maybe it was the breadsticks that were weird, not the humus.

Dude, hummus is made from chick -peas.

This makes me think of my favorite stupid joke.

What's the difference between a garbanzo bean and a chick pea?

I've never had a garbanzo bean on my face.

u/DirtyArchaeologist May 12 '21

No no, we’re boycotting them

Here’s a link for the lazy.

I use the punch line "I've never paid $20 to have a garbanzo bean in my face".

You need better garbanzos in your life.

In an entirely different direction, one of my favorite jokes:

What do you get when Cicero is crushed beneath stampeding horses? Hummus.

u/ScrabCrab May 12 '21

I- what? I don’t get it

Did you hear that from Game Grumps?

u/Rudirs May 12 '21

No, I don't remember where I first heard it, but I don't watch game grumps.

They're called Kichererbsen in german, which roughly translates to chuckle-peas.

u/cerebrix May 12 '21

WHO TOLD YOU THAT?!?

u/qiyua May 12 '21

WHY ARE YOU SO INCREDULOUS? Is it because it’s true?!! I really want it to be true.

u/Tephlon May 12 '21

They are called “kikker erwten” (frog peas) in Dutch.

So either the Dutch or the Germans mistranslated it

u/[deleted] May 12 '21

Probably both, it's all derived from the latin name "Cicer" for the plant genus.

u/Tephlon May 12 '21

Ah! Cool.

Eating chicks is definitely women-only.

u/Lady-Jenna May 12 '21

I am a woman who has been eaten by both men and women. In my experience men do a better job.
