    Now make him freak out again by telling him peanuts aren’t nuts.

    Okay, this may paint me in a bad light, but I was fucking 40 before I learned peanuts grew underground. I ain’t Joe Rogan stupid, but dang.

    Nobody around here grew them (that I know of), and I never went anywhere that grew them where I would see them.

    I assumed they were like any legume, growing above ground like peas or green beans.

    But noooooo, they’re ground nuts. Which I thought was a different plant entirely.

    Out of all my damn family on both sides, visiting (and working on) various farms, nobody grew the damn things.

    So, yeah.

      In plenty of languages peanuts are also called ‘ground nuts’ or ‘earth nuts’

      • Vlyn@lemmy.zip ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        Ouch, I had to think about what it’s in my motherlanguage and it’s actually earth nuts (Erdnüsse in German).

        If you had asked me how they grow it would have been a 50/50 if I got it wrong.

        The english Wikipedia article mentions that it’s sometimes called groundnut in english too.

        Nah I’ve watched him so for a claim to be checked, his checker came back saying that it was a true claim when it was total bullshit.

      Joe Rogan’s not stupid, he just had chronic traumatic encephalopathy from some injuries in his early twenties. Also he is an asshole.

      source
      • southsamurai@sh.itjust.works ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        Well, being as generous as possible, he says things a stupid person would say, with a high frequency. If that’s due to tbi, I feel sorry for him, but he’s still saying a lot of stupid stuff.

      I live in SW Ontario which used to be prime tobacco territory as in teenagers used to work tobacco fields in the 90’s when I was in HS. Both peanuts and tobacco love a loose sandy soil.

      Point being, no one is expected to know how something grows unless they have some knowledge that makes them intimate or they’re a fucking nerd. Lol

      I just found out via this green text.

    • Ookami38@sh.itjust.works ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      Honestly I think the only reason I kinda realized was because we distinguish peanuts from tree nuts - nuts that do grow on trees. The implication thus that peanuts grow at least not in trees.

      Okay, this may paint me in a bad light, but I was fucking 40 before I learned peanuts grew underground. I ain’t Joe Rogan stupid, but dang.

      I think that’s why dudes are magnetized to Joe. Interesting trivia that at no point does the average person need to think about are brought up and it’s fascinating.

      Unfortunately, Joe also mixes in conspiracy BS. His extreme lack of critical thinking (or thinking with cherry picked data to fit a particular narrative), is why his fans are constantly belittled by people looking in.

      source
    • Duamerthrax@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      No one’s criticizing Rogan for not knowing everything. The punchline is how he reacts to new knowledge and how he builds a false narrative to explain it

    To be fair to the dude, I didn’t know this either until a teacher taught by teaching us about peanuts. How many of us know much about most of the things we eat?

    source
    • Syd@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      What do you eat that you don’t know about? Barring a lot of newer preservatives food is pretty straightforward.

      • sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        It’s one of those “you don’t know what you don’t know” things. I apparently make a lot of assumptions about the things I eat. Some examples of things I was surprised about:

        • coffee beans aren’t beans, they’re closer to cherries
        • how pineapples grow
        • avocados are apparently berries
        • what adult asparagus look like

        And so on. I’m sure there are a ton more, and I’m always excited to find something that really surprises me.

    Think Rogan would fuck a chimpanzee?

    source
    • No1@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      Well, a key question is ‘Do you think a chimpanzee would let Joe Rogan fuck them?’

      Because if not, it’s not consensual and that opens up some serious questions.

        Good luck trying to fuck a chimpanzee without consent. Those are strong as hell.

        The question is irrelevant because Joe would prefer to wrestle the chimp into submission first. This reminds me of that time he interviewed a chimp.

    I grew fennel last year. Have been eating fennel for years and thought we were eating the root part (the white part) and that the green part was the above ground part. No. There is a root underground but the whole fennel sits on top of the soil looking like it will tip over any minute. The white and green parts.

    I know good, have worked at groceries, in restaurants, health food stores, I cook. But gardening has taught me new things, and I’m over 50.
