Boar on the floor! 🐖

Like in Billions when they ate that meal of little tiny French birds and crunching the bones and you have to eat them under a sheet or something.
Its an actual thing

The Billions Scene That Went Too Far - Looper

Bobby Axelrod's greed knows no bounds, which is demonstrated in his unsettling dining choice during "Billions" Season 3, Episode 6 in a scene that went too far.

The Ortolan birds are kept in darkness for weeks and are over-fed grapes and grain, which fattens them up (via CNBC). Things only get worse from there, as the birds are hurled into a vat of brandy to kill and marinade them simultaneously before being roasted and served up. Because of the controversial process that leads up to their consumption, eating Ortolans is illegal. However, powerfully wealthy people who can be protected from the legal system due to their status often indulge in the French delicacy. The fact that those who eat Ortolan birds have to wear napkins on their head to supposedly hide their shame from God while doing so says it all.

I vaguely recall watching Jeremy Clarkson eating one of these at some point.

We have this very famous "chef" in France, her name is Maité, she had a cooking show where she made traditional French dishes, really old school, lots of butter, wine, etc.

Anyway, there is a video of her eating an ortolan and it's.... disturbing. Viewers beware:


At 1:25, she literally says: I will do something not very pretty but I will start to suck it's butt.

Like a load of Peking duck hanging in the window
I reckon if she was a vampire she could suck half a liter of blood out of me

On the trip to Norway (or Sweden, what’s the difference anyway?):
“Hey guys, listen. Sure, they are young but hey, they are European…. they are soft!”

 

[snpark]

They all come from the same rapists anyway

Here for you Balifrog:

And it features some of the sickest one-liners in the series’ history, from Connor’s complaint that Marcia’s funeral plans include putting Logan “in a kilt like a f-cking Bay City Roller” to Tom’s casual observation that Swedes and Norwegians are “all descended from the same rapists.”

casual observation that Swedes and Norwegians are “all descended from the same rapists.”

If we go back 500 / 600 years it probably applies to whole Europe ?

Back to Adam and Eve when she asked God are we Black or white.
"You are what you are" he said

So Eve tells Adam. We are white.

How do you know that he says.

Because if we was black God would have said "You is what you is"

For the youngsters…

Tonight the first episode of White House Plumbers, an American series. Political satire.

At 9 PM Western Indonesia Time (10 PM Central Indonesia Time). It replaces the second season of Perry Mason which was rather good.

A nice role for Connor again:

“Somalia? Little bit car bomb-y.”

“So no Mogadishu then. We can offer you Slovakia or Slovenia!”
”Hmm, no ……. slo’s for me”

After a hilarious discussion about South and North Korea and Connor seeing himself in Nixon’s position who “opened up China”…..

”They won’t let you in a country with nukes. What about Oman?”
”Hmm, Oman, as a rich man’s Yemen, a poor man’s Saudi Arabia. Hmm…”

 

[snpark]

Yes that was a great line
Honey. Diplomatic plates. You can park anywhere!

Driving on the pavement is not a selling point.
