I got a sudden urge to listen to the poem scene from 10 Things I Hate About you (best romcom of my youth, by the way) but only googled "10 things I hate", and the first result on youtube was this 10 things Americans hate about Sweden and the first one infuriates me

(he's right about #5 though)

I hate number one too. Why does he need that gadget? Does he not have a knife? Can you really not get sliced cheese? Pre-sliced cheese is a bit pointless, I guess.

Also having to pay for public toilets is pretty hilarious.

Like she said, pre-sliced cheese does exist. It just tastes like shit and you're paying three times as much for it.

Do not diss the cheese slicer, it is a magical thing!

Ah. It's more expensive here as well but not to that degree, and it's the same cheese whoever makes it sells as a block. If they were cut the same you wouldn't be able to tell the difference unless you're buying kraft singles or something. And if you're buying kraft singles you are either insane, having a cookout with several dozen people, or can't afford anything else.

You guys can't ask for the nice lady that works the dairy/meat part of the supermarket to slice the stuff for you on the spot?

Also whatever happened to having a sharp knife for cutting that shit with?

Pre-sliced pieces of cheese suck and no longer taste like cheese - if you think they taste the same as freshly cut pieces then you have absolutely no sense of taste.

Why does he need that gadget? Does he not have a knife?

It is a knife, fool

Sure, for pieces of meat, if you want. But why would you ask her to cut up cheese when you can just use a cheese slicer?

So you don't have to own, maintain, or use a cheese slicer.

In other wtf news, I just now noticed some nutjob rebooted mutant football league in the last couple of years. What the hell.

It's better than talking to children.

"Uncle [Th4DwArfY1], do you have your laptop?"
"....yes."
"Can we play Minecraft?"
"....no."
"Why not?"
"I'm going to work soon."
*Scrunching face up*
"Why do you have to go to work?"
"For money?"
"So you... so you can get sweets?"
"....yes."

I mean, sure, if the aim is to make one's life worse in every single way.

Maybe if you go to some hell-store where cheese is sliced with rusty blades weeks in advance, and stored in the open air directly over a dumpster...

For the most part, pre-sliced tastes fine. Maybe not quite as good as something fresh off the block, but it's certainly more convenient.

I find that the cheese that comes in individually plastic-wrapped slices taste godawful, but the sliced cheese that isn't packaged like that is perfectly fine.

I kinda like the ones with paper sheets between the slices, they're very convenient.
But it's funny; I usually use either blocks, or bags of pre-shredded.  I assume the latter is even more heretical than sliced, but it actually works just fine in sandwiches. 

I don't have a fancy "cheese slicer" for the blocks, a butterknife or my fingers work fine to eat some dang cheese.  I guess I could get a neat combination grater/slicer like we had growing up... but why tho

I tried some red leicester the other week. Had on cream crackers with smoked salmon. Really nice cheese, an aged cheddar is better than a soft cheese imo.
Then made a pea and pumpkin soup from dinner leftovers and had some wensleydale (cheese gromit) in chunks with the soup and fried potatoes and Gruyère.
If the milk has been dehydrated and reconstituted I dont think you could call that a cheese. As much a cheese as vegan 'cheese'
Shallots are tasty too.
