600 points upvoted and didnt even happen.
ok and now what it’s still kinda funny
ITT: people taking a shitpost seriously again, lmao
Its called a stupid excuse.
Dodged a bullet, etc., but still, why? What’s the thinking here as to why you should wait to start eating the bread?
To signal wealth
Only the poors enjoy bread enough to reach for it immediately.
If I had received this text, I would consider myself lucky

Fuck bitches, eat bread
OP after never talking to this person again:
Didn’t expect that ending.
Okay
“Everybody knows […]” means my parent(s) had some weird or strict rules and life lessons that I had hounded into me which I internalized into my very being and never questioned, and now I have unspoken and often unrealistic expectations of people and the world that no one has absolutely any reason to know about.
This should be the reply.
Nah it should be “bye”
¿Por qué no los dos?
I thought it was five seconds. Five minutes maybe for the last roll if you’ve had two or three already. I can’t stand it when everyone is so damn polite not wanting to take the last one of a shared food item to the point of allowing it to go to waste. Give it a fair pause but then take that last roll or cookie or whatever if you want it.
I mean I prefer to have a roll while they’re still warm.
I give everyone an easy out in that situation, because the people I eat with just look at me by default to take the last one. It did take a while of me saying, “Well if no one else wants it, I’ll take it,” to get to that point.
One person’s red flags are another person’s dodged bullets.
Yeah, wait for the bread to stop being warm and fresh before you eat.
“What am I suppose to Jerry!? Just ADMIRE it??”
Guess they love cold bread!
Genuinely, I believe this originates from their family preventing them from filling up on bread at restaurants.
Families really mess some people up with their made up rules. Meet a girl that was raised that you can’t talk at the dinner table. She thought it was normal to sit down, eat an entire meal, and then get up in dead silence.
I remember meeting someone in high school that was confused that everyone was eating and drinking in the same meal. Because in their house and extremely limited world view, you EAT. Then you leave the table and go DRINK.
Ehh … It’s more likely etiquette to not descend on the rolls like a starving Labrador retriever. Much of manners is about self restraint and making oneself ‘small’. The idea is that you wait a minute or two, so it’s not like being at the Chinese food buffet when a fresh load of sweet and sour pork comes out. Everyone piling in for the rolls is undignified. It’s related to the idea that even if you really want that last roll, you ask if anyone else would like it before snatching it for yourself.
… but judging someone for grabbing one when they come out? Pretty prissy.
If rent is more than 10% of my income, I AM a starving Labrador.
I think you’re right. I guess they had parents who were big on setting rules, but not on justifying them.
I’m pretty sure my parents throttled my bread intake at restaurants when I was very young for the reason you state, but they accompanied their directive with a “don’t fill up before you get your main course” justification. So I didn’t assimilate it as a rule of etiquette, and instead understood the underlying logic.
Nice, dodged a bullet
That is a red flag text.
