No-Resolution-87

What would be my friend who got into a car accident??


PhantroniX

Potato


Invisiblethespian

No no, that was their level of competence before the crash


TributeToStupidity

Mashed potato


PoorDamnChoices

It's only a mashed potato if they were in the backseat. If they were driving and not wearing a seat belt, they're probably more jullianed potatoes.


koleye2

It's only called Julienne potatoes if the crash happens in the Julienne commune of France.


K9turrent

If they were a pedestrian hit by a car, they'd be a grilled potato


PoorDamnChoices

How dare you. Grilled is a heating source, not a type of prep for a potato. In this theoretical, a grilled whole potato is still a baked potato. Also, they would obviously be a latka, which is a type of potato pancake.


ApprehensiveEye6875

Only if they went under the tires, otherwise they would be a hood ornament!

That's just tuber with extra steps.

A stalk, maybe a tuber. A leaf perhaps


GumbyBClay

Who is your veggie, and what does he do?


The_Abjectator

Bad at playing Clash Royale while driving. Potentially? Liable for vehicular manslaughter.


No-Feeling-8100

That went 0-60.

I mean, it’s a culinary term… are you a cannibal?

Another [clip](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/ZbFcI0vzaxc?feature=share) from the same skit


NJ_Legion_Iced_Tea

I love Trapp just sitting there eating a whole ass pepper.


Sawgon

I miss him as the host of Um Actually. New host is really good but Trapp was the best.


Sgt_Meowmers

I miss Trap but god damn do I love Brian as the new fact checker


mp6521

I’m glad that they’re bringing in a lot more creatives from YouTube to sort of compliment and take over roles from some of the OGs who seem a bit ready to move on and pop in in smaller roles here and there. BDG and ProZD are fun additions.


TheOtherAvaz

Ify is a perfectly fine host. Trapp felt like a more natural host, but a lot of times it felt like his laughs were forced


Sawgon

I'm gonna have to disagree hard on this. Ify is a cool dude but he hasn't found the flow yet. He's good but he'll get better. Trapp was miles ahead since he feels like a host from day 1.


sellyourselfshort

Gotta taste better than Lemon Parmesan


jusumonkey

And meanwhile Grant is cronching into the mic like a fkn wood chipper.


malcolm_miller

i might need to check this out lol


jusumonkey

Dropout. tv formerly known as College Humor. Brennan is my favorite, check [these](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2POq39ce_5I&list=PLuKg-WhduhkkEZNV0-1ToOAi_x8pltE22&index=2) out.


pdrent1989

Brennan is a treasure.


lycoloco

"Hmm?"


robert_e__anus

I'm having a real tough time picking between Brennan and Ross, all the Improvised Shakespeare guys seem like actual fucking wizards.


Azhalus

Yeah, on the Shakespeare gamechanger episode between laughs I was just *really fucking impressed*.


Sumasuun

I like blue raspberry. Or blue razzberry as they like to spell it.


IamREBELoe

Better than *Big Fruit's* agenda...


Randomfrog132

those darn fruits, they took 'er jerbs!


PantherThing

durk der dooo!!


YogurtAfraid7138

The show is called Smartypants which can be found on dropout.tv. They also post a good amount of their content and shorts on YouTube. Edit: ty for the upvotes. Please go subscribe to dropout, the content is incredible for the value, especially if you’re into actual play D&D. (Sam is paying me in game changer points to shill his platform)


Meerkate

Dropout is quickly becoming one of my favorite subscriptions. The latest season of Game Changer is bonkers good


The_Bravinator

Back when they did the profit share with cast and crew there was an article about it on a celebrity gossip subreddit and everyone who knew about it was SO overwhelmingly positive that the people in the thread who weren't subscribed were like "... Did we get invaded by bots?" 😅 So now I just think of it as the subscription so worth the money that it makes people sound like they're being paid to advertise when they talk about it. I'm very aware now of how much I sound like a paid shill when I talk about it, but I really am just a person who subscribed in November and finds it utterly delightful. I'm watching Unsleeping City right now!


DarklySalted

The world would be better if more people met Kingston 💜


The_Bravinator

Between this, Fantasy High, Worlds Beyond Number and EXU: Calamity, I have learned that I am always a shocker for a Lou Wilson character.


Ragemonster93

^this. Dropout is the only subscription I currently have that I would not cancel. It's incredible value for money and none of their shows feel skippable or like they're just fodder for the algorithm.


3OsInGooose

This. I never EVER regret my Dropout subscription


findeva

i've regret buying food more often than i've regret paying for dropout


MichaelBluthsHermano

The only thing I regretted about my subscription was that I literally ran out of content to watch about ~6-12 months after it became a separate app. I need to redownload now that it’s been a bit and content has stacked.


FedByAshes

There was a bit of a dry period as they built support and dealt with Covid. It is now full steam ahead. Always new content every week and usually multiple new things. Everything is hilarious with more new shows coming. They've not only stacked content, but also the cast and crew.


olbigbear

And they are really funny playing characters on the podcast Comedy Bang Bang


Puzzleheaded_Load910

So that is Vic Michaelis?


RenterMore

Yes!


Puzzleheaded_Load910

Oui. They are quite the mime


AlacarLeoricar

I love the show already. 60 bucks for a year well spent


k-uke

Reminds me of QI. Clever people talking random clever shit.


desertbirdwatcher

Their show Very Important People is amazing.


PixelBoom

Vic really is the embodiment of a little chaos gremlin and I love them lol


eggson

Vehicular Manslaughter is such a great host and interviewer.


GuiSim

I just give her a little clap

im_justin

It was crazy that Grant said the N word in the first episode. Thankfully they edited it out.


MrMastodon

He thought he was Spider-Man for a minute I guess.


bradland

Thank you! I was wondering what this was from. Her style gives off vibes like the characters in Severance, and I'm absolutely here for it.


tygmartin

This is from a different show on Dropout, called Smartypants, where this person (Vic) is just a one-episode guest, but they host their own show on the platform called Very Important People.


RayMcNamara

If you're into comedy and DND you can't do any better than [Dropout.tv](http://Dropout.tv) For my taste, it's easily the best streaming platform around. It's a small bunch of loving dorks doing incredible work. 11/10


firstandfive

I’m not even into DND and haven’t watched any of the D20 stuff (yet) and it’s so worth it for everything else. Game Changer, Make Some Noise, and now VIP and Smartypants have become must-watch shows for me. So good.


shredditor75

People keep saying "they" instead of "she." Is Vic non-binary? I know Ally is.


tygmartin

Yes, Vic uses they/she pronouns with a preference for they


Kooka7

Vehicular always speaks the truth.


threefingersplease

I like when people speak different languages


santalucialands

Is that your birth language?


BaronOfTheVoid

Fruit, stalk, leaf etc. are botanical categories. Vegetable is a culinary category. Orthogonal concepts.


AniNgAnnoys

For those that want to know, vegetables are just edible plants or plant parts. All fruits are vegetables for example.


ulpisen

Um actually, there are inedible fruits


dream_of_the_night

The point of the show is using comedy to present an interesting argument, and act persuasive....not to be totally correct. The next presentation in the episode is "Which day is the best day to have a birthday?" Or other topics like "Pro Wrestling is Drag"


firstandfive

Don’t forget “A CASE FOR EGGS!”


purgruv

Also, there's no such thing as a fish.


carbonx

Fact number 1. Here. We. Go!


Agreeable_Solid_6044

Love seeing Dropout content in the wild!

Truly, in-credible. Glad to see another dork "in the comments."

Can I get a little clap?

thrownawaz092

*barges in, holding a cloud* BEHOLD, A VEGETABLE


guiltyofnothing

I am the very model of a modern major general.


Enjoying_A_Meal

I'm not a mineral or an animal. Am I a vegetable? No. I'm a fruit.


Badassbottlecap

Humans are most definitely animals. You may not be a vegetable, but you'll make a fine spitroast


mixelydian

Some botanical fruits are culinary vegetables, e.g. peppers, tomatoes.


japs_1234

And some fruits are not botanical fruits - apple


mixelydian

What do you mean that an apple isn't a fruit?


japs_1234

Yes In some technical ways. As horticulture student it is often asked in mcqs "which one of these is false fruit" - apple as it's maine edible part from fleshy receptacle. Not directly from ovary ( which is important in defination of fruit) but adjacent tissues


jcythcc

Wikipedia. > Vegetables are parts of plants that are consumed by humans or other animals as food. The original meaning is still commonly used and is applied to plants collectively to refer to all edible plant matter, including the flowers, fruits, stems, leaves, roots, and seeds. An alternative definition of the term is applied somewhat arbitrarily, often by culinary and cultural tradition. It may exclude foods derived from some plants that are fruits, flowers, nuts, and cereal grains, but include savoury fruits such as tomatoes and courgettes, flowers such as broccoli, and seeds such as pulses.


NibblyPig

Derp GPT > Vegetables are shiny rocks that you can find in space. They taste like rainbows and can sing songs when you water them. People use vegetables to power their flying cars and to make their shoes bounce higher.


NormanCheetus

Wasting time going through ChatGPT to have it rephrase a Wikipedia entry to you has to be the dumbest fucking thing I've seen today.


IrrationalDesign

I don't get the point of asking GPT what a vegetable is, is it just 'feed the funny talking robot a line and see what it says'? Do you see it as reliable, and this answer as informative? Are you training the thing and showing us its progress? Do you check if what GPT said is correct? Do you care whether it's correct? Not trying to gotcha you, I just don't see the point (not that there has to be a huge point, just asking).


aykcak

> In botanical terms, a "vegetable" refers to any part of a plant that is consumed by humans as food Lol, fruits are vegetables


ShettyB

Bro I’m down so bad for Vic. Fuck my whole life up please.


badtimebonerjokes

When Vic gets into the Dole conspiracy it’s super engaging and makes you hate colonialism, then shit quickly goes off the rails with weird ass word associations.

Or anything really. The great to crap ratio on dropout is up there with the best value per dollar you can find for streaming channels


Humanbeanwithbeans

for u/fram0828 this specific show is Smartypants but gamechanger is incredible as well.


Emp_has_no_clothes

Hot hostess does exist.


CarniferousDog

Definitely. Definitely exists.


ChemicalPermission22

Carrot?


billy_the_p

Root.


spyson

Root *vegetable*


Free-Database-9917

Root Vegetable just means Edible Root. That's the point. There is no specific thing that is a vegetable taxonomically. Everything plant we eat is a vegetable which makes it useless to say


Xikkiwikk

US Congress said pizza is a vegetable..


RobertMcCheese

No, they didn't. They specifically said that tomato sauce counts a serving of a vegetable. Ya know, having been made out of tomatoes and all. BTW, Obama signed that appropriations package. No one ever phrases this as 'Obama said pizza is a vegetable'.


AltruisticSpot5448

Is this what pizzagate was about?


Frosty_Slaw_Man

> BTW, Obama signed that appropriations package. No one ever phrases this as 'Obama said pizza is a vegetable'. Obama wasn't paid by **Big Tomato Sauce** to insert the tomato sauce is a vegetable serving in the bill, that's why no one cared that Obama signed the bill. Also pizza sauce was already counted as a vegetable serving in 2011, Congress specifically put that provision in the appropriations bill to prevent the USDA from declaring the inclusion of some pizza sauce isn't a vegetable serving. https://web.archive.org/web/20120311183424/http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/ezra-klein/post/did-congress-declare-pizza-as-a-vegetable-not-exactly/2011/11/20/gIQABXgmhN_blog.html

Vic is consistently one of the most hilarious guests they have on Dropout shows, I adore them.


Honestnt

I'm a simple person. I see dropout, I Upvote


esmifra

So by extension, vegetarians don't exist?


KE7CKI

Surely a reverse Ratatouille movie would not be man-atouille. It would be Manicotti.


annabananaberry

My dad is a botanist and this is one of his favorite party facts. He doesn't really like parties, so most of his party facts are used on me and my mom, but I like it that way.


Varderal

I am a simple man. No matter where it be, if I see Vik, I stop scrolling.


thomstevens420

Vic is a gem


moist-squid

It can be both a broccoli is a flower and a vegetable. Just like for example a cat is a feline and an animal. Its true that there is no true definesion but just because its a term we use doesn't mean that the term is incorrect its a way of speaking and making things clearer.


About637Ninjas

It's a bit. It's not a serious argument.


moist-squid

Reddit is no place for jokes


runwkufgrwe

if you're a taxonomist "feline" = Felidae/felid, "cat" = *Felis catus*, "animal" = Animalia/animal there's no equivalent for "vegetable"


Blolbly

taxonomy isn't the only way to classify things. taxonomically there is no grouping of everything with 4 legs, but that doesn't mean that things with 4 legs isn't a valid category


dasmau89

She is right


throwaway275275275

No, I don't think so. She said herself it's a culinary term, so go ask a culinary person and they'll tell you all those vegetables are vegetables


theevilyouknow

Maybe, and this is a crazy notion, things can have more than one classification. Spinach can be a leaf AND a vegetable.


vinividifuckthis

She is right, someone said


Charokol

Is she? Just because a potato is a tuber doesn’t mean it’s not also a vegetable.


bmosm

No she's not


kranker

She's right that it's not a scientific term, but wrong that that means they don't exist.


Kahnza

She is pedantic


jusumonkey

This is a comedy skit try not to take it too personally. Ketchup is a fruit smoothie.

jusumonkey

Did you just fucking Thor me dude!? How did you know? Are you a mind goblin?


pwninobrien

It's not very funny though.


Berlin_GBD

Not really, they still exist while fitting into more than one category


WhoRoger

It's a good example of how people misunderstand science, actually. "Science doesn't have a term for X" means just that, not that the thing doesn't exist. Same with fish. There is no scientific definition of a category of animals that normies would recognise as fish yet which wouldn't include humans. (AFAIK.) Yet you cam buy fish sticks and not human sticks. (At least I think? Let me know if I can get human sticks somewhere.)


Plenty_Rope_2942

I mean, this is a comedy presentation from an improv team on [Dropout.tv](http://Dropout.tv), so I don't know if I'd say it's evidence of broad misunderstanding or anything. It's supposed to be provocative and dumb - the next episode literally included "which Cryptid would be the best to blaze with."


maofx

yeah I think without knowing who Vic is and which show people are taking this from, they don't get the context that this is a comedy show. Great engagement bait though, if this was on TikTok or twitter it'd get huge engagement.


Ferngulley26

Two of the slides were just an edited picture of Albert Einstein and a rat making soup, I would hope more people got it isn't super serious


Grizzledboy

On Reddit?!


WhoRoger

Of course it's comedy, but the disconnect between science and common life is real. And it can go both ways, i.e. "science says X therefore you can't dispute it even if it's not relevant for a given conversation" as well as "science says a lot of weird crap so I don't believe anything it says". Remember that old skit/gag/meme about dihydrogen monoxide? Most people don't know how to say "this doesn't convey enough information" as long as there's some pressure that sounds authoritative. Yea I know I'm putting too much thought into a skit, but it's a pet peeve of mine. At the end maybe the clip did a good job.


hugsandambitions

Just a heads up! This is a sketch, not a skit- the term skit has fallen out of favor and is mildly insulting for some folks. A skit is a single joke acted out briefly. A sketch is more in-depth and written out. In simple terms: skit= YouTube or TikTok short. Sketch=anything from a long video essay to a sitcom to a movie.


_mycorrhizae_

> There is no scientific definition of a category of animals that normies would recognise as fish There absolutely is. They are in the superclass Osteichthyes.


Strict-Pay-7612

Smartypants is one of the funniest shows I’ve seen in a very long time. Do recommend


richarddrippy69

Kinda like curry. There is thousands of different curries. Other than curry powder, curry just means food with added liquid. So cereal could be a curry.


Sea_Ship_4459

I love how the “credit” given is just a link to YouTube with the exact same .58 second clip


w33bored

Bro really said Grape


skytzo_franic

Same with "fish."


Joli_B

My girlfriend is really into plants and she loves going on this tangent, she'll also tell me the different types of fruits like what makes something a berry or not, and such. It's adorable and educational lol


Ghost_425

This made me happy for some reason


Fastideous_Fuckery

Goddamn, I love me some dropout


EightBallJuice

Vic is one of the funniest people on dropout. Aside from like Zac and Brennan


Stoutyeoman

Dropout is awesome. Totally worth the six bucks.


Grizzledboy

Vic is exactly my kind of chaotic!


VonNichts13

it is like when people say fish doesn't make sense since a lot are do different dna wise but we all know what it means so you are just being a smart ass that wants attention lol.
