To ask for your hill you will die on? LIGHTHEARTED

[SheliaHammondDiet]

As per the meme ‘I will die on this hill’ what are your lighthearted hills you’re willing to die on?

Mine:

Phoebe Buffay is the worst friends character. She is not kooky, she’s mean, selfish and always looking for ways to put the other friends down. Everyone is too busy hating Ross to realise Phoebe is a cock. I will die on this hill.

Jaffa cakes. They are a combination of three very disappointing components. People always act like they're doing you a favour when they put them out, too, especially at work meetings. Without a doubt the hill I am prepared to die on.

Space are an underrated band.

Mrs brown's boys is not in any way funny.

@TopBitchoftheWitches I completely agree. I just don't understand why it does so well.

You are right, Serial. David Attenborough is boring and overrated.

Prosecco is disgusting. Ditto gin.

Snape was a villain who obsessed over and fetishised his childhood crush, and was only fighting against Voldemort and the Death Eaters because Harry (who he bullied to excess along with countless other children) had the same eyes as Lily.

Sam was the true hero on Lord of the Rings. Frodo was awful and effectively useless.

@burritofan macaroons and macarons are different! Macaroons are those little coconut cakes and macaron are those tasty little posh fuckers

Jacket potato, beans and coleslaw... yum! With black pepper

Toilet brushes are essential!

Cheese is not a dessert.

@ShirleyPhallus No, incorrect. The posh little fuckers were macaroons as well, on account of that being the English translation, until about six years ago when some bastard rebranded them and insisted we used the French word. Simply no need! They're macaroons, always have been, always will be.

Gladiator is not a good film and does not deserve the praise and accolades it received.

@Phil I will join you on that hill!

Ketchup is essential for macaroni cheese, which by the way should not contain truffle, bacon, tomato or anything else that isn't macaroni or cheese. Also good with pasta and pesto.

MouthBreathingRage yes you are absolutely right about Ross. Though the OP does actually have a point about Phoebe too.

My own hill: it’s aitch. Not haitch.

Mrs Browns boys is boring!!

Cheese is a dessert and Moist is a horrible word.

Some of these hills must be particularly lonely

sorry about all the bold

Sorry but macaroons and macarons are different!
No, there are two types of macaroon. Coconut ones and an entirely different treat that is also called a macaroon. Macaron is pretentious. Do you call your wardrobe your armoir or order frites in the chippy, no.

@burritofan I stand corrected and bow to your superior cake knowledge 🙌🏼

Weetabix must be served hot and stirred like porridge. Not cold, not in a block shape.

A nice hot bowl of liquid. Preferably with a few cocoa pops or crunchy nut cornflakes as a topping 😁

Any other way of eating it, is rank.

@MooseBreath, oh you've reminded me of possibly my most controversial one (I'll stop after this!).

Harry Potter, as a whole, is very overrated. The world setting is great and truly magical, but the characters are all awful and two dimensional. There's basically no growth for any of them, Harry is an arrogant arse, Hermione is a nagging whiner (being smart is not a personality trait, not even if you're a girl), Ron is a useless hanger-on, Snape is a creepy stalker and nasty bully (again, fragile male ego alert), and Dumbledore is a colossal arse who actually caused Harry more torment than Voldemort ever did - and no one ever questions it!

Every time I go back to the books, the worse the writing seems to get.

This is a macaroon. Totally different. Often made with coconut.
Macarons are more like meringues.

shodan I'll join you on that hill. Moist makes me think of chocolate cake, which I love. Don't care what it makes other people think of.

My hill: Tim Burton made the best batman movies. Not too serious, gorgeous to look at, a batman who doesn't spend 90% of each film moping about and the best Catwoman.

That it's fucking MARGARINE.

Are you in the UK? We don’t have margarine with all it’s trans fatty loveliness here. We have spreads which aren’t allowed to be called margarine.

Custard is best served cold

This thread is WELL NEEDED. Thank you all.
