It's all Sketties to them (meme by AacornSoup, Fluffy image by Carpdime):

Fun fact, I had to look up a list of all the long string and ribbon pastas that Italy has produced in order to make this meme.

Because- as much as it would be amusing to see a Fluffy turning down fettuccine alfredo as “Nu-Sketties”- I highly doubt a Fluffy would be able (or willing) to differentiate between spaghetti and angel-hair, or spaghetti and linguine, or between spaghetti and some obscure ribbon pasta from some super-specific part of Italy.

(yes, I know I misspelled “fetuccine” with only one C in the meme, I didn’t notice until I posted it.)

I never took ‘skettis’ as being the type of pasta itself but the preparation. That being something cheap and shitty, likely butter mixed with ketchup

Very interesting about types of pasta, what interested me most was angel hair pasta.Very interesting about types of pasta, the one that interested me most was angel hair pasta.

i can only imagine a fluffy asking for sketty only for you to go down the list of types and watch his little head just derp from all the choices. lil bit of blood go down his nose after.

This is something I’ve always found very interesting. While a fluffy theoretically could tell the difference between a fancy homemade spaghetti with artisanal marinara and parmigiana reggano, and boiled ramen noodles and ketchup, and presumably like one over the other, it gifts the moniker of “sketties” to all. At least in most writing. I always wonder about the mental hard coding and what would push the boundaries of sketties vs. not-sketties.

Anyway, I always love fluffy pony content that’s traditional memes, so yay!

I find myself uncomfortably close to the fluffy in this case. For me, pasta is pasta. It’s there as a filling in my meals.

Do they recognize ramen and other sketti based soups as skettis, or is there too much wawa in a soup so it has to be with sauce?

I guess orzo is too similar to rice to be skettis to them.
