Cheese 'n' chips
For a couple of years, I held the honour (on wikipedia) of being known as the inventor of cheese 'n' chips. Specifically the dish that consists of british chips, smoothered in grated cheddar cheese, possibly accompanied by salt & vinegar, maybe some mayo.

No one has yet proved otherwise. If you wish to make a genuine claim as to when and where you came up with this dish, I will see you in the reples.

I first encountered cheesy chips, with mayo, in Romania in 1992, before the internet was available to plebs
And Wikipedia was but a wiggle in the prolitariat's trousers.

So no - fuck YOU.

Unless you're nearly three hundred years old and called Antoine Parmentier then I suspect you're talking arse.

You're wrong
I was there when he invented it. Someone might have contrived a similar combination before, but not to our knowledge.

My life has never been the same.

What on earth are you two barking on about?
Cheese with chips has existed for literally centuries. I'm happy that you shared a man-moment in your student kitchen all those years ago ... and well done for adding something temporarily to a Wiki ... but you didn't invent anything new.

Hmmm
a) Tautology: if you invent it, it's new
b) Chips with cheese isn't necessarily the same as 'cheesy chips'

OK. I think I see the problem here.
You're educationally sub-normal.

Hate to correct you Mein Doktor
but I'll do it anyway.

Ah, clever.
Educationally sub-normal. What gives you that idea?

And what does it mean? Educated to a level below the norm? If so, then no.

It means you're too thick to hold up your end of this conversation.

Don't be so sure
At least I don't retrospectively edit my parts of the dialogue to give an impression that my interlocutor is a spazz-brain.

You genuinely don't understand tautology, do you?
Bless.

Er, yes. I do.
a. Needless repetition of the same sense in different words; redundancy.
b. An instance of such repetition.

Quote: "You didn't invent anything new." the 'new' is redundant, or you could have said: "You didn't produce anything new."

So double Bless.

Where's the proof?
I see none.

Oh wait, this is one of those terrible replies that is actually connected to the previous qotw.

Good grief
Someone actually believes they were the first to put cheese on chips?

In that case I'll claim to be the first person to put Lemon Curd on a potato waffle.

I would claim to be the first person to put spunk on a biscuit
But unfortunately that was the the boy kneeling next to me.

well said
profane, almost off-topic and funny. The spirit of QOTW, not all this pedantic shit that is flying around at the moment.

my mum invented it
cheese on top of chips was her idea of fine dining in 1960, sometimes she gave us a bath.....

Nice and subtle.
However, if you live in the US and have a few dollars to spare I suggest you patent it then sue the cunt out of everyfuck.

Fuck off the lot of you
Archeologists have found cave paintings of men eating Cheese on chips that they believe date to at leat 10,000 BC

But they were taught about them by the aliens who built the pyramids

(the cavemen that is, not the archeologists)

If I remember correctly
This pre-dates the invention of the cheese-grater.

Just NOT the same thing.
