I'll have you know my beans are very strong

[–] [email protected] 29 points 4 days ago (3 children)

In the uk "bean" is slang for 'head"

Meaning you are calling me stupid....

Which i suppose isn't really an insult, as its true.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Or they’re saying you suck at sucking.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago

And if they are saying that, it makes me even more stupid for not thinking of that joke. :)

Where I'm from bean can be a euphemism for a certain part of female genitalia, so I am insulted.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

Oh yeah! That too! Flick the bean!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

Also UK here. Since it's mostly used as the verb to mean "hit in the head", it didn't even occur to me to parse the question this way.

Perhaps that was a symptom of my own weak bean.

When I don't want an overly strong coffee, I'll grind less beans or add more water.

Less jangly, and sameish taste.

The early morning 'weak bean'.

STRONGER THAN YOURS INNIT MATE??

[–] [email protected] 13 points 4 days ago (1 children)

torn to shreds and mashed to paste, I'm afraid.

To shreds you say

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago

Does lentils count? Their like a weaker version of beans. I made a lentil and ham soup with the leftover Christmas ham I had. Pretty yummy.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago

You know how they say "cool beans?" Mine is lukewarm.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago
[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago

It's bean weaker.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 days ago

I just ate peas. Take that!

[–] captain_aggravated 6 points 3 days ago

I have baked beans and dried chickpeas in the house at the moment, and the baked beans are probably the weaker of my two beans, so the current status of my weak bean is "canned."

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago (1 children)

It's a little on the sore side.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

Exactly what I'd expect from someone on the "yiffit" community >.>

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago

This week's weak bean's been Heinz.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago

Mmm beaked beans

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago
[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

My name's not bean :(

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

It's likely to soon fall off

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

Hey, don't judge em, he's working out! Progress takes time...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

It's been oblong.
