  • omg one of my most favorite reddit rants of all time!

    You People Make Me Sick

    A grilled cheese consists of only these following items. Cheese. Bread with spread (usually butter). This entire subreddit consist of “melts”. Almost every “grilled cheese” sandwich i see on here has other items added to it. The fact that this subreddit is called “grilledcheese” is nothing short of utter blasphemy.

    Let me start out by saying I have nothing against melts, I just hate their association with sandwiches that are not grilled cheeses. Adding cheese to your tuna sandwich? It’s called a Tuna melt. Totally different. Want to add bacon and some pretentious bread crumbs with spinach? I don’t know what the hell you’d call that but it’s not a grilled cheese.

    I would be more than willing to wager I’ve eaten more grilled cheeses in my 21 years than any of you had in your entire lives. I have one almost everyday and sometimes more than just one sandwich. Want to personalize your grilled cheese? Use a mix of different cheeses or use sourdough or french bread. But if you want to add some pulled pork and take a picture of it, make your own subreddit entitled “melts” because that is not a fucking grilled cheese.

    I’m not a religious man nor am I anything close to a culinary expert. But as a bland white mid-western male I am honestly the most passionate person when it comes to grilled cheese and mac & cheese. All of you foodies stay the hell away from our grilled cheeses and stop associating your sandwich melts with them. Yet again, it is utter blasphemy and it rocks me to the core of my pale being.

    Shit, I stopped lurking after 3 years and made this account for the sole purpose of posting this. I’ve seen post after post of peoples “grilled cheeses” all over reddit and it’s been driving me insane. The moment I saw this subreddit this morning I finally snapped. Hell, I may even start my own subreddit just because I know this one exists now.

    You god damn heretics. Respect the grilled cheese and stop changing it into whatever you like and love it for it what it is. Or make your damn melt sandwich and call it for what it is. A melt






  • Is it normal to not feel equipped for adult life whatsoever?

    yeah it is. so’s feeling like you should already know what you wanna do and feeling like you’re falling behind or that you are “already” 21.

    let’s see if my old ass can articulate this in a non trite way?

    the best, most relaxing thing you can learn about those confident happy older people around you —and you will only believe me after a couple decades seeing it for yourself—

    is that nearly all of us are flying by the seat of our pants, all of the time, every fucking day. it works.

    we’re faking it baby! like… all of us!

    see that 60yo? bet ya a million bucks they were a 21 yo workin a crap job, getting along just doing what they can. stack a few days up like that? boom one morning they looked at the mirror n 40 years had passed lol.

    it’s really not any more complicated than that. i swear, youre not missing anything. youre right where you need to be.

    i do remember that feeling, being 21… and vaguely i remember some old fart telling me some variation of this screed and i didn’t believe them. but i get what they mean now.
