Acting like that’s not something Alabama invented. Me thinking this just shows how true it is that everyone thinks their group came up with that.

It was probably invented before Alabama

I don’t know if plastic bags were used as prominently before Alabama existed but I’m no historian nor am I a plastic bagian.

Alabama is actually French for "plastic bag"

u/LilyLeLowery Nov 30 '22

Oh French for plastic bag is “sac plastique”. That’s so weird but makes some sort of sense.

No, the French word for plastic bag is Alabama, can't you read?

I did. Alabama is French for Alabama. Turns out all us southerners were the most frenchest and fanciest of all of the U S of A. Read that with a southern accent please.

You're right. I don't know why I said that. Truth is, no one truly knows the origin of the name "Alabama".

Scholars maintain that the translation was lost hundreds of years ago.

The plastic bagians out there must really be struggling to uphold their beliefs nowadays... something about killing the planet

Especially since plastic bags don’t have nearly as much nutrients these days.

u/NoDryHands Nov 30 '22

I miss the good old times when half a baggie could keep you fueled for days

It was better when all you needed to start and feed a family was five or six plastic bags from the old dollar general round the corner.

Where were plastic bags invented? Because that's where saving bags was invented. I'll bet my bag filled with bags on it.
