Btw, Puerto Ricans are US citizens. But don't let that stop them.

My favorite is habanero


there's no ñ, just n, but some will make a show of pronouncing it with the incorrect ñ sound.

Disgusting that this is who superbowl picked for their halftime show.. Claims to be a bunny, but turns out he's just some human dude. Typical.

[–] MBech 79 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (2 children)

So.... would you say he's pretty bad at being a bunny? Like he's a bad bunny?

[–] bilb@lemmy.ml 21 points 4 days ago (1 children)

The worst bunny I've ever seen!

I am, of course, disgusted with this choice of Super Bowl halftime performer.

The obvious choice was to have Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce get married during the Super Bowl halftime, during which Taylor will not take the Kelce name, killing everyone watching over the age of 65.

[–] Stalinwolf@lemmy.ca 69 points 4 days ago (3 children)

Travis takes the name Swift. Conservative men melt down so badly that one of them goes out and blows Erika Kirk's head off.

[–] Default_Defect@anarchist.nexus 23 points 4 days ago

Then we'd get "he followed Taylor Swift news, so he must have been a trans leftist!!"

I am, of course, disgusted with your proposed choice of Super Bowl halftime performer.

The even more obvious choice was to have Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce enter a civil union during the Super Bowl halftime, during which Taylor will not take the Kelce name while also announcing she is 4 months pregnant and the unborn child should be referred to as "they/them", killing nearly 40% of all viewers.

It's actually impressive how insanely wrong they are.

You know what 'citizen' means now though.

Why are racists so dumb?

Is it a bug, or a feature?

Rhianna is from Barbados? Huh, TIL.

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 14 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Hmm, this got me to look up the demonym for people from Barbados. I hoped it would be something interesting, but the official one is pretty boring: Barbadians. But, the unofficial one is a bit interesting: Bajans. I thought it would be pronounced like the Spanish "baja", but apparently it's "Bay - jenz". Which is a bit cool. Not as cool as their flag, but still cool.

I remember being amazed to learn Puerto Rico is part of the US... In 4th grade.

[–] PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago

Yeah, I learned this about that age when it was announced that our state (SD) was 51st in the nation for teacher pay after PR. That's also about the time a neighboring county had the highest suicide rate in the world. Good ol' Midwestern values.

[–] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 53 points 4 days ago (6 children)

It boggles my mind how many people still don't know PR is part of the US.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 80 points 4 days ago (3 children)

The president of Puerto Rico should be removed from office! For good this time!

[–] Brown5500@sh.itjust.works 38 points 4 days ago

Thank you for your attention on this matter

That's always what's happening when they want to use the N-word and remember they shouldn't and then try to say it with other words.

It's upsetting that people can be colossally stupid and factually incorrect and face no meaningful consequences. Like, who is the OP? Why are they just walking around without a warning sign that says like "This person is stupid"?

Even my dumb fucking rural Australian ass knows that Puerto Rico is part of the US.

[–] mitchty@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 3 days ago

As a dum rural American that knows territorial citizenship is a thing (with wonky caveats not applicable to Puerto Rico) you’d be surprised how many Americans in general have zero clue pr is a part of the us. My last vaca there was fun but after I was back the amount of people that asked about passports was too dam high. And this is in a rather educated metro area.

[–] DeathByBigSad@sh.itjust.works 31 points 4 days ago (6 children)

The US is trying to reject a part of their own territory as American.

Meanwhile, PRC is trying to claim territory not under the PLA's control as Chinese.

Ironic lol

Puerto Rico should just do a Taiwan tbh. I mean if they aren't treated like Americans, you might as well.

I love the pattern on the right: "Despite X occurring plenty of times throughout the years on 'my side', this time I'm really riled up about something that's not even true!"

He loves his country so much he wants to defend it from ignorant outsiders, but isn't even aware of who has citizenship and won't explain why this didn't have any bearing on past musical performances.

Intellectual consistency isn't their strong point.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 30 points 4 days ago

I wonder if the FCC will come down harder on this than the Janet Jackson nipple slip

[–] Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de 17 points 4 days ago (3 children)

I knew Rhianna is from Barbados, and that British rock bands are generally British. But I had no idea Shakira was Colombian!

[–] ArmchairAce1944@discuss.online 18 points 4 days ago (1 children)

She is Colombian and half Lebanese, too.

[–] ZoopZeZoop@lemmy.world 17 points 4 days ago (1 children)

And that is how she gives 150% at her shows!

(Sorry. Bad dad joke.)

"Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny appearing in the Superbowl"

Honestly, "Puerto Rican" is the most appealing part of that sentence for me XD

I have a Canadian friend who asked me what is currently my favourite artist. I said bbno$, he answered "Nice, your fav artist is Canadian". I fully thought he's US artist
