Siblings remember...
(lemmy.nz)
There needs to be a statue of limitations for childhood cringe events.
Upon hearing that danish pastries came from Denmark my sister asked “then where do cinnamon buns come from?” and my mom was laughing too hard to stop me making fun of her. To this day I can bring it up to instant rage lol
Or the time she drilled an ez-anchor into a wall stud and melted it to half the length. She’s done some housework better more recently but that one is still funny.
Cinnamon buns are from Sweden (according to the Swedes).
Chelsea?
What’s wrong with asking where pastries come from? Sounds like you would’ve made fun of anything. I guess siblings are just like that though.
People from Denmark are Danes, they are Danish. Danishes are danish pastries Cinnamon buns are buns made with cinnamon and do not come from the isle of cinnamon.
I get the joke but maybe she was just asking about the next pastry in the case. Must come from somewhere. Still teasing her about it until she’s mad is kind of a dick move.
Local lemmy user offended on behalf of your sister for a joke told 10 years ago.
More at 11.
We were at home, it was very unprompted.
The reason it’s especially funny is that she got mad very quickly. Like, it wasn’t about pushing her to get mad but rather that it was pretty muchbthe first place she went. This was also probably 15 years ago.
I get what you’re trying to do, but it’s fine.
Fun fact: in Denmark, we call it "Wienerbrød" (Viennese bread) and technically both are accurate as the pastries were invented in Copenhagen by Austrian pastry chefs who had immigrated from Vienna 😁
Oh neat fact!
Like that time I had that fire extinguisher fight with my brother...
At least it wasn’t a freak fire during a gasoline fight.
details?
We had a fight, and a fire extinguisher may have come off the wall at some point. A fire extinguisher makes a surprising amount of mess if you're not aware. There's not some huge story here. It was a fight that involved a fire extinguisher.
*Siblings. No apostrophe.
But they ain't remember how to grammar
