Food & Life Food-related funny
Posted by Curt Holman @Curt_Holman on Wed, Aug 8, 2007 at 4:17 PM
Two amusing things I found via Livejournal:
First, Livejournal blogger ‘Robyn_Ma’ writes hilariously about hot-headed chef Gordon Ramsay’s show “Kitchen Nightmares†on BBC America: “This is the show where he goes in and troubleshoots dying restaurants in his incomparable manner, and then the restaurants turn around and become successful. When he comes in, rats are shitting in the crème brûlée and the head waiter is shooting heroin into his dick in full view of the diners and the owner is keeping financial records on toilet paper with crayons. Gordon comes in and says 'Everything is fuckin' bollocks, you know that, yeah?' and at the end of the show everything is awesome and waitresses dressed as faeries are serving glazed duck to important British film producers and Gordon looks at the camera and says 'I am fuckin' God, mate' and, y'know, the end.†The blog entry also links to a YouTube clip from the show.
Also, Livejournal blogger ‘cleverusername2’ drew my attention to something I missed: the McDonald’s “I’d Hit It†banner-ad controversy from 2005, which featured a guy saying “Double cheeseburger? I’d hit it†(“Evidently unclear on the concept,†says ‘cleverusername2’). Here’s the link to the pertinent Wikipedia article.
