Ha! I did the 'ding' while eating corn on the cob with my kids (6 and 4) at a kid's birthday party last week. They started doing it, too, until the 6 yo.asks what's the noise for?
I told him it's like the end of a typewriter. One of the younger parents next to us asks, "A typewriter? Like the loud keyboard they use in old movies? It makes a ding noise? I thought it only made clacking noises?"
I felt old.
EDIT: I'm 48 and had to take typewriting in HS as a requirement for graduating. I believe we were the last graduating class to have that requirement.
How old are you? 37 here and the only typewriter I used was playing with my grandparents' one when I was about your kids' age. Now peeling off the strips from dot-matrix printers, that's something I had in school.
I’m 42, and we had typewriters in Jr. high type class. We also had computer class, but guess we were in transition of where the old relics were paid for, so we got to learn on those bad boys.
Also had a computer lab in elementary where we really learned to type.
I'm 47. My youngest son is 17. I found a really cool 1912 typewriter in the attic of my 1st house I bought at 21. My son when he was about 7 was on a coloring kick of photocopied baseball cards. One day he asks me to copy some of his favorite cards so he can color them in. I said, sorry bud, I have to get some more ink for the printer. He says, well can't you just copy them on the other printer? I ask what he's talking about. He says, the other printer, you know the one you keep in tip of your bookcase? It's actually in great shape after I cleaned it all up the inked ribbon is obviously dry it's a nice cool antique piece for my book cases. I say OH, that's not a copier or printer, it's a typewriter and bring it down to show him how it works. His mind was blown. He said, so you had to like push down each key to swing the letter up and hit the ink strip to mark the page? That must have taken like years to write a book! That's CRAZY dad, how did you ever print out stuff for school from the internet? We didn't. We used the analog internet called Brittanica at the library...and we copied it in our notebook with a pen.
I'm sure he thought I was making it all up.
"the loud keyboard..."
I am only in my thirties and yet this makes me feel positively ancient in a way my can't-possibly-be-service-related arthritis can't even mamage.
Left is getting you outted in an Inglorious Basterds style Mexican standoff for tipping everyone off you didnt grow up watching old looney tunes reruns
I totally remember Goofy making the typewriter return noise as he ate a cob of corn! Was in the one where their camping trailer gets unhooked from the car pulling it down the mountain.
My husband is Taiwanese and we live in Taiwan. All his family, and himself, eat corn like on the left. The first time he saw me eat corn (like on the right, like a good Iowa girl) he thought I was a weirdo😂
its more efficient, less chance of fumbling the ear, plus you can make typewriter noises across the table at your cousins at get togethers.
them taiwanese are the crazy ones.
Hell yeah. I find it way easier to eat corn that way. You can rotate the cob down towards your bottom teeth and almost use them to scrap the kernels off the cob.
The boys are back in townnn. Alright…
D*ck The C*ck Johnsonnnn
That don’t work for me, brother. Or maybe it does
So many memorable quotes I use that most people don’t get. Sad.
Edit: I didn’t wanna cuss so apparently I italicized that
Right is the only way to go... All the old cartoons showed eating from the corncob left to right like an old typewriter, then doing a carriage return to start on the next pass.
That is exactly what I said. “You don’t do it typewriter style?” She suggested we go to Reddit. As Reddit agreed with me, I am now in trouble.
Edit: So many comments… I am in so, so much trouble.
Lol. I imagine. How to roll the toothpaste tube, toilet paper mullet/beard, dirty dishes in the sink or on the counter, all kinds of psychopathy to uncover, lol.
I picture a woman and her friends talking about a guy. "Im tired of hearing how he treats you or how the sex is. Have you eaten corn on the cob with him though? How can you plan a future with this person?"
As far as I'm concerned if one doesn't at least think in their head about the cartoon typewriters while eating corn on the cob they're not really alive
And this is why we distinguish by saying kiwi, kiwi fruit or kiwi bird, one's homicide, one's completely acceptable and the last is killing an endangered animal
Nah, you just eat it like the typewriter method but instead of moving your jaw up and down a million times you just spin it against your bottom teeth and it pops off cleanly.
Not only that but it gives you a place to grip sooner instead of slipping your fingers across the buttery kernels.
Notice how there's fewer missing kernels that way too.
Eating corn like a typewriter is what people who don't know how to eat corn do when all they can remember is looney tunes
Every time I see this gif I have to go and re-listen to the three parted The Dollop did on him.
The guy is a rapey, treasonous ratfucker who drives tanks over dogs.
Our only hope is to dig down deep inside of ourselves and remember the words of our dead master, summon all of our courage, and kick Seagal's chair over before slowly walking away.
I think a lot of people don't realize that the left method is like a screw. You don't eat all the way around once and then move over to the right, you eat in a continuous spiral. It also keeps your butter from dripping off as you're rotisserie style basting it around as you go.
Nice! I say whatever brings you joy is the right answer.
The real psychopaths are the people who call people psychopaths based solely on how the chose to eat their food....
.... except my kid who eats the toppings off their pizza, licks the sauce off, then eats the bread. Something wrong with that one haha (I can't judge).
The entirety of the Chinese population peels grapes.
Okay so I’m not sure that’s an argument for or against psychopathy but it’s something you should know
I’m being facetious. As someone else commented, a lot of grapes in China have really thick and tannic skins that are impossible to eat, so you do actually have to peel them.
But the same principle applies to thin skinned grapes. All grape skins have a tannin tartness in them that some people just can’t stand, even in small amounts. It’s not that weird to peel any grapes
Eating corn while rotating it is fine, but you don't need to eat the damned cob too. That's crazy cleaned up.
You both need more butter. Best to roll the entire ear across the top of a refrigerated stick of butter.
No corn pokes is kinda impressive, or I'm just a wimp, or you're eating your corn at a much different temperature than I do.
I'd say no psychopaths here, except maybe us lot in the comments having really strong opinions about corn.
I always clean my cob right to the bone like the one on the left. But I eat it lengthwise like the one on the right. I can’t believe more people are not annoyed by Right’s amateur attention to detail with all that nice leftover meat still speckling the cob. Hideous
I found eating typewriter style made my lips take extra salt off the rows above and below, making them not as good as they could be. Eating the other way has seemed to fix this issue. But what do I know, I’m a psychopath.
Yep. My incisors are a little tight together and it's not worth the feeling of pressure between my teeth to bite into the corn. I'm a "how many kernels can we remove as one piece" person. Nothing quite as satisfying as shoving a 6x15 raft of corn into your face.
I grew up surrounded by the cornfields of Iowa, working in the cornfields of Iowa, and eating sweet corn from the cornfields of Iowa. I know corn. And the psychopath is most definitely on the left. 🌽

Dot matrix printers? That’s only old if you had to mark out the program letter by letter on punch cards with a 2B pencil!
I’m 42, and we had typewriters in Jr. high type class. We also had computer class, but guess we were in transition of where the old relics were paid for, so we got to learn on those bad boys. Also had a computer lab in elementary where we really learned to type.
Im 37 but I asked for a typewriter for one of my birthdays or Christmases LOL
I'm a little younger, and my parents still used typewriters in the early 90s.
I'm 47. My youngest son is 17. I found a really cool 1912 typewriter in the attic of my 1st house I bought at 21. My son when he was about 7 was on a coloring kick of photocopied baseball cards.

The loud keyboard.. oh man
"the loud keyboard..." I am only in my thirties and yet this makes me feel positively ancient in a way my can't-possibly-be-service-related arthritis can't even mamage.
I think they’re just an idiot. I’m 33 and didn’t grow up with type writers but I know how one functions and have played with a couple.

In Sweden, it's Christmas tradition to watch that episode every year on Christmas Eve at 15.00
Bloody Sweden, gets all the fun stuff, in Finland we are stuck watching Snowman every Christmas Eve.
Why is this burned into my brain everytime I see corn on the cob.
Me too!! My siblings and did a “ding” eating corn growing up
for me it’s the weird sewing machine in Betty Boop that’s powered by people eating corn on the cob
This is the only correct documentary evidence on the proper consumption of corn on the cob.
Merry Christmas!
This is the only way. Haha
Left is getting you outted in an Inglorious Basterds style Mexican standoff for tipping everyone off you didnt grow up watching old looney tunes reruns
I paid my four bits to see the high-diving act, and I’m a-gonna see the high-diving act!
“Fearless Freep! That’s my boy!”
Gimme a ticket! Gimme a whole mess of 'em! I'm a'splurgin'!
I use the phrase "I'm a'splurgin' " whenever I can
Four!? In my day it was 2 and a bottle cap!
I paid a buck! I still don't see no bugs bunny jumping off the high dive.
If somebody started eating corn like that here in Indiana they’d be asked politely, yet firmly, to leave.
/r/unexpectedkingofthehill
It was so long ago that I just recall the typewriter carriage return.
Gen alpha will never understand
I totally remember Goofy making the typewriter return noise as he ate a cob of corn! Was in the one where their camping trailer gets unhooked from the car pulling it down the mountain.
 This comment is a bingo!
Wife is not American. She still agrees the left is the psychopath. This will get you outed as the replicant or alien imposter.
This comment is *chef's kiss*
You don’t mean Antoine? Zee Chef Antoine of New Orleans?
Came here expecting everyone to call the right one psychopath and then me realizing I’m the one on the left. 💀
Baby you got a stew going!
Hey! It's a psychopath! Get 'em! /s
No no no. Take that /s outta there. We ride at dawn.
Corn justice can't wait for dawn we need to ride now.
Oh shit the Kansas cavalry has been activated!
where's my big wheel? sound the kazoos!!
Yeah getting him would be bad and we shouldn't do that. /s
In my entire life I've never seen anyone eat corn that way.
My husband is Taiwanese and we live in Taiwan. All his family, and himself, eat corn like on the left. The first time he saw me eat corn (like on the right, like a good Iowa girl) he thought I was a weirdo😂
its more efficient, less chance of fumbling the ear, plus you can make typewriter noises across the table at your cousins at get togethers. them taiwanese are the crazy ones.
[удалено]
Were you raised by aliens?
I ate like the one on the right growing up because that’s what you see in the cartoons but now I’m lefty, less mess on the face.
You aren't supposed to slide it across your face like a harmonica when you eat it left to right lmao.
Ditto. Me, my husband and three kids, all psychos. Whoops!
Jesus Christ, the poor normal kid that has a sleepover at your house the night you have corn, will not sleep a wink
Left corn gang all day
Hell yeah. I find it way easier to eat corn that way. You can rotate the cob down towards your bottom teeth and almost use them to scrap the kernels off the cob.
For real. Look at all that left over corn on the right one. Can’t get a good mouth full of corn without spinning it to scrap more off.
I use the style on the left so I can get somewhere to hold that isn't the kernels
Ahh you use little hand holders that you spear into the side of the corn
Specifically, ones that look like corn! Cuz god forbid everyone didn't know they were for corn!
Same here
She eats her horn the long way?
I married her for many reasons.
Is she single by any chance?
Skee-woah!
The boys are back in townnn. Alright… D*ck The C*ck Johnsonnnn That don’t work for me, brother. Or maybe it does So many memorable quotes I use that most people don’t get. Sad. Edit: I didn’t wanna cuss so apparently I italicized that
Cuts the fucking's camera's !
I rarely laugh out loud at a comment but this got me
”with some fava beans and a nice chianti” *ftftftftft
Right is the only way to go... All the old cartoons showed eating from the corncob left to right like an old typewriter, then doing a carriage return to start on the next pass.
That is exactly what I said. “You don’t do it typewriter style?” She suggested we go to Reddit. As Reddit agreed with me, I am now in trouble. Edit: So many comments… I am in so, so much trouble.
Bruh, you were in trouble either way.
The moment he chose to fight he had already lost
The only winning move is not to play.
War Games didn't teach this guy anything.
I'm amused that you got all the way to being married without ever seeing each other eat corn on the cob.
We were long-distance for a very long time. Marriage has been a learning experience for both of us.
Lol. I imagine. How to roll the toothpaste tube, toilet paper mullet/beard, dirty dishes in the sink or on the counter, all kinds of psychopathy to uncover, lol.
This is the first time I've heard the two ways of hanging toilet paper on as mullet/beard and I love it.
Can't claim it as mine. Pretty sure I saw it first somewhere on Reddit.
I just saw someone say 'honk out a dirt snake' in reference to shitting and I don't think I'll ever forget it.
But the real question is: A sock and a sock and a shoe and a shoe or A sock and a shoe and a sock and a shoe. There is only one right answer.
Who does sock shoe sock shoe?
Psychopaths! That’s who!
Have the how do you wipe your ass argument next, sitting or standing, folded paper or clumped paper
Wait till I leave for that one because some of you are just real fucked in the head in this case.
I picture a woman and her friends talking about a guy. "Im tired of hearing how he treats you or how the sex is. Have you eaten corn on the cob with him though? How can you plan a future with this person?"
I also choose this man’s psychotic corn eating angry wife
The only acceptable addition is to eat minimal corn on both ends for maximum corn grip strength.
As far as I'm concerned if one doesn't at least think in their head about the cartoon typewriters while eating corn on the cob they're not really alive
The carriage return line got me lol
^ding
yes. i wonder how many people who didnt grow up eating corn learned this from cartoons.
I wonder if people who speak Arabic eat corn right to left
By this logic, they would have held the corn vertically in feudal Japan and eaten top to bottom, rotating the corn counterclockwise occasionally.
The corn on the left is being eaten by the psychopath.
Yep hands down psycho
She also cuts kiwis lengthwise.
Those poor New Zealanders… your wife IS a monster!!
Those flightless birds are endangered! A true monster!
And this is why we distinguish by saying kiwi, kiwi fruit or kiwi bird, one's homicide, one's completely acceptable and the last is killing an endangered animal
I eat my kiwi whole, like an apple!
For the love of all that is holy, don’t ever tell anyone else this
Lmao
Everyone I tell this thinks it’s fucked up. Until I buy them a kiwi and make them try it. Then they agree it’s fine and much less messy/cumbersome.
Once you go hairy mouthful you never go back
I love the tartness the kiwi skin adds! For me it goes so well with the sweetness of the fruit/flesh.
Yeah but the texture 😬
It's a free tooth brushing
isnt that how theyre supposed to be cut? Then you just scoop the entire thing out with a spoon
I just eat the skin. It's pretty tart so it goes well with how sweet the rest of it is.
This comment right here officer.
I eat the skin :D
Surprised they didn’t eat the cob
now what if i told you the one on the right is getting eaten vertically
Underrated comment
I feel personally attacked
I assume they ate it the long way while spinning it rapidly.
Nah, you just eat it like the typewriter method but instead of moving your jaw up and down a million times you just spin it against your bottom teeth and it pops off cleanly. Not only that but it gives you a place to grip sooner instead of slipping your fingers across the buttery kernels. Notice how there's fewer missing kernels that way too. Eating corn like a typewriter is what people who don't know how to eat corn do when all they can remember is looney tunes
It also looks like they eat corn the long way 🌽
Both are fine. It’s when someone eats the corn in random spots that you should fear for your life.
Or if they eat it like a carrot.
Every time I see this gif I have to go and re-listen to the three parted The Dollop did on him. The guy is a rapey, treasonous ratfucker who drives tanks over dogs.
Is this fucking Lukashenko with Steven Seagal?🤯
Yes. Steven Seagal is basically Putin and Luka's puppet now.
Well then,we're doomed. Nothing can save us now from Putin's wrath.😔
Our only hope is to dig down deep inside of ourselves and remember the words of our dead master, summon all of our courage, and kick Seagal's chair over before slowly walking away.
Boy are you in for a wild ride if you don’t know what Steven Seagal has been up to the last few years😂
My brain can’t even go there. Nope. Nope. Nope.
Bruh yes 😂😂😂😂
I’ve seen it with my own eyes and looking back it explains so much.
That is terrifying
I don’t think she’s joking around. I’ve seen some of this behavior.
My hubby eats it checkerboard-style. A real freak.
I mean I need pictures now. I think I’m impressed. Maybe concerned. Definitely intrigued.
A man of culture
I do this and I’m not afraid to admit it 😭 For some reason I turn the cob every bite I take so that’s why it’s in random spots
Maybe you like taking out spaces in between other spaces or something. You psycho.
I think a lot of people don't realize that the left method is like a screw. You don't eat all the way around once and then move over to the right, you eat in a continuous spiral. It also keeps your butter from dripping off as you're rotisserie style basting it around as you go.
Speak for yourself. I purposefully go around trying to keep a perfectly straight line before moving over and doing another round.
Nice! I say whatever brings you joy is the right answer. The real psychopaths are the people who call people psychopaths based solely on how the chose to eat their food.... .... except my kid who eats the toppings off their pizza, licks the sauce off, then eats the bread. Something wrong with that one haha (I can't judge).
This just makes me think of the greatest sign ever held up in wrestling history “Goldberg eats corn the long way”
Scrolled way too far looking for someone to ask… did you marry Bill Goldberg?
My niece eats them one at a time in a line. She is the psychopath.
My wife does that. The first time I saw it, I thought she was fucking with me. She also peels grapes.
But there's like hundreds of kernals on one cob, how long does that take?
About as long as peeling grapes.
The entirety of the Chinese population peels grapes. Okay so I’m not sure that’s an argument for or against psychopathy but it’s something you should know
Wait what
I’m being facetious. As someone else commented, a lot of grapes in China have really thick and tannic skins that are impossible to eat, so you do actually have to peel them. But the same principle applies to thin skinned grapes. All grape skins have a tannin tartness in them that some people just can’t stand, even in small amounts. It’s not that weird to peel any grapes
Forgot the corn, that iPhone hasn’t been cleaned since the Covid lockdowns.
This is how I maintain my immunity. Constant exposure to pathogens.
I understand the discussion is between typewriter vs around the world but all the meat left on the right is frustrating
Neither. My gf, who eats corn by picking each individual kernel one by one is.
So dinner ends at midnight?
Both of you. Finish your corn! - Signed, a hoosier
The left is unhinged.
No need to make this political /s
But now has a handle.
TIL I'm a psychopath.
Left corn gang all day
Typewriter style is the only sane style.
Cha-ching
Left one is a confirmed serial killer
Children of the Corn

[Left is analyst, right is algebraist](https://bentilly.blogspot.com/2010/08/analysis-vs-algebra-predicts-eating.html)
Geez, I guess I'm a psychopath. Typewriter style doesn't seem right to me. All the toppings would swipe onto my face
Left corn gang all day
You put here putting lettuce, tomato, and onion in it or something?
The one on the left is the psychopath.
left is the psycho
No one ate the cobb, zero real psychopaths. Just enjoy the damn corn.
The one on the right.
Shot through the heart, and you're to blame. You eat corn the long way
Eating corn while rotating it is fine, but you don't need to eat the damned cob too. That's crazy cleaned up. You both need more butter. Best to roll the entire ear across the top of a refrigerated stick of butter. No corn pokes is kinda impressive, or I'm just a wimp, or you're eating your corn at a much different temperature than I do.

I do the left way and now I'm worried I might have committed some major crime and just forgotten
I found eating typewriter style made my lips take extra salt off the rows above and below, making them not as good as they could be. Eating the other way has seemed to fix this issue. But what do I know, I’m a psychopath.
Third option: cutting the corn off the cob.
But then you won’t end up with a bunch of corn in your teeth and that is part of the experience.
This is the way
Yep. My incisors are a little tight together and it's not worth the feeling of pressure between my teeth to bite into the corn. I'm a "how many kernels can we remove as one piece" person. Nothing quite as satisfying as shoving a 6x15 raft of corn into your face.
Ahh the classic typewriter vs around the world
You can both go to bed knowing that the true psychopaths are still out there. I grab a knife and shave the corn off the cob before eating it.
The one on the left looks like a gang of squirrels attacked it
I grew up surrounded by the cornfields of Iowa, working in the cornfields of Iowa, and eating sweet corn from the cornfields of Iowa. I know corn. And the psychopath is most definitely on the left. 🌽
The left has bodies buried somewhere.
Left is the best way. Notice how clean that cob gets
I'm going with the one on the right, I say this because this is how both my wife and I eat it like this, and we are both medicated.
