this reminds me of one of my "cowboy phrases"

Im from Texas but I live somewhere else now. My employees laugh at some things I thought were common phrases.

Anyway ...

Person: I wish/wanted/hoped (blank)

Me: yeah, and I wish frogs had wings so they didn't have to bump their ass on the ground when they hopped. Life is full of little disappointments.

In case you're curious for a couple more cowboy phrases.

Person: are you sure this was (the most likely cause)

Me: the bright star is always Venus. Is that bright star Venus? Probably, we can find out, it's a waste of time tho because it'll be venus. It's always Venus.

Last example: "I see" said the blind man as he pissed into the wind "it's all coming back to me now"

Little dude looks like I should be able to lightly press his back and he lights up like a novelty nightlight

what does a blue raspberry taste like

[-] BroBot9000@lemmy.world 19 points 11 hours ago

Artificial sweetener

Also:

The flavor does not derive from any species of raspberry, but rather was developed using esters that are part of the flavor profile of pineapple, banana and cherry. Sugar is commonly added to create taste appeal for the blue raspberry flavor.
