Fuck, this is my kid...
... That's what he said. Chaotic evil. Aren't all of them near that age?
Lol pretty much
Warms my heart to see there are still places with old arcade games hanging around. Do kids even want to play stuff like centipede or is it there for the parents??
About always kids. My kids played the hell out of them when they were young there.
Whereโs the one where you suck ketchup straight from the packet and then toss some fries in your mouth?
Sex offender registry?
I thought you were gonna say... spit on the fries.
Where's mixed with mayo on the chart?
That might also qualify as lawful evil, but it does really taste good
Ketchup is a disgusting condiment loaded with sugar.
There are so many no sugar added ketchups. They're not hard to find.
Also, how do you feel about BBQ sauce? They're also loaded with sugar, moreso than ketchup.
Yes my favorite ketchups only have the original sugars from the vegetables used. And usually have some richer spices and more prominent vinegar.
BBQ basically is ketchup with brown sugar and other smokey flavor added in
The only time I really use bbq sauce is as a marinade before something goes on the grill, never really as a dip. The only time I use ketchup is as an ingredient/thin glaze in/on meatloaf before the oven.
Unfortunately those usually contain artificial sweeteners and still taste way too sweet.
I finally managed to find one local (to the Netherlands) brand that sells ketchup without added sugars or sweeteners. The brand was actually started by a person with diabetes who wanted to cut out all sugar from her diet.
Itโs so much better than the standard Heinz stuff. Much more savory, you can actually taste the tomatoes.
It of course depends on the market. In California they are not hard to find.
I tend to avoid sweet stuff in general-- I don't dislike it but I'm not often in the mood for it. I eat ketchup sometimes but I more often put sriracha on fries. BBQ sauce that isn't disgustingly sweet is difficult to find, and I'd love more ketchup options to be widely available. There's a reason heinz had 57 varieties dammit!
Everyone has their personal preferences, that's totally fine.
I just think saying ketchup is disgusting because it commonly has some sugar in it is a ridiculous statement that ignores a ton of cuisine. Even ketchup that has sugar in it doesn't have nearly as much as a lot of other sweet and savory foods so I don't understand why it gets singled out so much.
TIL there is sugar in ketchup
No, there's a bit of ketchup in the sugar
How could you not know that ketchup is sugar?!?
I was half jokingly wondering why the top comment was a truism
I'm not sure if the sugar part is meant to be evidence on how disgusting it is but I like sugar
Sugar bad
Right. It's a bit like saying chocolate bad. I'm sure it's not some health food, but in moderation seems fine.
Ketchup is fine for small children and the infirm. But that's it. Everyone else should be using mustard, (preferably with horseradish in it), or some other stronger flavored condiment. Be the adult you are!
Nothing more adult than worrying your choice of condiment might be perceived as immature
Do I need to add "slashies" to a joke here also? The point of the silly statement was to show the, to use your word, fun immaturity of the this post. And yes, it can be fun to argue about silly things even as an adult - see any sports discussion or conversation about the weather, (slashies). But evidently, there are a lot of people here who don't understand the humor of such a broad and silly statement without a road map.
There is exactly zero indication that your statement is intended as humorous instead of pretentious. "Slashies" as you call them are a thing because tone and nuance donโt convey well over text.
The opening line of "The very young and the infirm" is very much over the top and the words chosen are not common use words in daily speech. Understanding the nuance and tone of the written word would seem to be lacking. People used to be able to do that as a general rule.
It explains a lot about modern education and the general tone of discourse in modern societies.
What a silly statement.
That was the point........
Dang. I run prefer mustard, mayo, and ketchup, in that order, with my fries.
Horseradish on fries? Never tried it. With Prime rib? Sure.
There is little wrong with ketchup, (I am not a big fan of all the sweeteners they put in it these days), but the same old same old gets boring after awhile. A good spicy German mustard is a great choice for your fries. Open your mind and palate to new things.
To butcher a quote from Andrew Zimmern, "Always try the eyeballs, you never know how good they might taste"
Mustard is gross af too, though. Horseradish is biological warfare, not edible food, and I will die on that hill.
Iโm not a condiment person, even adding salt and pepper โto tasteโ is something I very very rarely do. Condiments are a waste of cooking skill and good ingredients. If I use anything itโs probably hot sauce or like sweet chilli or something actually transformative, or the food is barely edible without it (which I try to avoid). Everything else can go straight in the trash.
I like the actual taste of my food, no need to cover it up and make it taste exactly the same way every single time via condiments. Be an adult and experience subtle flavor variety.
Ofc maybe you need condiments because you are a shit cook. Thatโs ok too, but it doesnโt make you more adult than someone who prefers things differently.
I think every Michelin Star chef and restaurant on the planet would disagree with you. But hey, you do you.
You make a good point.
Where is "putting some fries in your mouth, then squeezing ketchup into your mouth"?
I think that's the hidden "Chaotic Stupid" option.
Pretty sure you're supposed to put the ketchup first, then add the fries.
Or a bowl of ketchup and a spoon with fries on top as garnish.
True neutral.
Ayee a no ketchup brother
What a sad life sans ketchup...
I can do all sorts of condiments, but ketchup is just eugh. Just give me sweet chili and we're good.
True Neutral gang
Where are the Aussie tomato sauce squeeze packs in this situation?
It's an additional 1$ coin to include it
Usually it's about 20c, 30-40c to account for inflation
Lawful evil if you ask me
You see the squeeze packs are great because its not pain like the tear open packs. You squeeze the two half's together and sauce comes out the perforation in the centre. It's great if you want to get a bit of sauce with every bite.
You sauce, then you bite. And repeat.
The only thing evil about it is the plastic (and the blasphemous and unaustralaian additional cost some takeaway joints tend to charge for the privilege of having them... Grrr condiments should be free no matter what.)
โฆsee?
Should we tell them about HSPs?
Ah yes, otherwise known as the Afterbirth, or the AB for short
A mountain of hot chips, kebab/yiros meat and a basically drowned in various sauces.
Chilli sauce, BBQ sauce, and garlic sauce mmmm
That's funny because I'm a CG on other charts as well.
Also hilarious you couldn't find a picture of ketchup soaked fries but you could find a picture of ketchup in a hand?
Plus man... you can generate the image with AI now days... That's said my attempts didn't quite get me the level of soakness or covering I wanted. This is probably the best I think, if you imagine there are fries under the ketchup and not a ketchup bowl with fries placed on the borders:
A new challenger appears
Anger those weirdly elitist hotdog council people by putting it on a hotdog you're having the fries with
TN unless the fries are shitty, in which case LN.
No ketchup. Only chili.
The eldritch entities beyond time and space: Fries with ice cream
Korea's kfc be like
I went to a hipster restaurant about a decade ago where they served fries with a shot glass full of chocolate milk shake on the side for dunking. It was really tasty ngl
This has been a thing for decades, via Wendy's Frosty.
It's also about as divisive as pineapple on pizza.
Sounds like you have never used a frosty as dunker for fries. Pro move is getting McDonald's fries with a Wendy's frosty
Wendy's fries and a chocolate frosty
Using a ketchup packet to apply on the toothbrush, cover your entire teeth with ketchup, and then eat fries.
Your comment made me physically uncomfortable. How can I delete it?
Pure evil ..... drinking ketchup straight from the bottle and chasing it with a few fries
I feel like these alignment jokes are by definition a stretch. There's always a couple good ones, some OK ones, and some terrible ones. The terrible ones ruin the whole thing for me. It would be better to have a reduced set or find another way to present the good ones I think.
Excuse me. Chaotic evil is us mayo folk.
If 'ketchup on hand' is chaotic evil, then what the hell is this?

Chaotic sexy
I regret clicking that

how the fuck did you find this
Ask not the question that will bring sorrow when answered, for the peace lies in the unspoken.
That went both too far and not far enough. I didn't expect the shovel but after it was introduced I thought literally everything was going to end up covered.
...I love the shitposts and memes over here-- never used to enjoy those subs on reddit
Cheers, buddy!
Somebodyโs fetish most likely

Ketchup is disgusting and doesn't belong on fries.
Mayo is the way.
Rip the top off the packet and dip individual fries in the packet.
Thatโs OCD.
Strictly ketchup? TN.
Any sauce? Usually LN with Dutch chip sauce or mayonnaise.
And NE with garlic sauce if I'm having a Kapsalon
What about if you get a bowl of ketchup and drizzle the fries on top?
My best friends Mexican wife put ketchup on a fucking taco tonight. I am offended. Lmao
Nice one.
I've recently learned to use the packets to apply to the fry just before I put it in my mouth. Makes it so there is always the same amount applied to the fry. Pretty nice actually
Just use the entire ketchup packet as a handy snack; you know, like a savory Gushers candy
"It's your big day, ketchup. You're an entree now."
Mayo man
That's good. So she doesn't pick at your fries.
Where does ketchup on the wall fit?
If I'm riding in a car, I'll tear open the ketchup packet, and dip a fry in it. Other times, I might squeeze the ketchup out onto each fry as I eat them-- only when using those refillable bottles with the narrow nozzle.
I've literally done every single one of these, so im thinking that's true chaotic neutral on my part...
You've filled your hand with ketchup? That's a real thing?
How else are you supposed to maximize teeth coverage
Is it worse or better that I used someone else's hand?
If I see you with kepchup on hand I'll ape out
Right there with raw onion, pickle relish and garlic mayonnaise.
I must learn more
Condiments are not to touch the fries until the chosen time. I would rather have ketchup in my hand than on top. Whether ketchup or mayo, it should be on the side. I can always dip a fry. I can't Un-dip a fry.
Imagine you ordered delivery and the cook decided you wanted the ketchup how they like it, and 45 minutes after they came out of the fryer, a large man named Shannon riled up your dogs at 10pm, handed you a soggy box of luke warm, limp, sagging, already dressed potato sticks.
