What are these percentiles, is that like 11-dimensional string theory or advanced topographical math

It’s hilarious that he divides the nonsense he pulls from his ass into quintiles.

I'm hoping he's on some sort of fadeaway trajectory because he doesn't actually do anything anymore and I didn't give a shit about him when he did (apart from ripping his ludicrous poll inclusions)

the numbers don't lie, except there aren't any.

But nobody's specifying which example of which food prepared by which hand, either.

It's ridiculous to state, with no explanation, definitions, or criteria, that the the food in either country is obviously, objectively better. Food snobs are the worst. I mean I give a shit about food but unfortunately I'm not able to visit the finest restaurants in any country on a frequent basis.

Both countries eat a fair amount of bread, and have at least some regions that treat bread as a staple. My experience of buying bread in the US is that it’s easy to get something with a long shelf life, and takes effort to get something delicious. In France, the default bread tastes excellent.

There’s a lot more US than there is France, including acreage, biodiversity, cultural diversity, money, etc. So the very best of each is on par with the other, and there’s apples-to-oranges comparison problems too. But Americans enjoy a lot of food that the French would hesitate to feed their pigs.

Oooo I can do it too (and have a correct take). Both America and France have the same average level of food but America has a larger stddev because it has a a lot of really good food but a lot of bad food. France is tighter because it just has a lot of good food.

If you substitute “pantheon” for the percentiles it could also be tweet from, or also a parody of, Bill Simmons.
