Brits are drinking animal dung (http://www.gadling.com/2008/04/10/expensive-caffeine-coffee-made-from-animal-dung-goes-for-50-a/?icid=100214839x1159582429x1080131975)

Just tell me one thing - does it live up to your standard of blandness?

The sad thing is that there are people in London that will willingly pay for it.......a cheap cup of coffee from my local discount supermarket would taste much the same anyway  ;)

oooo a hit on the brits... ooo.. I will remember this.. oh yes.. I will *evil*

uh huh  :-*

Ooooh. I saw a TV insert on this a few months back at Reuters.com. Apparently it really is all the rage. Thank goodness I don't drink coffee.

Grasshopper dipped in Chocolate anybody?
:P

~Simone.

I nearly bought a packet of this in York - and I don't even drink coffee.
Unfortunately I didn't and cant say much more about this, except the urge to drink cat->-bleeped-<- coffee hasn't left me in the four years since.

PS

Buying the speciality beans was much cheaper, 30 quid for a packet - a good many cups for that.

How about squirrel soup?

Cindy's recipe for squirrel soup

Firstly: put a pot of water on the stove to boil;
Secondly: take squirrel off hook above the stove;
Thirdly: get a funnel and insert into squirrel's backside;
Fourthly: Put bowl on table and hold squirrel above the bowl.
Fifthly: pour hot  water into funnel.
Sixthly: hold both ends of squired tightly and shake vigorously then pour into bowl;
"Ta, da!!" Final result, The best tasting squirrel soup on this side of the Rockies!

Yah that taught them squirrels!!! lol

turd coffee? Not my cup of tea.

As the resident expert on turds, I feel the need to point out that the brief article neglected to say that the beans the civets eat are difficult to make tasty coffee from.  After passing through the animals digestive system, the beans are better prepared to release the great flavor that had been locked within.

I can't afford it, so I can't say what it tastes like, though one word comes to mind.

Thanks, I needed the laugh.

Hi Sheena, Happy that you did. I love humor as do a few others here.

Cindy

what else can we make fun of Brits for?

any ideas?

a) Losing the American Revolution
b) losing the war of 1812 to America (bonus for the best troops getting their ass kicked and turning and running at New Orleans - even though it didn't matter, the war had ended the week before).
c) Losing WWI
d) The Treaty of Versailles
e) Almost losing WWII
f) Ruining the career of Allen Turing after he helped them win the war (no points for America here, we did the same to Robert Oppenhimer)

And the winner is....

British cooking, quickly followed by the Prince using a military aircraft to get a little something from his GF last weekend, not even the Bush twins are that bad.

oh yeah, I just read that helicopter thing today.

if you could've,, you would've.

not me.  I'd have consideration for the neighbors and the other occupants of the place.


I, unlike your prince, am a gentleperson.

unless, you are saying that if I could do his girlfriend, I would have.  That would be correct.

Hi Rebis
You are a gentle person, me too. Maybe we should start gentle persons club  ;D

Oh I just love this thread.

More things to make fun of Brits for:

The Spice Girls.
Chavs.
Gordon Brown.
The fact that there are more scare "English" dialects and accents in just greater London than all the rest of the world combined. And that's not counting the foreigners, who actually on the whole speak English fairly well. ;D

see your Spice Girls and raise you Wham waking you up before they Go-Go.

Neville Chamberlain

Neville Chamberlain

Yeah that's a guy whose never going to get any respect.  I'm not all that sure, given what he could really do, that he didn't do all he could.  He had no power behind him, no way to force any other possible outcome, he was negotiating out of weakness not strength and everyone knew it.  He goes to meet Hitler with no threat was like sending someone to a gun fight with a steak knife. 

He could have used martial arts to kill hitler, or at least break hitler's jaw so he couldn't give anyone any orders.

Neville Chamberlain, Ninja Prime Minister - could be a graphic novel in there somewhere.

Doing special opps missions in ww2, capturing the enigma machine - all sounds fun.

How embarrassing, and kind of ticked off some, the spell check playing tricks again, sorry

Step outside of the influence of Gtr. London and your ability to recognise English as a language becomes seriously challenged  :o

your ability to recognise English as a language becomes seriously challenged

Ditto the Deep South in the United States.

when he's through with adolph maybe we could forward him to the future to handle bush/cheney

Perhaps in rural poor educated areas but in the cities the accent is hardy noticeable.

How many month's worth of soup can you get out of one squirrel?

Well I suppose it all depends on the size of the squirrel and how big your appetite is.

What about Kentucky fried parrot.

We didn't lose the American Revolution, we just get fed up of your whining  :D
And I reckon we did alright in WWII, it's a small country - should be easy to waltz through.

But the cooking...okay...admit to that. And to the thing about Allen Turing, but he was gay and so deserved everything he got.

So, one of you finally show your sunlight deprived faces to stand up for yourselves.


And.  It turns out to be the one in the dress.          :laugh:  :laugh:  :laugh:

Too funny Rebis!

I am just leaving Queensland where if you're out in the sun during summer for more than 5 minutes you have third degree sunburn!!  AAAAnnnnd summer covers spring and autumn, those seasons do not exist!!! We sweat 24/7 because the humidity is high, fierce thunderstorms and cyclones between December and March, give me the cold climate any day!!  Hahaha
The sun is so over rated, lol.  :laugh:
I am going to New South Wales, up in the mountains where there is no summer.  Talk about extremes!!  Story of my life! *sighs*

I never got sunburns, I just keep getting darker. Well up till a couple of years ago, I don't expose myself to the sun as I use to

Touche. Though she does seem to have done a good enough number on Pete Doherty (Or did he do the number on her...) Now weren't those two together just the cutest couple...

~Simone.

even sadder are the people coming into the pub who use her as a fashion role model

Oh God. No.
