Wrong sub.
You're looking for r/notthecabbage

Simple. You start calling some hog farms.

The answer:
> Part of that ship's cargo was the 18 containers, each weighing 20 tonnes, of cabbages that ended up with Mr Slinn. His Ipswich-based firm organised their delivery to an anaerobic digestion plant, where they were turned into fuel.

It’s an allusion to a joke in a popular cartoon.

Someone else already posted this. How is this supposed to lead to meaningful conversation?
Mirrorsponge t1_iwf6oee wrote
How do you define meaningful? Who with and about what are you hoping to discuss? If you take nothing else from the comment, take a recommendation to watch Avatar: The Last Airbender.
samuelgato t1_iwfal0w wrote
Um, what kind of meaningful conversation were you hoping to find here?

Fertiliser maybe
koavf OP t1_iwg2cdx wrote
You answered a question with a question. If you're going to respond with a joke, at least an original one that isn't just quoting a piece of media would be nice. How is Reddit better for having these kinds of comments repeatedly?

Also, the person didn't recommend the show or even name it: how would I have known that this is a recommendation? It's just the laziest and most unhelpful comment.

If you’re going to post an article why don’t you post one that you wrote? How does it make Reddit better to read a story about rotting cabbages? What about this story makes it appropriate for this sub?
koavf OP t1_iwgqnyk wrote
That doesn't answer my questions.

Lighten up, dude.

Oh, okay.
Mirrorsponge t1_iwgs4oi wrote
I don’t feel that your questions were asked in good faith. The tone of your writing was judgemental and critical.
koavf OP t1_iwgsijz wrote
My questions were asked in good faith.

Reddit is “the front page of the internet”. I find it reassuring to see others reference relevant cultural icons that I think will guide the world to a better place.
What about this article suggests it would be satirical if it weren’t real?
koavf OP t1_iwh0vum wrote
It is absurd. Not everything that The Onion publishes is satire. Message boards are not better off for a raft of comments that are just quotations of an existing piece of media, especially when someone else has already made the same lazy comment.
Mirrorsponge t1_iwh3r1j wrote
Ahh. There’s that bad faith again. This article isn’t even absurd. It’s actually quite substantial. Use better judgement when posting articles to this sub.

What do you think "bad faith" means?
Mirrorsponge t1_iwh9rbh wrote
Questions asked in bad faith are not seeking an answer to understand, but rather to critique the answer or the answerer.
koavf OP t1_iwh9zlp wrote
That doesn't answer my question. Look at the thread you are in: you called something bad faith that wasn't even a question. The fact that you are paying no attention to the thread itself and blithely writing "bad faith" with no comprehending of what the term means or what is written in the thread is itself bad faith.
Mirrorsponge t1_iwhakfp wrote
When you asked “how are they your cabbages” you mean to tell me you genuinely thought they might be mine?

I have good faith that those who understand the joke will appreciate it. I hope you find some humor in your day and that we can stop bantering about someone else’s cabbages.
