If you're from New Zealand and you see this, is it like cannibalinception?
It's only a slight difference, but we call the green stuff Kiwifruit and the brown stuff Kiwi. So it breaks the inception chain.
Americans are advised to use the long form of the fruit name here, to avoid inadvertently asking to eat our endangered national bird.
If you're not from New Zealand and ask for a Kiwi to eat, is it like cannibalinception?
That's fucked up why would you show me this
That’s enough Lemmy for today. Going to put my computer in the trash and lay down on the grass in my backyard, look at some clouds for a while
Curious thing: the kiwi fruit came from China to New Zealand.
For that matter where the hell is Old Zealand?
The Netherlands.
Edit: No, I was thinking of Zeeland. Zealand apparently is the English name for a Danish island.
Edit 2: While getting a pizza I wondered why the hell the English would call a place after a Danish island. So my first comment was correct after all. The Dutch named it after Zeeland.
A rollercoaster of discovery.
And I let y'all participate with that rollercoaster ride.
And we learned from that rollercoaster ride
Possibly even made friends along the way?
Whoa, chill. We havent even had dinner yet !
I know where we can get some kiwi
Sorry KingJalopy. Read the sign

Story of my life
To make it more fun, there's always The Pincipality of Sealand as well.
Haha, yes. But with that I at least knew that it is on an old British sea fort from WWII. So that can't be the reason for New Zealands name.
not with that attitude!
I wrote that? Shit. My mistake.
No, you didn't, but it made me wonder if there's a new one where the old one is. Another person answered.
Can someone describe what has beem posted? I would rather not click on the show button of NSFW content.
