- TIL I'm a woman.
  
  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affirming_the_consequent
- I need to remember this on my next date.
- Powerful Magicks... Don't go talking to the Mage's Guild about this.
  
  Fascinating women with cheese may still be legal in CyrodiiI, but few will admit to it now that the Mage's Guild has banned it.
  Farewell.
  
  They banned me from using "ketamine ape" all cause it somehow got the emperor killed. I shall use "testicular torsion" and "mend butt crack" on them.

How does one become sponsored by Big Parm? Just asking for personal reasons...
- "Big Parma" heh
  
  Big Parma has the government in its pocket, just look at SCOTUS recently overturning the Chevre doctrine
- Big Parma is responsible for the Fontina epidemic that is ravaging our rural communities.
  
  For real though, Fontina is some good shit on pizza. Not as the base cheese, just like an extra topping.
- Be Italian. Be bueatiful. Aquire fame through accomplishments your county takes pride in. Then probably go talk to the parm merchant-kings.
- Invent a Time Machine and start doing gymnastics at two years old by the looks of it
- You go to Big Ched instead and ask them to sponser you

...anyone else thinking of going down and getting a cheese wheel for yourself?
- Yeah! Let's go fuck that cheese!
  
  That’s a gouda idea!
- I once bought a 1 kg piece of parmesan
  
  Which is still just 1/30th of a wheel, imagine what you could've done with that! I once ate in a restaurant where they roll the pasta hot pasta in a full wheel with a little cup part cut out in the middle, delicious.

These photos feel so... gosh, what's the right word ... corny?
- Cheesy!
  
  Naw, I donno, maybe nutty?

It looks like AI images. Perfect woman with a big smile and doing a strange thing.
- It's not AI. It's real. She's just Italian.
- It's not AI. It's real. Source in Italian:
  https://www.parmigianoreggiano.com/it/news/parmigiano-reggiano-giorgia-villa-olimpiadi-tokyo/
- The hands are too good for AI
  
  You would be surprised how much better it’s gotten within a one year period
  That and the fact that you can just regenerate the image until you get one with non shitty looking hands

These are so odd they look AI generated.
- I think it's the barely existent backgrounds, for me
- Hast thee forsaken stock images or art thou full of ignorance?
- A wheel of Parmigiano is about 40kg. That's 2/3rds of her weight... they look weird 'cause they're 'shopped.
  
  She's an olympic gymnast I think she can probably hold 40kg...
- They are so weird
  FTFY
  
  what's wrong with odd in your opinion?
  
  Weird as opposed to odd?

More:
- I know those are probably prop cheese wheels, but I can't help but think they could've made a lot of money selling the ones she did the splits on.
  
  My god, lol. That's some good business sense though.
  
  I think you should spend less time on the Internet.
- This looks like AI, I know it isn't, but it's just bizarre enough that my brain goes "nope can't be real."

I’ve never felt love so strongly until this very moment

I think the real question we all you to be asking yourself, is what has kept you from getting a sponsorship from big cheese?
- I think it's because I'd need to be some sort of athlete and not just sit there eating cheese by the handful
- Now I kinda want a Kraft Cheese Starter jacket from the 90s…
- Probably being vegan and not famous

One of the Canadian canoe slalom athletes is sponsored by eggs
- Back when I saw ads I used to regularly see commercials for eggs. Just a friendly reminder how good they are.
  
  Eggs are nice confirmed ^{is your autocorrect okay there bud}

jfc isn't that like a 100lb wheel of cheese?
- ~80lbs is the usual weight.
  
  and she's hugging it like it's a teddy bear lol
  
  Still, she's a BEAST! Knowing nothing, I searched. Gymnast, dang!
- My wife was a college gymnast when I met her. She was ridiculously strong, I was scaroused. Gymnasts are not from this planet. That weight would be no problem for most.
  Edit: on second look, her hands aren’t clasped and fingers loosely interlinked, probably fake cheese but my above comment still stands.
- 36kg, around 1000€

I don't know why but these pictures remind me of AI generated (not saying they are)!
- Yeah it has that plausible yet completely bizarre setup of an AI image.

She's Italian. So... yup.

Wow! She demolished that cheese wheel, how long did it take her to eat that much cheese?
- Truly she is the Dragonborn
- Not as long as it’s going to take for it to exit her body…
  
  She's an Olympic gymnast, she'll have it flying out of there in no time.

I never knew any sponsorship would work on me and yet here i am desperatly craving for parmesan near me.

Do want
Also the lady seems alright, I guess

It ain’t easy being cheesy.

Must be strong; a wheel of cheese weighs 75 pounds.
- They make fake ones that are plastic and hollow. I love parm.
  
  That is a wheel of lies!
  
  I hope those two sentences aren't directly related.....
  
  I can only imagine someone typing this with one on their head

♪ I hanker for a hunk-a, a slab a side, a chunk-a...I hanker for a hunk of cheese.
When your ten gallon hat is feeling five gallons flat, or anytime you're weak in the knees. ♪
I've got to say, big cheese has a slightly better mascot these days.

Suddenly my life feels less knowing I haven't hugged wheels of cheese.

Eat DOUBLE GLOUCESTER!
The true cheese of sporting champions.
None of this namby-pamby Olympic bollocks! No balancing on a plank for you. Just running down a big hill and getting quite badly injured, like a REAL man!

Small woman with a big cheese.

I am not going to want to start eating more parm because of her, why do companies bother with these kinds of investments?
Like if parm cheese would do something for animal advocacy, like in humane treatment, then I’d like them more.
That said, woooow. I love athletic women 💗
- you don't see the ad and think "wow, that athlete is holding this one brand of cheese, I'm gonna buy it"
  you mentally associate those two, and when you go to the supermarket, you see the brand and buy it out of instinct, since that brand gives you a good feeling subconsciously.
  or if you ask yourself "I never bought parmesam cheese before, which brand is good? oh I've seen this one before, it must be good"
  
  I get what you’re saying, I’ll try to observe how often I do that
- I mean marketing these days is mostly just shouting brand names at you so that when you arrive at the aisle of 44 differently labeled permutations of the same 3 products made by the same 3 companies you'll make a decision based on "I've heard of this brand before."

This is wholesome ♥
- It's a fucking ad for cheese

Is this Italy's version of athletes being sponsored by Mc Donald's or Coke?

I love Reggiano in any case, the best.

Imagine when she rips one of those parmesan farts
- No thanks

.

She probably smells fantastic! LOL AI.
