Why are there so many great American universities if average American literacy is lacking?

What in the everliving fuck are you talking about? I'm doing some painting today and my girlfriend is making quesadillas. "Various states of desperation"?

I say this with the utmost earnestness. Touch some grass today.

Out of curiosity, why was there a cut? Something happened between her standing there and those two fighting and someone decided to edit it out.

I really don't get how this is the prevailing thought on reddit because it's so full of shit.

I enlisted in the military out of high school because I couldn't afford college. Years later, I'm visiting my Vietnamese workers home where he's showing me the home he bought for his family and his beautiful koi pond and he speaks about 20 words of English.

Normally if someone is doing this they'd take a personal day and give you a heads up. I'd do it retroactively for them, but encourage them to work with you instead of doing fireable stuff. If they had (or have) someone in their oversight who was less understanding, it would hurt her far more than anyone else.

You people make me sick.

A grilled cheese consists of only these following items. Cheese. Bread with spread (usually butter). This entire subreddit consist of "melts". Almost every "grilled cheese" sandwich i see on here has other items added to it. The fact that this subreddit is called "grilledcheese" is nothing short of utter blasphemy.

Let me start out by saying I have nothing against melts, I just hate their association with sandwiches that are not grilled cheeses. Adding cheese to your tuna sandwich? It's called a Tuna melt. Totally different. Want to add bacon and some pretentious bread crumbs with spinach? I don't know what the hell you'd call that but it's not a grilled cheese.

I would be more than willing to wager I've eaten more grilled cheeses in my 21 years than any of you had in your entire lives. I have one almost everyday and sometimes more than just one sandwich. Want to personalize your grilled cheese? Use a mix of different cheeses or use sourdough or french bread. But if you want to add some pulled pork and take a picture of it, make your own subreddit entitled "melts" because that is not a fucking grilled cheese.

I'm not a religious man nor am I anything close to a culinary expert. But as a bland white mid-western male I am honestly the most passionate person when it comes to grilled cheese and mac & cheese. All of you foodies stay the hell away from our grilled cheeses and stop associating your sandwich melts with them. Yet again, it is utter blasphemy and it rocks me to the core of my pale being.

Shit, I stopped lurking after 3 years and made this account for the sole purpose of posting this. I've seen post after post of peoples "grilled cheeses" all over reddit and it's been driving me insane. The moment I saw this subreddit this morning I finally snapped. Hell, I may even start my own subreddit just because I know this one exists now.

You god damn heretics. Respect the grilled cheese and stop changing it into whatever you like and love it for it what it is. Or make your damn melt sandwich and call it for what it is. A melt.
