Now all that's needed is a centralized web location to connect those scantily clad ladies seeking corn with those willing to spill their beans.

A cornhub, if you will.

Same here. Was just about to post it in both threads lol

[–] Gladaed@feddit.org 4 points 5 days ago

Might just be a weakness if currency. Or availability crisis. Usually the value of food stuffs is much lower than the service of a prostitute.

The screenshot is way to little information to go in any direction.

I'm Captain Jenks of the Horse Marines

I feed my whores on corn and beans

I often live beyond my means

I'm a captain in the Army!

This sounds like the worst rap lyric of all time.

And we’ve already had “rest in peace my granny she got hit by a bazooka”

[–] Gates9@sh.itjust.works 7 points 6 days ago

They don’t call it the oldest trade in the world for nothing

[–] GreenBeanMachine@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

I guess they would still spend that money on food, so avoiding a middle man is probably smart.

[–] altphoto@lemmy.today 5 points 6 days ago

Never trust a hooker trying to sell you corn....or....hear me out...Hanna on 35th! She's got the best corn!

[–] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Is anyone else here enough of a 90's kid to remember the TBS show Dinner and a Movie? The theme song for it just popped into my head. Doot, doo do beans and cornbread doot doo do beans and cornbread.

[–] TheRyGuy@lemmy.org 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Beans and cornbread had a fight!

[–] molten@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

I like the pictures of corn and peas in the meme in case we can only understand by image

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

just need some rice and you got a healthy balanced diet for a family of everyone

[–] FudgyMcTubbs@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Two grains?! That's not balanced.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

you gotta look at the amino acids and shit. mostly shit.

[–] FudgyMcTubbs@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Who started this ridiculous trend where the fucking words letters are substituted with symbols or numbers. Sex. Why can't sex be written? I've seen it with tons of other words too but can't remember the which ones.

[–] realitaetsverlust@piefed.zip 3 points 6 days ago

Because modern journalism is ad supported, and advertisers don't want their ads next to anything related to sex.

[–] NotSteve_@piefed.ca 30 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It sorta makes sense on overly censored social media platforms but what, that's an article on their own personally managed website? That's bizarre

[–] pennomi@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Advertisers avoid placing ads in controversially named pages. They are likely protecting their income

And it's Zimbabwe, which is like 80 something percent Christian according to Wikipedia, so their cultural mores might be different from more liberal and progressive areas.

[–] Tja@programming.dev 11 points 6 days ago (1 children)

And as the Bible says, God is stupid and if you change one letter he doesn't know that you are talking about sex. (Matthew 69:420)

[–] OwOarchist@pawb.social 20 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Why are 'beans' and 'corn' in quotes there? Are they euphemisms for something else?

[–] gnufuu 11 points 6 days ago

Sometimes quotes are ‘wrongly’ used for emphasis.

[–] BeMoreCareful@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

You beans and corn. You brought her here.

good, more trading of things.

[–] Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone 13 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Definitely not, it’s bad for the most vulnerable portion of society to not have access to money. You can’t pay rent or a doctor with corn and beans.

[–] Gladaed@feddit.org 2 points 5 days ago

You can. People used to pay in cigarettes, too.

The worth of food being high enough for this to be plausible, that's the issue. Also food has a very stable value.

[–] brillotti@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago (2 children)

You can pay for prostitutes, which means the situation is dire. Doctors can probably be bargained with in this scenario if you have the beans to pay.

I'm a therapist in the states and I accept barters

can i purchase a couple knowing looks, two nods and a hmmmyes with that or do i need more? i have three buckets of lymph i can also trade (hardly any of it is mine) in the garage but i was saving that

[–] TherapyGary@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Shoot, with all that you can even get a "and how does that make you feel?

oh i don't need one of those i know how it makes me feel. it makes me lymphy. it's why i have the buckets.

[–] Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 week ago

Doctors can probably be bargained with in this scenario if you have the beans to pay.

I’m old enough to remember a republican Senate candidate getting dragged for suggesting this as an alternative to the ACA.

[–] LeonineAlpha@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago

I went down to the corn-chemical exchange bank, and gave em 2 ears a corn, and they gave me 2 beakers a chemicals!
