That moment when your relatives or family friends gift you Russian chocolate candy like it's a special treat but you just really don't want to put it in your mouth

I guess I can give you a link to how it looks packaged https://images.app.goo.gl/xAAtahXj3H6KYqtx5

It can also be St Claus (Grandfather Frost in Russia) or a bear

I feel like the biggest give away is that you'd notice pretty quickly whether or not something is chocolate. The fact that this guy ate cremated ashes and STILL assumed it was chocolate is unbelievable.

not if your a dark chocolate liker B)

you need to eat better chocolate, normal dark chocolate tastes fine if a little bitter.

i was joking .. i like dark chocolate :-)

[–] Gustephan@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

I get it though. Like, I'm into dark chocolate myself, but beyond about 85% dark it gets to be a bit much for me. I've absolutely pretended to enjoy 99% before as to avoid embarrassing myself in front of friends who were kinda snobs about it though

Even after covid?

I searched all my cupboards for Russian chocolate. It is all crumbly and objectively terrible/an acquired taste.

Oh thank good, I was so confused for a while.

I mean, horses aren't even real.

Could be real, can't be too sure, gotta double check.

As an expert on equine burials in the pacific, I’d like to weigh in. Ocean burials make up the overwhelming majority of pacific horse funerals, but there have been notable advances in stratospheric inurnment in recent years.

what about the ash vase chocolate thing?

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 26 points 4 months ago (3 children)

You’re right, I got a bit ahead of myself. Allow me to clarify. In general, the wind in Russia moves from east to west, which is a consideration in both air travel and windmill construction. However, helicopters are among the least impacted aircraft due to their free-form movement and large, stable propellers. Takeoff and landing can both occur within a relatively small area even in unfavorable conditions. I hope that answers any lingering questions.

I love you.

[–] festnt@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 months ago

yes, that answers everything. thank you

If I look at the ceiling will you steal my lungs?

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

No. Unfortunately, I’m all out of Chianti.

[–] GreyEyedGhost@lemmy.ca 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I was more referring to this clip, but I also appreciate a little Silence of the Lambs.

As a fan of non sequiturs, I'm a bit surprised to have never seen this. Thank you for the link!
