Why is it always pancakes or cereal that people eat in the mornings in american movies? And orange juice. That shit is disgusting, no surprise you all fat and stupid.
Do you really do this in real life too? I know for a fact that americans wear shoes indoors like in movies, but.. cereal and pancakes for breakfast? That's too much..
t. European eating eggs or whatever for breakfast. More often than not I just skip the breakfast nowadays.
>And orange juice. That shit is disgusting
Laughing at your Vitamin C deficient diet
Enjoy having kidney stones and poor eyesight and me talk health because you couldn't handle the pure health that is O.J
Orange juice is the worst part of an American breakfast. More sugar than a soda, and somehow it's okay to give it to children. You should be drinking milk.
In fact I'd wager obesity in the US would fall by 90% if you just told parents that it's not okay or normal or healthy to give your children fruit juice daily.
Fun Fact, Florida's Natural OJ is actually the least sweet orange juice you can buy. Because of the greening issues the farmers have here, lots of oranges are not as sweet as is normal. They are still perfectly edible so they get mixed in with the "good" oranges. Plus it's local industry AND farmer owned from the actual plant to the juicing plant.
Enjoy being a fat moron
Orange Juice is packed with refined sugars and preservatives. Unless you make homemade OJ I wouldn't touch it
moron ALERT, moron ALERT!
Fricking moronic Black personhomosexual, enjoy ur diabetes
Oranges are 9k, but orange juice is pure sugar you fricking idiot. Enjoy your flab and diabetes
>I eat pizza it's very healthy because one of the main ingridients is tomato sauce and tomatoes are rich in vitamin C. Enjoy your kidney stones haha
Seething.
Never had time for breakfast growing up I got used to not having it. On the weekends I might have an English muffin/toast, bacon or sausage, and eggs.
english breakfast are the best. Though can quickly make you fat if you're on a cut. Had those for a week when I was visiting Ireland, and I must admit, even black pudding was great despite hating it for how it is done.
But american breakfast is just corn syrup and carbs. Nothing else. Shit's disgusting
English breakfast looks like something I would try but is way too much for me in the morning.
I agree, but once I tried it I ordered it everyday for a week. Very filling and most likely over 1000 kcals in one meal, so not very healthy (if you wanna lose weight) but quite tasty. I'd rather get english breakfast then skip dinner rather than eat pancakes or cereal in the morning.
>Hating it for how it's done
Wat?
Cereal is prepared instantly. You shove it in your mouth and go to work. In film, the character eating cereal is either in a hurry or too lazy to make any other kind of food, usually the latter. He's often in pajamas to emphasize the laziness. Cereal is something you eat in America because you need fuel for work. Eating cereal without a goal is a sign of laziness.
Pancakes are actually cooked, unlike cereal. In film, they symbolize parental love because kids love pancakes but they have to be made and cooked by the parents. Often in film, a deadbeat dad will take his kid to a restaurant and order them pancakes, showing that he's a piece of shit because he won't make pancakes himself. He's just acting like he cares about the kids. Or, there's a mother who makes her kid pancakes and is like, "shut up, hurry up and eat your pancakes, we have to go." she is also superficially loving her kid. Rather than letting the kid be themself, the mother is forcing her ideals on the child
So there's American breakfast symbolism in film. Hth
Thanks that explained a lot, honestly. But what about real life? Do amerimutts really? I mean, ok once a week it is fine to eat pancakes or cereal but everytime???
Cereal is quite literally the most basic, go-to breakfast here.
Thanks, my plan is to visit USA some time in near future and gonna observe their habbit. I used to eat cereal when I was a teen though, but maybe 2-3 months a year, not everyday for a year
>my plan is to visit USA some time in near future
Don't, we hate tourists. It's expressly why we refused to adopt metric.
This is a lie, we love tourists and are enamored with accents. It's just that Imperial makes sense for a lot of things like bodily measurements or weather.
I am sure you did not mean it. I am not like the other tourists, I mostly keep to myself and appreciate the place/location I am in.
where do you plan on visiting?
Pancakes and big breakfasts are usually reserved for a Sunday morning or something, cereals are quick and easy to make on weekdays.
My monday through friday is usually hardboiled eggs some ham slices and toast.
I have eggs and toast most mornings. Sometimes cereal and some fruit. But make pancakes or waffles at least once a week.
nobody eats pancakes daily. cereal is absolutely common, though. for me, it's oatmeal and some protein, whether that is bacon, eggs, deenz or whatever. a little fruit is a good idea, too. toast might be another item people eat fairly often.
>burgers?
I don't understand it. You eat oatmeal with sardines and strawberries for example? That's disgusting.
oatmeal in a bowl, deenz on the side, an apple on the side. are you moronic?
A lot of Americans don't eat until lunch these days.
I am from Indian, and everday I eat pussy for breakfast
Literally noone has the time to make pancakes, waffles or eggs benedict on a tuesday morning.
There are some other tropes:
>mother (or other family member) makes full breakfast spread:
>pancakes, waffles, scrambled eggs, bacon, OJ, coffee, tea, fruit salad
>"Sorry honey I'm running late for work"
>grabs half a piece of toast with jam running to his car
If that was real life spouses murdering their husbands would be a pandemic.
Then there's the "gas station breakfast burrito" trope that in my head at least goes together with the "shaving in the car on your way to work" trope.
And I don't know if city slickers do this for real, but people "meeting up" for breakfast is another one that comes to mind. Like I"ll gladly stop by IHOP on a roadtrip or like leaving for vacation cuz the fridge is empty, but I swear to god every movie in new york has people meeting up at some hotel for the continental breakfast from contract negotiations to meeting your long lost aunt.
Now that being said, I usually make waffles instead of pancakes on weekends. Got myself a sweet waffle iron, just gotta make the batter, pour it in and within 12-15 minutes I have enough waffles for 4+ people. Any leftover waffles can be snacked on or just freeze them. Go well with ice cream too.
And for gods sake someone post the "european squeezes past his bike after eating a whole egg" post.
Having raised a teenager, I can confirm that the "making a hige breakfast for someone who just grabs a piece of toast" trope is real. The thing is *often they sit down and eat*.
And you are correct that the desire to murder does occur.
But hey, at least pancakes and hashbrowns reheat.
Huh, i never thought about the symbolism of a dad taking out his kid to eat pancakes. Is america secretly kino? Anyone gotta list of American films I should watch?
that was actually enlightening
rent free
Stop shoving your media down everyone's throats then.
I can never eat pancakes in the morning, they're too filling, but I'll eat a stack of them for dinner
Americans are addicted to insulin and are being intentionally put on track to be dependent on it by big corporations.
Go keto now and save your life
>t.lost 70lbs
Nah, OP here, I always believed in CICO and it worked for me for 9 years and counting. Never got fat again after I decided to count calories ( with rare excapetions when on vacation etc.)
Carbs are fricking neccesary, even more so than protein, to keep you alive. I also incorporate fats too but mostly focus on carbs>protein>then fat.
>And orange juice. That shit is disgusting
I can understand not caring about pancakes and cereal, but orange juice is fantastic and you are a barbarian.
once in a while, sure, but not everyday. Shit is acidic and high in calories.I think that like some anons pointed it out, american diet is so shit that they need orange juice to supply them with vitamin C despite it being plentiful in fruits and veggies.
I'm an American and I eat eggs, yogurt with berries, and steel-cut oats every morning. Unless I skip breakfast then it's just coffee.
I ate cereal a lot when I was a kid, and on Sundays my mom would frequently make pancakes. The cereal/pancake trope is a reminder of childhood, nostalgia for simpler days. That's why you see it so much
thanks for your response. I ate pancakes (europoor version of it) and cereal too when I was a kid. Have a nice day/night
To add to that, my mom would also make bacon or sausage with the pancakes. Sundays were a lot of fun, and my friends were always impressed with how much my mom made.
Strangely enough, in Europe I almost never ate breakfast. Eggs didn't seem that important, and other than bread or some other pastry European breakfasts seemed pretty sparse. If you're wondering about cereal, like other anons ITT have said it's a quick, easy breakfast you can eat between taking a shower and going to school. Toast is another quick breakfast, but Cocoa Puffs were usually more appealing to a youthful palate
I also eat yogurt but mostly in summer with bananas and cherry jam. Sausages with eggs are my go to breakfast mealf for several years now.
Do people really not wear shoes indoors
Fricking animals
OP here, right now I am with my socks on. When it gets really hot, I remove them. But usually I am barefoot or with socks indoors. And slippers if I am at my moms.
I can relate to that. The only time I'll take my shoes off in a house is when I'm at your moms house.
cheeky c**t aren't you. But she needs it, glad you worked it out with her.
Original cereals are decent but not especially healthy. Cheerios, Wheeties, Grape Nuts, Shredded Wheat, etc. It prepares instantly and the textural contrast between the cold milk and the cereal is nice. Sliced banana on top is also good. In the winter time try microwaving grape nuts and milk and then drizzling some honey on top. Great stuff.
Pancakes on the weekend is kino. If you haven't had proper diner-made pancakes you're missing out.
Yes, orange juice from the store is gross. It's just acid and sugar. Fresh stuff is great but you don't need much.
>t. European eating eggs or whatever for breakfast. More often than not I just skip the breakfast nowadays.
This is the healthiest way to go. Eggs with some homemade sourdough is delicious.
Because bacon and eggs isn't a kosher meal
I cant afford breakfast.
I get one loaf of bread a week. No butter. If im feeling rich then I'll get tiger bread. £1.70.
The rest of my money goes on rent, tax and child support. Im looking forward to October, i can replace my shoes then
Are you serious? How can you survive on just 1 loaf of bread per week?
I eat the biscuits at work. In my old role my coworkers kinda took pity on me and would bring in cakes etc, but they all knew it was mainly for me. Im so proud i couldnt eat it, but by Thursday id eat it. I self harm a lot and im known as being a complete wreck.
I changed role recently and my new coworkers are a lot more ruthless, and there are no more biscuits. So i just sleep when i finish work. My fridge is empty, and I've had two slices so far, so hopefully i can make this one last
Almost every church or food bank would help you with no questions asked. There's a very thin line between pride and stupidity, anon.
Im not entitled to food banks anon, i work full time, and you need either a support worker, the jobcentre or some authority figure to give you a voucher. In England you are worse off in work. If i didnt work, id be in a more secure position.
I've looked into it, no one will help me, they will say "manage your finances better". I cannot cut anymore corners. Everything i own was donated to me.
I didn't know you were in England, my condolences. Where I am in Nevada you can just roll up, hop in line, and they'll just give you everything you need for a week. Bread, milk, eggs, canned goods, chicken, etc. Other places will give you giant crates of random vegetables for $2 or $3, doesn't matter what your financial situation is. There has to be something that will help you. Do you have any soup kitchens or anything like that? If you're proud you can always contribute to them when you're back on solid ground.
I've offered to volunteer at food banks with the hope of collecting a few unwanted items but they all said no. Thats ok, a lot of places have too many people helping.
That sounds good there actually support for people in your state. England has this image of a great welfare state, but its horrific. If i won the lottery i wouldnt pack, I'd just go straight to the aiport.
Theres no way for me to get help, my elderly neighbour sometimes lets me have a few tins, he really hates peas, so if the foodbank give him tinned peas, I'll eat them. I dont own a microwave so he'll let me heat them at his.
I'll have saved up enough money to buy some shoes, if i stick to my budget. My moms house is without water though, so i might have to borrow her some money, i hope not because then i wouldnt get any shoes until 2023
Anon, i live in a filthy commie block in a ghetto. And i dont have any cooking untensils, and no practical way to heat beans. Bread is easy, its cheap, it lasts, i dont have to spend money heating things up.
I used to get discount food from the local shop, but everyone just buys it all at once, leaving nothing for anyone else. I literally say someone tip the whole tray into a trolley, i was going to confront them but i dont want aggression
Get a job as a dishwasher in a pub nights.
You'll get one free meal a day, and you can use the extra money for shoes and mum.
Maybe even buy some groceries.
My situation is impossible anon. I appreciate the suggestion, but i can go to prison if i take a lower paying job. They payments would remain the same but my income would be lower.
They have every avenue cornered
A second job, anon.
Offer a trade to a pub to mop their floors after closing every night for a meal.
Yes, i just thought i could fit it around my current schedule. You know what, im going to take this advice. Because im at the limit of what i can endure.
I was going to kill myself January 2023, but I'll give this a try. Maybe good things will happen as a result
It's going to suck but maybe you can make some friends there and you'll get some more food and money.
Good luck!
Good luck anon!
Thanks anon. I dont want to die, i want to live, i want to be happy, and every day is a struggle.
Im willing to try anything to keep myself alive
Im half tempted to try this, I'd only be able to do sunday nights, but i reckon i would burn out, I've been off work for the past 2 weeks with stress.
Im just some middle aged man in a mid level position living on the breadline close to death. Nothing special.
Thanks anon, God bless you
>off for 2 weeks due to stress
>living on the breadline close to death
kek
Your position would be very remarkable and special were it true
If you can prove you're white, I'll send you money
Anon, it would help me immensely but you don't have to. I wouldnt mind having a friend though.
Food banks will help anyone on a low or no income. Most who use them don’t actually need the help, which is why they are so picky when they go.
Dandelion greens are very nutritious and dandelions grow everywhere.
Also, instead of a loaf of bread a week, buy some beans.
I'll pray for you, anon. Your misery seems mostly self-inflicted
No not really self inflicted. I had a family, it broke down, the child support payments have crippled me and pushed me to suicide. Im not a bad person, i dont deserve to die. I got to work, i keep myself to myself. Im polite.
I just wish i had never met my ex. I went to family court twice to try and get access to that child. She didnt need to destroy his life. He had a whole family on my side that wanted to care for him.
It doesnt fricking matter what type of person i am, it doesnt matter me and hundreds of thousands are in my position
Sorry to hear that, fren.
If your larp were true, which it isn’t, it’s self-inflicted.
Frick you made mistakes in your life and now you gotta pay for it. Then again, we all make mistakes, just don't off yourself, life is wonderful.
I had a family with an evil woman. I havent seen the child in 6 years and last i heard he was being put into psychiatrkc care because shes been abusing him.
Im close to suicide, the only reason i havent is because my mom would have to pay the funeral costs, i dont have enough to cover the expenses.
Why the frick are you posting on a Cinemaphile board ? Do you even have enough internet to watch movies ?
My phone is £16 per month for unlimited internet. I cant do without my phone or the net, its how i pay my rent, and ofcourse i need to contact work via my phone.
I watch free movies on my phone, but a lot of the streaming sites have died, and showbox doesn't work anymore. I watche The Cell last week because its on YouTube, its a fantastic film. I forgot how stunning Jlo is.
Its very difficult to find free films on YouTube, a lot of indian/Bollywood films come up instead
Whats your race ?
Straight white male, why?
How the frick did you manage to frick up so badly ?
I made the genius decision to fall in love and start a family with an insane woman in modern England.
I dont recommend it.
Watch this video, it will help shine some light
Fish and pigeons are free. Cook em with a fire in the park. Eat dandelion greens.
You ever think about making some YouTube shorts or tie toks about these laws and how fricked up it is? I'm not a zoomer but that stuff reaches a large audience and you can monetize it. It could be therapeutic and profitable for a little while.
I have actually. The system is fricked up, i dont deserve to live in these circumstances.
Im not attractive though, but i suppose i can use an anonymous avatar. Im in the group 14 times more likely to commit suicide and let me tell you, its real, absolutely real. Im one bad conversation away from jumping, and i hope to God i die quickly
However if i went viral i guarantee the UK government would 100% shut me down. I suppose i would have to make multiple accounts, like Tommy Sotomayor or AIU
He couldn’t do that because it isn’t true so he wouldn’t make money.
W-what happens in October?
This is what I want you to do. Pick a state and city of your choice in the US. Come live here for a couple months and just enjoy yourself.
Even though I could afford it, but it would be a waste of my money to do that for several months, weeks maybe, sure, planning for that in 2023 if Europe doesn't go to war with Putin by then.
For me? Pancakes that have a little crispy edge to it
for me, it's french toast
A man of taste
>t. limp dick ketogay
CARBS are nummy and I only eat my nummies
You do realise that full english breakfast only apply to England and Ireland? They aren't even part of Europe just some random islands. Look at the map, mongrel
Ok, I'm off to bed now, thanks for responding. It a little bit made things more clear. Americans do eat this shit everyday, not all of them, but it's their culture. I can understand this. Bye bye
>reddit spacing
>Pancakes
That's maybe once a week for giant fatties, less for smaller fatties.
>Cereal
Yes. Americans were all brainwashed in the 80s and 90s into thinking that ever eating fat or cholesterol would cause them to immediately die of heart attacks. Conveniently, multi-billion dollar food corporations told us that their cereal was a healthy alternative. Granted it's just a giant bowl of sugar, but they tell us it has vitamins and fiber so we just eat it. Yes, this is a big part of why Americans are so fricking fat.
>Orange Juice
My grandparents always had a very tiny glass (like a shot glass) of fresh-squeezed orange juice in the morning. Now people drink 10 times that.
Sugar and refined carbs are what are making Americans so fricking fat, but we're told the exact opposite in the media all day, every day.
>shoes indoors
Get over it, you pussy b***h.
Because those are two foods that can be room-temperature for hours and not make the actors gag.
Maybe the cereal needs to be cooled periodically but it's not going to get hard or gross like cream of wheat or oatmeal.
Satisfied?
>That shit is disgusting, no surprise you all fat and stupid.
Kek. At least we don't eat fricking beans as a breakfast food. BEANS!
>cereal and pancakes for breakfast?
Together? I've never seen a movie where this happened
ain't nothin' wrong with beans, bud.
>Do you really do this in real life too?
I just drink coffee and eat a banana. As a kid I'd always get scrambled eggs, toast, and a Flintstone gummy :]
I don't eat breakfast anymore but I used to eat cereal like every day when I was in elementary through high school. Pancakes are more of a rare treat, and often paired with bacon.
Another option is bacon egg and cheese sandwiches (typically bagels or croissants rather than bread slices) you can get at various to-go places in the morning on the way to work or school.
there's so many dumb "do americans really" things that I'll totally admit to, but there's also a whole list of stupid shit that goes on in europe
and asia, the southeast, is totally moronic from what i've seen
They post that stuff because if they had to talk to other eurogays they'd just be a loser neet, compared to Americans they have it really good aside from the shitty food.
>compared to Americans they have it really good
>people in GREAT britian can't even afford water
Yes, we've been pushed to the absolute limit here. I've been lucky enough to travel the world, and the state of England is extreme decline.
Read Theodore Dalrymple's Life At The Bottom, he also did a podcast with Jordan Peterson, he sums up England succinctly.
A significant minority of us live in slum housing, suffer from malnutrition and are subject to wanton violence in filthy ghettos. Its terribly sad. Think Mega City One, but more hopeless
I could really go for a short stack of flapjacks, some french toast, an onion bagel with cream cheese, a half a pound of bacon, three scrambled eggs and a tall glass of chocolate milk right about now
>hrrm hrrm hrrm stupid americans
>I love it here in europe land, it's so great to have to pay for water at a restaurant
>Wha-what's happening to the sun?
>Oh- oh heavens! It's so hot! What do you mean you don't have free tap water?
>All I have is a bob and a shilling! Aghhh I'M DYING OF HEATSTROKE
>MY FORMERLY WHITE ETHNOSTATE PARADISE WASN'T MADE TO WITHSTAND HEAT
>HELP ME AMERIBROS! WE NEED ICE PACKS AND CEILING FANS
>BAIL US OUT AGAIN, PLEASE
you can't beat a korean breakfast
I think chinks are the most disgusting, vile people on the planet. I would rather spend a year in Ethiopia than a week in China, Korea or Thailand.
I typically skip breakfast in exchange for sleeping later.
do euros seriously just spend every waking minute on this website sperging out over someone eating pancakes? Why...?
you guys have a little opinion for everything don't you
Americans are goy slaves. They don't have time for themselves, that's why they drink boxed orange juice and eat crappy cereal first thing in the morning. They don't have the willpower to practice IF either.
I'm broke out with syphilis right now, or else I'd be going to a waffle house in the morning thanks to this thread. I really need pancakes now.
Pancakes are great but I haven’t had them in years. I got 16 more eggs today though. That’s the only breakfast related food I usually eat. I probably bought like 4 or 5 boxes of cereal in the past 2 years? And orange juice is delicious and refreshing but yeah lots of sugar
cereal was invented in this country to prevent masturbation
Explain
lol look up Kellog
or watch The Road to Wellville
>And orange juice
Nothing wrong with orange juice with breakfast, moron
They want to take cars from us, they want to take A/C from us, and now they want to take our pancakes. I for one, will not allow it.
americans eat butter-fried candy for breakfast, don't you know
off topic
what I'm reading is that europoors can't even afford breakfast
American diners are so comfy in movies
Disgusting
damn those pancakes look tasty
It actually disgusts me that people mix pancakes, syrup and bacon. Its like mixing lamb and ice cream to me.
This was my breakfast yesterday
That cabbage? Based if so.
Spinach
Even better
looks horrible
I skip breakfast and eat early lunch at 11
>>Do you really do this in real life too?
>t.
>eating
Just get your nutrients directly from the sun like a normal person.
>Going outside
Just tap into the Source of creation directly like a normal yogi.
>implying I don't have a skylight
Just bake a couple dozen potatoes one day a week. Re-heat one or two for each meal, you fricking glutton. All you need to live ate.potatoes. you don't even have to try to grow them. Just drop some on the ground and throw some grass clippings or leaves over them and come back in a couple weeks. All you gays trying to make everything so damn difficult for yourselves, and none of it is going to get you a girlfriend who actually loves you and isn't a lunatic.
I'm american and can't even remember the last time I ate breakfast. Just a latte for me thanks
America's addiction to sugar is disgusting. How the frick can you start your day eating what is essentially a dessert and downing it with more liquid sugar? That said, I do occasionally enjoy making buttermilk pancakes for dinner
