For things that are "hmmm".

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

It is, indeed, a hot dog.

I just wonder what materials that casing is composed of and how toxic they become when heated or combusted

[–] frunch@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I believe they coat them in a heat-resistant enamel for the flamethrower DLC they plan to roll out

[–] viral.vegabond@piefed.social 7 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

You can download flamethrowers now?!?!!

[–] sudoMakeUser@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 weeks ago

You wouldn't

[–] Vandals_handle@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Only on FireWire.

They're building body language into these things to trick you into having empathy for them

Never fall for the ol' "grill tasty treats on me" routine!

1664 is exported in the US? Why?!

Seems to be in France, Coustelou seems to refer to a restaurant located in Ventenac-en-minervois

[–] Akasazh@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Well sleuthed, sir/madam/other

[–] Swemg@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Thanks, there's no city or village named coustelou but there seems to be a lot of winery in Ventenac-en-minervois so the pics seems to match.

[–] microcapybara@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, I don’t know. I’m hearing a bar here in Canada using it as a draw… it’s like… of all the French beers you could choose, why the most generic possible?
