They're talking about the raspberry ripple ice cream things that weren't supposed to be ice cream but were better as ice cream. Also virtually nobody knew they weren't supposed to be ice cream.

Could someone argue that when everyone has a degree, no one has a degree?

[-]

Jpmoz999@reddit

Depends on who you think the audience is?

We (the U.K.) can’t compete against manpower in China or India, which means you need a very educated populace to attract inward investment.

[-]

I don’t think the number of degrees is the issue, the problem is that people got degrees not because they were passionate about a subject, but because their parents (and to some extent the job market) told them they needed a degree.

A degree shows a level of skill, if backed up with the passion.

Bonus: Original recipe/flavour of both lucazade orange and morrison spicy pasta. Both are still available but the lucazade flavour changed years back and they must have changed the recipe for the pasta it used to be a dish of fire and flavour. Now it's just a dish of fire 😂
