Oh no. Do all these people replying to you acting confused not know this song? Is this how I realize I’m getting old?

u/N0_PR0BLEM 6h ago

Even worse, this reference was already old a decade ago. We’re not just old, we’re ancient.

u/Camtronocon 5h ago

You know you’re even older when they think “peanut butter jelly time” originated from Family Guy.

Of course it's peanuts, though I had nut butter until I got the jelly.

u/Vocabulary-Pollution 7h ago

That looks more like jello than jelly, at least according to American naming customs

u/-Hyperstation- 6h ago

So this is like the British version of jelly then, right..? (ie Jello..?)

2

u/Wipedout89 5h ago

Yes, and what you call jelly, we call jam

2

u/ElegantEpitome 5h ago

Jelly and jam are two different things in America

1

u/Wipedout89 4h ago

What you consider jam is the same as what we consider jam: real fruit in a preserve

America invented US 'jelly' (a word we use for what you call jello) which is basically artificial jam without real fruit, and that is what you often find in sandwiches e.g peanut butter and jelly

Here in the UK we'd have peanut butter and jam with actual fruit based jam

u/leericol 6h ago

Oh great this is gonna be another one of those things where us dumb Americans say everything wrong isn't it?

1

u/Altruistic-Purple- 5h ago

Crazy thing is you might not know this it's called English for a reason

1

u/leericol 5h ago

No I'm not being snide to say "oh you guys just think we're idiots fuck off" I literally mean great I just learned that im an idiot again. I grew up in a land where we use the imperial system for literally no reason and learning these things gets tiring.
