    Why is it a compliment to associate food with moral decline?

    I tried complimenting my wife by telling her that her food was very good for my pursuit of prishus.

    That didn’t go over very well.

    Or calling someone a Ding Dong?

    I thought this thread was about people using names of decadent foods as an insult. In some parts of the world, Ding Dongs may be considered the casual nonJewish man’s decadent dessert. But as far as I know, they’re trief.

    Better to stick to Little Debbie’s — her Cocoa Creme is supposedly comparable, according to virtual clues. But I’m not sure if one would be insulted if called a cocoa creme. Rather, it may be a term of endearment.

    When you tell the cook that the food is what’s wrong with this generation, it’s an insult.

    No it isn’t.

    Why is it not an insult to tell someone that something they did is very bad?

    It is.

    Constructive criticism can be very good.

    Wait what kind of decadent food reference doubles as an insult?

    The word itself.

    Gamanit: Wow thanks! 🙂 I had no clue! I thought decadent was a compliment if anything, similar to “luxurious” — Maybe I need to look up “luxurious” too to make sure it doesn’t have another less pleasing meaning.

    One synonym of decadent is self-indulgent.

    One synonym of self-indulgent is luxurious.
