Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that doesn’t justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like a hippo
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

So I was at the kebab shop today and was about to order my usual lamb kebab but suddenly it occurred to me that even though the kebab had cabbage and hummus and tabouli on it it wasn't woke enough to trigger any nearby National or ACT voters nearby so I switched the order to a falafel.

I ordered extra hummus but I was in a quandary about the sauce. Should I go with yogurt or avocado? I really didn't think it would taste good with both of them and after a quite a bit of thought I went with plain yogurt without garlic. I don't know if that was the right choice in terms of wokeness but it did taste good. What do you guys think is more woke yogurt or avocado? I think the avocado might actually be more woke because it would make the kebab vegan and nothing upsets David Seymour more than a vegan except maybe teachers, trans people, people in a union, people who work for a living, government employees, students, doctors and nurses, people who need healthcare etc.

Also are Jalapeños woke? I think they might be because of the spelling alone but then again I don't think they have them in the middle east.

Finally the kebab tasted great, was filling and has a reasonable cost. Might have even been healthy who knows. Highly recommended.

I'm loving the deviant energy in this!

Maybe I've had too many bad felafel dishes, but I reckon the yogurt is a better choice over avocado. Definitely less woke, though... Maybe I need to boost the humus?

A good kebab shop is worth traveling for.
