce a farmer and get treated like this:

I like how the URL cuts off the sentence. That’s an even better brand new sentence.

She does look somewhat fascinated in the picture. Confirmed.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Is she pointing at the cheese in the second pic? Is this the new red circle?

It's important for the sense of scale

The importance of proper punctuation rears its head.

mistakes like this tend to appear in hard to handle situations

Need a knife with full tang!

A long time ago my grandfather had a cheeseboard that had a small cut into it. And a metal bar that went around the outside with a wire that you would pull down to cut through the cheese. It was easier to use than knives and was fairly easy to clean. Similar to this:

Loved the thing

good thing that has a scale on it so you can tell how many cm of cheese you are slicing

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 7 points 8 months ago

Well, it's actually useful if you want consistent sizes.

No idea why that one has that, but I suppose if you want cubes for something, it could make it easier, haha

I think this board would work great with butter too.

Butter packaging comes with the same kind of markings. Usually 50g instead of 1 cm, but I guess you can do the math depending on what you need to slice with a string.

Also press on the top of the knife instead of only using the handle. And cut it on an angle so it's not trying to press down on the whole length at once. And don't try to pull the blade towards the handle (which is usually the ideal way to cut) if you're cutting that much cheese because it grips the entire length of the blade and that might have more force than the handle can handle (heh), like in this case.

Lubricating the blade could help, maybe use a nice chili oil to give the edge a bit of a kick.

Time flies like an arrow
Fruit flies like a banana

[–] 0ops@lemm.ee 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Wait is that second line "Fruit ... flies like a banana" (parabola), or"Fruit flies ... like a banana" (insects)?

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 3 points 8 months ago

That's basically the joke, these sentences look very similar but the structure is very different. And you can even force both reading on both sentences. There isn't much I know about time flies but apparently they prefer arrows.

WHERE IS THE PARALLELOPIPED CULTURED DAIRY?!

[–] Eff4_Fairah@lemm.ee 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Why I knew it was Cathedral city cheese of all 😅

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 2 points 8 months ago

I found it too crumbly when slicing so now buy Pilgrim's Choice instead.

[–] sbv@sh.itjust.works 3 points 8 months ago

It's round, but it fits fully within a voxel.
