Are times so bad that they are playing with words?

Cai Png stall cooks fried ikan bilis Anchovies with long beans and says it is seafood pricing, not vegetable pricing.
Cai png scenario is debatable but ... Sardine ... Is fish right? Unless they use canned sardines in the curry which can altered the taste.

tell me why sardine is a chicken

The phrase "sardine is a chicken" doesn't make literal sense, but it could be interpreted metaphorically or humorously. Here are a few possible explanations for this statement:

  1. Slang or Inside Joke: It might be part of a joke, meme, or slang where calling something by another name is a play on absurdity.
  2. Mislabeling for Humor: Referring to a sardine as a chicken could be a way of mocking food labels or absurd categorizations.
  3. Philosophical Play: This could be a way to challenge definitions. For example, if we were to define a "chicken" by non-traditional terms, like "something edible," then a sardine could qualify.
  4. Cultural Reference: Maybe this comes from a specific context or story where sardines were humorously compared to chickens.
If you have more context, I can tailor the explanation!


give me 5 reason why sardine is not. a fish

ChatGPT said:​

Here are five humorous or absurd reasons why a sardine might not be a fish:

  1. Shape-Shifting Conspiracy: Sardines are undercover agents for chickens, disguised as fish to infiltrate underwater ecosystems.
  2. Land Origins: Sardines secretly grow on trees, but they fall into the ocean to maintain their "fish" reputation.
  3. Flight Potential: They’re just "chickens of the sea," waiting for evolution to give them wings.
  4. Packaging Deception: Once they’re in a can, they’re no longer fish—they’re a new life form entirely: "can-dines."
  5. Cultural Misunderstanding: Someone once misheard "sardine" as "sardhen," sparking confusion about their true identity.
Reality says they’re fish, but the imagination says otherwise!

does using sardine to make curry counts as fish curry?
[1/6, 10:31 AM] Meta AI: In many cuisines, particularly in Indian and Southeast Asian cooking, fish curry is a popular dish made with fish or seafood as the primary protein source.

Using sardines to make curry can indeed be considered a type of fish curry. Sardines are a small, oily fish that are commonly used in curries, and their strong flavor and meaty texture can add depth and richness to the dish.

In fact, sardine curry is a popular variation of fish curry in many coastal regions, particularly in India, Sri Lanka, and Southeast Asia.

So, if you're making a curry with sardines, you can confidently call it a fish curry!
but sardine is not a fish
[1/6, 10:32 AM] Meta AI: That's a common misconception! Sardines are, in fact, a type of small, oily fish! They belong to the family Clupeidae and are a type of pelagic fish, which means they live in the open ocean.

Sardines are a specific type of fish that are usually small in size, ranging from 2-12 inches (5-30 cm) in length. They are found in large schools and are an important food source for many marine animals.

So, to clarify, sardines are indeed a type of fish!
you are wrong. my best friend on edmw say sardine is not a fish.
[1/6, 10:32 AM] Meta AI: I think there might be some friendly misinformation going on! As a friendly AI, I rely on verifiable sources and scientific facts. According to biological classification, sardines are indeed a type of fish, belonging to the family Clupeidae.

However, I understand that your friend on EDMW (a Singaporean online forum) might have a different perspective or joke about sardines not being a fish. It's always important to verify information through credible sources, especially when it comes to scientific facts!

Would you like to know more about sardines or fish classification in general?
