This has become the new cool hip phenomenon where couples will go on a sushi date.
Just a few minutes ago i was watching my chaddam friends snapchat story and he was eating sushi with his qt girlfriend in the car.
By going on these sushi dates the couples are showing three moggs.
First is the financial mogg since sushi is madly overpriced so youd have to be relatively well off to afford all that sushi on multiple dates. And second is ofcoarse the relationship mogg where they can post pics and laugh at all the subhumans who will never have a relationship
The third is the "quirky" mogg. Since most of these couples doing this shit are white, they go out to eat sushi since it allows them to virtue signal about how they love eating exotic and nonwhite foods. But ofcoarse you wont see them eating actual exotic foods like feseekh](https://i0.wp.com/www.wehuntedthemammoth.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/2020-05-24_17-40-12.png?resize=580%2C1573&ssl=1)
Incels, you really need to develop some hobbies, dudes; this is getting ridiculous.
On the lingo: MOG is short for AMOG or “Alpha Male of the Group,” a bit of PUA lingo the incels have enthusiastically adopted. If you get “mogged” by someone, it means they’ve shown themseles to be more alpha than you.

I’ve never consumed cat urine, but I don’t like bleu cheese at all. Maybe hákarl appeals to people who are into urolagnia (not my thing, but I know some like it)?
AFAIK sushi is fundamentally a rice dish, that typically just happens to include some seafood (not necessarily raw). I suppose in Egyptian fusion cuisine, you could eat feseekh on sushi – or indeed dates on sushi.
(/drum roll)
Wikipedia says feseekh is fermented AND dried AND salted. Sounds like a bit of an overkill, though it may have been traditionally necessary to preserve fish in a hot desert climate.
Fermented, dried or salted fish seems to have mostly gone out of fashion since refridgeration was available. I haven’t personally eaten surströmming (the most accessible application of fermented fish around here), but I sort of like lutefisk (lye-salted, cooked), sill (pickled in vinegar, not so much the salted version) and gravlax (originally fermented, in modern version just lightly salted raw fish).
Gravlax made from the fatty belly of a big salmon is just heavenly. I understand the japanese equivalent (from tuna) is called toro, a classic in fancy sushi cuisine.
@Lumipuna
You’re absolutely right. There are plenty of types of sushi with no fish at all (I absolutely adore inari-zushi, basically just flattened fried tofu wrapped around sushi rice). The main thing is the rice prepared with vinegar.
I won’t say that feseekh or dates on sushi are impossible, but that’d certainly be an eclectic mix.
Taiwan has a big Japanese influence (it was a Japanese colony 1895-1945) and sushi is widely eaten here. One very popular type is cucumber and processed ham, the kind of ham that comes in square slices in plastic packets- no fish at all.
Yeah, I understand sushi is the sticky rice bit and when it’s fish based it’s sashimi or something.
Veg sushi is really common here; and in London I went to a Japanese place (ironically in Chinatown) that had fois gras sushi.
Sashimi is just the raw fish, sliced thin and served with a dipping sauce. Various kinds of sushi have fish in them, but many are just rice and various vegetables; as Alan says, vinegar rice is the defining trait of sushi.
So, this OP guy’s sushi obsession gives a whole new meaning to “ricecel”.
…
While loosely on topic, I can’t avoid noticing an opportunity for some Finnish wordplay:
sushipari = “sushi couple”, as in the people this incel guy complains about
susipari = “wolf couple”, an old pejorative for unmarried couples as judged by random busybodies
Also, with regard to sushi not being a fancy exotic thing any more:
There’s the colloquial Finnish term susiraja or “wolf limit”, meaning the boundary of wolf distribution area or (metaphorically) very rural area. In recent years, it’s been jokingly noted that the expanding distribution of wolves has begun overlapping with “sushiraja”, the limit of the distribution of sushi restaurants spreading from urban centers to ever more remote rural areas.
I very much enjoy eating California rolls (seaweed, rice, and avocado — no fish) with my quirky yet super-alpha dates while we chortle at the antics of incels.
@Dalillama
Being of (partial) Icelandic decent, I’ll skip the hakarl and stick with vinarterta. 😀
In another regional variation, sushis are fast-food level of cheap in Paris. Probably more because fast food is overpriced granted :p. At least the one made by chineses. Sushi shops where japaneses works have a much greater aura of quality. (I do prefer ramen however)
Veg sushi are entirely a western invention no ? I might be wrong on that, but like fortune cookies I remember it as not being japanese in the slightest.
The incel shit is awful but I like the sound of the word mog so I’ve stolen it and changed the meaning so that now when I play games, to get mogged means to die to a blindside attack from an enemy holding an angle and just waiting for you to walk into their line of fire.

That was the first time I heard the word “mogg” :p
This is pure gold. Thank you, Lumipuna.
Like Redsilkphoenix and Naglfar, i do not understand what chaddam friends and qt girlfriend are. Maybe qt girlfriend is a phone shortcut for cuttie ? But i am not sure they are his friends. Maybe some people he stalks by in social media. And even if they are, i am not sure i could call “friend” someone disrespecting me in some shitty forum…
And why does he keeps writting “ofcoarse” ? Does it have a special meaning ?
And the picture does not match with the text, the person is not eating in a car. Which make me think again the people he is speaking about are not his friends, and are maybe a byproduct of his imagination who just serve as props for his rant.
This sounds like those gamers who complain about women or whoever only playing puzzle games or something. The only respectable things to like are those that are hard to get into, or require an acquired taste which you can use to pretend to be really tough.
(Not that I know about this fesikh, but if anything is even a bit like surströmming, it’s not for everyone. Not that I’ve tried surströmming either?)
@Lumipuna
This gave me such a weird memory trip! I haven’t eaten fish in twenty years, but I remember enjoying sill and gravlax (especially at Christmas time and midsummer), which is all kinds of confusing, since my memories of eating meat have just all gone a bit fuzzy and seem like it wasn’t that good anyhow. I had no idea fish was another thing completely for me.
But not lutefisk. I know I’ve tried it as a child, but I have no memory of it and it just never looked appetizing to me when I encountered it later.
Filthy casuals just caring about having fun. That’s not what games are about.
Longtime reader here; first time commentor.
I think I’ve solved the ‘chaddam’ enigma. Just as Paireon proposed, it’s a portmanteau of ‘Chad’ + ‘Saddam’, meaning an attractive and sexually successful Arab or Middle Eastern man. Apart from its use as a rare given name, the only potentially relevant entries Google shows come from incel fora, though even there the expression seems unusual. It looks like it derives from “Virgin/Chad” memes contrasting “The Virgin George H. W. Bush” with “The Chad Saddam Hussein”.
Because casual racism is hilarious, if you’re an incel.
Ohlmann:
Years ago I saw the anime film Cowboy Bebop, and there was a throwaway gag of people in a futuristic setting eating instant ramen and “instant sushi”. I thought it was mighty funny.
Crip Dyke:
You’re welcome. On a final note, since someone mentioned inari-zushi:
There’s actually a village named Inari* in Finland’s extreme north, the most remote part of the country. They probably don’t have a sushi restaurant – yet.
*Finnish derivation of the native Sami name Anár. The place is a rather central location to Finland’s Sami community. I once visited the Sami museum/cultural center up there, as a teenager on family road trip.
I don’t know if I’d like it now as an adult, but I remember really liking gefilte fish as a kid – big balls of processed, finely minced fish that came in pickle jars. I acquired the taste after getting invited over to a friend’s house for seder. My friend hated the stuff, and smuggled her portions over to my plate as soon as she figured out I liked it.
…After that I got invited over a lot. Hmmm.
I just woke up and read this, and now I want sushi.
@Talonknife
When I heard it I thought of the Mercedes Benz Unimog trucks:
@Occasional reader
Maybe he was trying to write “of course”? Some people use that turn of phrase a lot to emphasize an idea.
@Lukas Xavier
I recall a year ago or so, David wrote about some people who were very upset about journalists wanting games to have an easy mode. I don’t play games much, but I like the idea of an easy mode. Not all people have hours to spend trying to beat the hardest difficulty. Some of us just want to unwind by playing for half an hour a day and want to accomplish something.
@Naglfar
re ofcoarse/of course
With the manosphere, I have trouble distinguishing between typos that exist because spellcheck alone is not enough and typos that exist because there’s a special in-group meaning.
@ lumipuna
That’s wonderful; thank you.
I’ll be stealing that, for practical purposes. Part of our upcoming campaigns has a lot about human encroachment on animal habitats. So that’s a perfect metaphor.
At our next Zoom plotting I will now be saying “Did you know…” and seeing if I can get that adopted.
I’ve just started playing* SnowRunner (the latest iteration of Spintires, the off-road truck sim), so when I saw that Unimog I thought “ooh, nice”.
*Currently on hold while I build a button box which I can map functions to. Real gamers build gaming hardware, unlike filthy casuals.
@Lumipuna
Just out of curiosity as a fellow Finn: where would you put “susiraja”? When I was a child we considered ring road 1 to be “susiraja” and ring road 3 to be the outer limit of civilization… (N.B. to any non-Finns, ring road 1 is approximately 5 miles from the center of Helsinki and ring road 3 about 5 miles further out. :D) Of course, I have heard of some die-hard Helsinki-ites who would put “susiraja” at the northern side of Bulevardi. :O (N. B. again, Bulevardi bisects the city center of Helsinki, leaving only the wealthiest and most, er, “bougie” areas of the city south of it).
Sorry for the OT, but…well, I just gotsta know. 🙂
