Horizontally Sliced Bread

In a current Reddit post, Redditor /u/minecolas1 posted an image of “horizontally sliced bread.” Why?

Redditor /u/Phantom_Wapiti offered an answer. A popular Quebecois dish at Christmastime is a pain sandwich. That makes a little more sense when you learn that “pain” is the French word for bread. This food consists of various deli mixes, such as egg salad, chopped ham, or chicken salad, layered between slices of bread arranged like a layer cake. Cream cheese is the most common “frosting”. Chop off a slice and serve it with a fork.

Nope!

Political Correctness

“Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical, liberal minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.”
