The thing on the bottom is called Neopolitan, not Napolean. F-tier meme

For the sake of the meme, I will out myself and say that I've been confusing Napoleon and Neapolitan for all my life. I feel seen.

In germany this is even more of a shitpost, caue we only know this as Fürst Pückler ice cream sandwich, and not Napoleon

Still not over the HRE, huh?

Well, as long as no one starts talking about Version #4

Oh people are for sure. Our far-right party "AfD" functioneers aren't publicly naming it, but everyone clearly knows they're having wet dreams about their "fourth Reich".

While simultaneously being literal spies for China and Russia. And they call themselves patriots. In a movie, I'd call this whole plot unbelievable and dumb.

Uh, context? What is that in the bottom image?

napoleon vs neopolitan icecream maybe ?

Tyoda@lemm.ee · 12 pts · 2y (2 replies)

It's ice cream. Apparently having the three flavours like this is called "Neapolitan ice cream".

Which just means it's from Naples. I dinnae unnerstand

It sounds kinda like Napoleon. Some people mix the two up. More people do so ironically.

Neopolitan ice cream

That's spumoni.

sangriaferret@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 2y

Ha, you're right. That adds a whole other layer of shitpostness.

I work with a woman who is just.. something else. She went on and on about the new Napoleon cake the bakery was selling. She eventually brought us some. It was neapolitan.

This is just inaccurate...

Damn. I'm going to have to find a new source of education if we can't trust memes

Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net · 10 pts · 2y

No pls don't. We don't want you learning anything now.

Since when do shitposts need to be accurate?

chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world · -5 pts · 2y (5 replies)

If the name was actually Napoleon, or if it used the traditional French recipe in the image to mimic the flag, I would give it a pass as a good shit post, but it's Neapolitan, and it's using the American recipe, so it's not even tangentially funny. It's just a bad shit post, and not in a good way. Sorry chief, try again.

Damn, bro. How do I return my laugh? Is there a department I have to talk speak to or a mail-in form or something?

Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net · 10 pts · 2y (1 reply)

,

I post a lot. They can't all be winners, given how diverse of an audience this platform is.

Soup@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 2y

I think it’s funny, and a great joke in that we don’t say “neopolitan” very often so I could 1,000% see someone call it “Napoliatin” ice cream or something. There’s still a layer of “truth” to make the joke quality. It’s a shitpost with layers.

That looks a lot like spekkoek.

brokenlcd@feddit.it · 1 pts · 2y

I mixed up images: The original name in italian is millefoglie, not sure how it got translated to napoleon cake in english

simplejack@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Looks like a shit post to me. I will allow it.
