This food stinks
Best not be bitter
Recently bought by the Japanese, and shipped to Kyoto.
The cathedral now has Sake in the font.
It’s much more fun than Holy-water.
Waiter! This is making my tastes sore!
We can deliver to your suite.
Could be worse; it could have said “Testes”. 😛
When life gives you lemons, open a restaurant.
The Jackdaw of Reims. (From Ingoldsby’s Legends)
He curs’d him in eating, he curs’d him in drinking, 90
He curs’d him in coughing, in sneezing, in winking;
He curs’d him in sitting, in standing, in lying;
He curs’d him in walking, in riding, in flying;
He curs’d him in living, he curs’d him in dying!
Never was heard such a terrible curse!
For dessert, try the lemon tart.
@Yu No Hoo 0417. I’d rather make Lemon Meringue. I love Lemon Meringue.
However, I have never managed to make one that does not resemble a flat, rather chewy, sweet pancake. Which I then spread Strawberry Jam on, and eat.
Still tastes good though, but it lacks that je ne sais quoi. 🙄
eat = ate
Are those “fly-specks over the whole ganz megillah.
Come to Cafe Reims for our house specialty:
Sour weiners served by saucy tarts!
@Marum:
Nice application of the Yiddish, mate.
Deserving of some naches.
And maybe even a bissel kvelling.
(I said naches, not nachos. But nachos would go well with naches.)
@Pete 0444. I heard a song a few years ago, on the radio – Mein Schwester Schrien. = My Sister Cries.
During the song I kept thinking, my German is getting S/house, I can hear the words, but I can’t quite understand them.
Then, at the end, when they gave the credits, the penny dropped. It was in Yiddish. The two languages are so similar.
Sort of like Tokpisin is to English.
ie. Yu tuapela yu mekim wanem? = You two. What are you doing?
BTW. In that context, it is usually said while shaking your head, and and making “tch tch tch” sounds with your tongue. 😀
I love languages and linguistics. They make my brain smile.
BTW In relation to your Yiddish comments. Pride cometh before the FAIL.
You can’t Sour with the Eagles if you’re Henging with the Turkeys.
Specialty drink: Whiskey Sour
Specialty candy: Sour Balls
Mmmm … Tastes!
– 1,2,3,4 … Tasting, tasting …
We are high quality sourry …
@Marum 5:04,
Then I think you’ll get a real kick outta this clip from The Frisco Kid:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEAXGY_HFU0
“Stay away from the free pistachio ice cream! It done turned.” -‘Mater (from “Cars II”)
I won’t sweet-talk about it, but although I’m a bit salty I’m not going to be bitter about this.
@Marum 4:08am: I am trying to figure out how the hunch back tastes like.
Don’t say we didn’t warn you!
Bitter to the last drop.
Serving the highest quality crap there is.
Can you handle the gripping taste of the sour milk…
Try it at our Titty Bar today
Does umami know what you’re eating?
The pasta is to die from!
When Life gives you lemons, make lemonade. Then dump it over Life’s head!
So sour-y, but this is a repeat! https://engrish.com/2013/09/try-the-old-milk/
