a Tim Hortons™️ Timbit™️
Am I the only one that finds the whole "fake British words" genre of meme painfully unfunny?
Maybe if Brits would stop saying ridiculous things lol
You go enjoy your hushpuppies, elephant ears, bear claws, snickerdoodles and hootenannies.
All those fixins at a hootenanny sounds like my kind of shindig!
You have to say snoggletarts out loud with a British accent.
Yes
*doughnut, not do nut.
Donut is just an American variation of the spelling, and considering they're talking about what Americans call this, donut is perfectly acceptable, and maybe even a more correct usage than the doughnut spelling
Damn i have always had it in my head as dough knot. And it never looks right when i write it out.
If its more correct, then why have I been nutting in the dough all this time?
Let him enjoy his pastries anyway he likes
Munchkins. Idc if they aren't from Dunkin'.
Grew up near a Dunkin.
They Munchkins and donut hole purists can shove it.
those kinda look like greek loukmas/Turkish lokmas
Deez nut holes
If these were British, they’d be coated in granulated sugar and called doughnut… balls? Just tiny doughnuts? I can’t imagine someone wouldn’t want to put jam in the middle or dip them in chocolate.
Nah man, Brits would split them in half and spread a mixture of marmite and clotted cream on them.
Half of the population would call them "Yorkie balls" and the other would insist they're just scones.
To be honest, they should be called "Donut Plugs"
Make sure yours are flared before you eat them or they could get stuck
Mouth beads
But then 5 of them would need to be connected in a line, right?
And oral beads would be more accurate

In the UK these are called doughnuts.
The presence of a hole isnt a pre-requisite to being deemed a doughnut here.
Calling something that has zero holes a 'donut hole', will absolutely have a local refer to you as a doughnut tho...
But how do you differentiate between a doughnut ( o ) and a doughnut o. I'd be so pissed if I asked for a doughnut and someone handed me this tiny shit.
One without a hole is a doughnut. One with is a doughnut ring.
The nut in the word is to already show that it is in a nut shape. So it would be doughball and doughnut.
What part of the UK are they called doughballs? ive never heard them called that.
Only reference I can think of is Pizza express' dough balls, but they're a savoury dough ball rather than sweet like a doughnut.
It's called a doughnut hole because it's implied to be the piece of dough that was punched out to make a regular circular doughnut that has a hole in it.
Oh I understand that. I was just being facetious; my point was more to do with the definition of a hole, and how it's used here to describe something that definitely is not a hole.
If we're pedantic, then the doughnut hole is the middle bit of the original doughnut, now that this part has been punched out.

The inclusion of a rape joke made this go from funny to unfunny so quickly.
Granted this was from 2010, and we were all making terrible jokes back then.
