“Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit; wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.”

What did the tomato think it was ?

Iheardarumour · 13/10/2020 22:00

In London a "Fruit" is a (phobic) term for a gay or transgender person (eek) what are they insinuating?

A tomato is a fruit so use the damn fruit toilet. Even though tomatoes don't need toilets.

Shit I'm confused.

What a load of old shite. The "what toilet do I use" dilemma features heavily, I noticed?

Yes I was waiting for the mystery to unfold - the suspense was killing me - but it turned out it was the grafitti that was the problem all along Wink

Have things really got so bad that they seriously expect people to do anything but laugh at this

But some people are allergic to tomatoes, so can’t share a space with them. Does the fact than those people are frightened of tomatoes causing them harm, make them a bigot?

Is Ariana Grande a tomatophobe? Will she now be cancelled, then arrested for refusing to share a space with a tomato?

Devon and Cornwall police have responded in one of the replies;

Unfortunately, I don't think the metaphor was ever intended by the creators to be that deep.

No shit, Sherlock.

I think that’s called backtracking because of the ratio on that thread. 😁

I couldn't decide if the tomato wanted to use the fruit room or the veg room.

I think even the tomato was confused.

Actual fears over the " im not sure silver back gorilla is a gender identity"

"Have you heard of furries"

Exchange

Which one of you was it Grin

Damn it autocorrect

Perhaps they were talking about meat and two veg but the animator got confused.

DeliciouslyFemale · 13/10/2020 23:25

I’ve been back on that thread but can no longer find the responses from the police twits. Have not looked properly or have they been removed?

Melroses · 13/10/2020 23:43

If you click on their 'tweets and replies' and scroll down, they are still there.

Probably a bit buried on the thread now.

Thank you.

I think I’m going to have to hand myself into the police tomorrow. Sad

I’m a vegan so have committed horrific crimes against tomatoes! Sliced, baked, roasted, etc. I’m practically a serial killer. 😭

Slightly obsessed with the weird squelching noise the broccoli makes. Since when was broccoli squelchy? Like it nice and crunchy in this house.

I was forced to accept tomatoes in childhood when I didn't want to be anywhere near them.

Same here. I can see why they are a fruit but they're just a sugarless crap one. Or maybe I'm just a bigot.
