A rage comic poking fun at the Aussies. Does it still hold up?

The best way is to use fries and crisps, and reserve chips for chocolate
French fries are technically more of a chip than a potato chip, definition wise. But I think your way is the best way, too.
Flat chips and stick chips.
Today I feel french
Patatas fritas, patatas de bolsa.
Where do chisps fit in
No Brit would refer to those as chips, they are fries in Britain too
Only in McDonalds though. Chips are chunkier, right?
Yes, chips are thick and fries are thinner
French: Les Frites; Les Chips
Hon hon hon le bonjour
My friend from Adelaide always says crisps.
How do you have a conversation if they always say a single word?
We got to know each other well prior to her conversion. She took a strict vow of silence, excluding “crisps”. We still talk. It’s impressive how much she can express with inflection.
Errr... I'm from the UK and they're fries. These are chips
If it's think it's fries, if it's thick it's a chip.
I'm American, and I'd call those steak fries. We also have potato wedges, which aren't called fries for some reason and look like this
They're seasoned with a spice blend, and delicious. Do you have curly fries in the UK? They're a similar flavor.
In the US, those would be called either “steak fries”, “potato wedges”, or perhaps “Jojos”.
They're called JoJo's. I will die on this hill. Same goes for pop and hotdish.
Ugh, “pop”. Your comment has mad Midwest vibes; you sound like my grandma.
Wtf is hotdish? I’ve never even heard of that before. Even my phone is telling me that that’s not a real word.
Honestly, the Midwest is something else. It’s like they intentionally do everything their own fucked up way just because.
“Reece’s Pieces? We’re gonna call them ‘Reecie’s Piecies’, even though the name isn’t ever pronounced ‘Reecie’ and the word is not ever pronounced ‘piecie’, because fuck you.”
You guys yell at anyone putting ketchup on a hotdog because it’s too sweet, and then proceed to absolutely drown it in sweet relish, the most foul condiment known to man. You guys have no right to consider yourselves the hotdog aficionados after that and only a fool would believe you.
According to wikipedia
A hotdish is a casserole dish that typically contains a starch, a meat, and a canned or frozen vegetable mixed with canned soup that must be served hot or warm.
So it's just a casserole. Sounds yummy
Honestly I'm so onboard with hotdish. "Casserole" is one of the least appetizing names for a type of food.
i object to the use of a portrait of Jeff Bezos to denote all Americans.. otherwise it's funny..
I’ll take Bezos over Jackie “Hong Kong doesn’t deserve democracy“ Chan.
“I’m not sure if it’s good to have freedom or not,” he said at a conference in 2009. “I’m gradually beginning to feel that we Chinese need to be controlled. If we’re not being controlled, we’ll just do what we want.”
…what the fuck?
Not sure if that is worse than "I have purchased US democracy" Bezos.
