5D Hypercube: Don't leave home without it

Lol. We don’t use separate plates unless we are served them at a restaurant.

As an alternative: when the table is set with Bowie Knife and gun, the gun goes to the left.

That's an Australian-American breakfast.

And once propane-as-a-service takes off, you stop outright selling propane

The gun is on the correct side of the plate for a right hand shooter, but should be laying on it's left side so that it can be picked up from above with the right hand. </s>

Death_Equity ,

Remove the /s, you are right and the commenter was ignorant of traditional American etiquette.

JE2SJWMKLS ,

Can't I be both right and sarcastic?

Death_Equity ,

The best kind of sarcasm is right.

Also, "lying". "Lay" means "to recline".

The Breakfast Gun goes on whichever side the diner's firing hand is.

Edits below!

After some discussion and reflection, I agree with @Zachariah that the Breakfast Gun would indeed go on the left, "to show you plan for a peaceful meal."

Furthermore, presentation of Firearms depends on the level of dining:

At a polite table, guests are expected to lay their Meal Arms down holstered, so as not to soil the table linens. Placing a Meal Arm directly on the tablecloth is a sign of disrespect.

At a formal table, a Firearm Napkin will be provided for each diner. This allows diners to display their Meal Arms openly without soiling the linens.

At a "high table," Meal Arms will be provided by the host. These Arms, while fully functional, are adorned with many engravings and flourishes, as a demonstration of the host's status, and the diner's status as a guest at the table.

Awesome, thanks.

It goes on the opposite side to show you plan for a peaceful meal.

Nougat ,

Now that's etiquette.

Death_Equity ,

That isn't an ambidextrous gun, so it belongs on the right.

Or are Bri’ish

Nythos ,

The whole “Bri’ish teeth are bad” meme is false

If you’re a politician, you get a free side of blatant corruption too

Wait … I worry what you heard was, 'Give me a lot of bacon and eggs. ' What I said was, give me all the bacon and eggs you have ~ Ron Swanson

ours , in Basic American etiquette

With a Swiss gun 😁.
And matching my mug.

I_Fart_Glitter , in Basic American etiquette

It used to be, but at this point in history, that's like $300 worth of bacon.

Death_Equity ,

From experience that is about $20-30.

modifier ,

Only one way to resolve this dispute: gentlemen, to your respective breakfast guns.

Death_Equity ,

Ok, but can't we just cook $300 worth of bacon and find out who is right and have enough bacon to stop my heart instead?

Not enough bacon.

There are no sidewalks near any of my nearest gyms ironically, and I live in a fairly large city. Just busy stroads as far as the eye can see.

„What is the USA?“

grue ,

So fix that instead of normalizing inefficient nonsense!

candyman337 , in Got a Point
@candyman337@sh.itjust.works avatar

That's because it's not walkable between home and the gym

DragonTypeWyvern , in Got a Point

I can run a nice, wooded trail, or I can suck on exhaust fumes on an ugly road next to dangerous drivers.
