There is eating and drinking / a snack in a stand of both sides
Submitted by: dunno source via Engrish Funny Submissions
We must make a stand of both sides!
I am supposed to eat and drink in both sides at once?
It’s called multitasking.
It is called prevarication, taking a stand on both sides.
Followed, of course, by postvarication.
I’m sure Kellogg’s will be making a similar cereal soon…
This place doesn’t look like a restaurant, why would they be offering food, and on both sides. I would be a bit suspecious.
As it’s a souvenir shop it is very likely in an airport or train station, so food being that close and to either side isn’t unreasonable
I’ve looked at stand from both sides now
From eat and drink, and still somehow
It’s stand’s illusions I recall.
I really don’t know stand at all.
You really like that poem, don’t you? That is at least the second time I’ve seen you apply it to a Funny.
You sure you’re not really an elephant? You never seem to forget! But that is not a poem, per se. It was a monster hit song for Judy Collins, circa 1968 would be my offhand guess. (“Both Sides Now” is the name of the song, of course.)
I know, but are songs not poems set to music?
Sometimes. Often they’re gibberish set to music!
Not the good ones!
My favorite songs are always ones that convey a powerful meaning in the lyrics, but I can enjoy some songs for which the lyrics are of not much account.
Me, too. Of course, if the music is bad, sometimes even the best lyrics cannot save it. I also, however, listen to music without lyrics, or foreign songs in which I cannot understand the lyrics.
Me, too. I love Rammstein, even though I have absolutely no idea what he’s saying. I still listen to Radio Havana on the shortwave, because they have fantastic Cuban music, even though I don’t understand a word, hardly. (Of course, their news and editorial segments are always hilarious, although not because they’re in Engrish, since the announcers all speak nearly flawless, American-accented English).
I’m more into Japanese music, which does occasionally contain Engrish.
Not “Both Sides Now,” but it shore is purty.
“Angelic” comes to mind. I probably shouldn’t admit this in public, but her “The Moon’s a Harsh Mistress” still brings me to the edge of tears what, thirty-five years on? Yeesh, I’m gettin’ old….
I showed this to a twelve year old, admittedly one that loves music, and she was stunned. A new fan!
Great art and music is timeless.
A lesson most of us old folks have come to appreciate, although it may be a hard sell for some young’uns…
Are you saying that the cake is a lie?
Whore dust, crap and rubbish cake,
with sauce of Steven, Dave and Jake,
a desert cum vanilla shake:
I looked at snacks that way.
You don’t eat out much any more?
He’s too busy snacking to eat out!
Who is Jake? Is he related to Mike?
Into the Canteen of Eating and Drinking rode the valiant six hundred,
Snacking to the left of them, snacking to the right of them…
Let’s face it, under these circumstances, who cares about up and downing?
The body armor was designed to stand up to Little Debbies and Twinkies, but no one told us that they had militarized fried pies, pop tarts, and corn dogs.
They’ve deployed fried pies? Hell’s bells, isn’t there something in the Geneva Convention or the CWC banning those? Along with tinned Three Bean Mix.
Did the fried pies enlist, or were they drafted?
They fight for God and country. Take cover! The Kosher deli is returning matzo ball mortar fire.
God, I wish there were a good Kosher deli within matzo ball fire range of this place! About the only things I really miss about New York are the foods. Oh, for a good Kosher corned beef sandwich right about now (and yes, I recall from some previous comment that some folks here don’t even know what corned beef is, but if you can’t get it where you are, ignorance is bliss in this case).
I Crockpot slow-cook an excellent beef brisket.
What’s your basic seasoning and routine? What do you serve it with?
Tell all, please!
Go to the food network web site. There is procedure for brining a brisket to make corned beef.
Great that the sign tells us eating & drinking are in a standoff with snacks, but the ‘both sides’ seems redundant.
If it’s a Mexican standoff, will they serve tortilla chips and salsa?
They are loading high velocity large bore burritos with cheese enchilada gravy.
They intend to wear us down with burrito bombardment, eh? Well, if it’s a war of nutrition they want…
ISSUE UMBRELLAS! THE AUSTRALIANS ARE FIRING VEGEMITE!
War is hell. Chemical warfare is worse.
Issue everyone emergency cracker and buttered toast rations. Officers, women and children get orange marmalade.
Isn’t that banned under the Geneva Convention?
They escalated it with salsa and burritos.
The answer is blowing in the wind.
Well, we all know that pork pulled a wind.
