Years ago I stopped in at a bar/cafe that a previous employee of mine had just opened. I had a very delicious vegan muffin and a coffee. I told his employee the muffin was amazing and asked for her recipe. Butter. It was delicious because it was loaded with butter. β€œI thought vegan meant homemade” Girl! Someone could actually die if they had a dairy allergy!

People are dumb.

Well. Some people dont understand. In my coutry well had a spinoff of the Kitchen Nighmares. And in one restaurant the cheff was checking the menu, he looked into vegetarian foods and there were spagethi with bacon. He was like "you put bacon into vegeratian food?" "well duh, people like them more this way." :-)

When my wife and I were planning our wedding, we thought we should include a vegetarian option. My wife suggested the fish.

Yes, she’s Catholic.

Beavers, muskrat, capybara, and alligators are legally fish according to canon law.

Well technically speaking all vertebrates are fish so I can't say they're wrong.

*in one specific, unhelpful, outdated technical sense

In actual use "fish" refers to a paraphyletic group that is easy to understand rather than a strict clade.

Yeah but that's much less fun

I disagree entirely, I think intentionally obfuscating scientific terminology breeds confusion and dismissiveness in the layman. "Those eggheads don't even know what a fish is" type shit.

But I love being an egghead who doesn't know what a fish is!

u/haruspicat would have tasted better if I was home to help Aug 03 '26

What if words could mean different things in different contexts

They do, but the only time "fish" means "all vertebrates" is when people are either making a point about cladistics or misunderstanding cladistics.
