Io Capitano - Io Rimasto Male

merde allors!

un conte de deux jeunes amis senegalais qui sont entre des dizaines de milliers de gens sub sahariennes 

qui chaque annee essayent immigrer en europe 

en traversant la saraha 

(beaucoup entre eux mourent ne sortent jamais)

puis ceux qui ont survecu

tentent de traverser la mediteranee

dans les bateux souvent mal preparees

et a nouveau, beaucoup entre eux se noyent dans le processus

tout le temps, ils sont dependents aux trafiquants de merde

qui souvent les volent, violent, ou les vendre comme des esclaves

a n'importe qui ....

donc, c'est lourd mais c'est tres bien fait

word of the weak - jumentous

 

jumentous 

Of, relating to, or smelling like horse urine.

honestamente Brasil, não é você, sou eu

 

Olhando meu mapa de viagem, parece que estou evitando o Brasil.

mas nao e verdade!

de fato eu visitei uma vez, por um dia!

um dia irei direto para lá e resolverei meu português.

Eu desejo!

The 'C' Word o la bellissima sorpresa (da cazzo)

ma che sorpresa fighissima

prima ce la bellezza di avere un nuovo album da una banda che si segue da 35 anni

e che non hanno fatto niente da quasi venti anni

poi

ad ascoltarlo

sapendo che ce una canzone chiamato the c word

si pensa

bene bene, sarebbe qualche gioco di parole geniale con cunt

ma no!

il coro e in italiano!

e va -

'la parola c

cazzo cazzo cazzo

la vita e un cazzo'

quasi non ci credevo!

che regalone

mi sembrava fatto apposta per me

come i testi di masturbike di bad news

e la roba di masturbike/moto sega/chainsaw

quasi una codice privato 

solo per i pochissimi fans italofono di the comic strip presents

e in questo caso

certo ci saranno dei fans italofono di tism

ma non tantissimi

quindi, non ce solo una banda storica

che hanno fatto un disco nuovo

ed e fortissimo

(che spesso non e il caso)

ma di piu

ce una canzone

che e centrato su una parolaccia italiana! 

dunque

tutti insieme-

la parola c

...

glücklich, glücklich, freude, freude

 

ich will, was sie haben...

il y a quelq'un?

 

non? 

c'est meilleur comme ca

(pour tout le monde, litteralement)

Barbaren!

its kind of like the excellent period drama rome

but with more blonde hair

and less imposing architecture

there are still plenty of romans

getting their arses kicked in the dark, scary wald

und es ist schon!

wanna fight me mate? (over house price)

reporter - "have you done any special training for this fight?"

seller - "yes, more cigarettes..."

a batty brit wants more for his house

than the purchaser is willing to pay

what to do?

they organise a fight over it

whats not to like?

ps happy ending 

(no, not that kind)

after battering the seller, the massively larger and younger purchaser offers to split the difference

a banging remember me

sure its a cover

and most covers are pointless

with some notable exceptions

when the new artist adds something special

hellelujah by jeff buckley, all the along the watchtower by hendrix or hurt by johnny cash for egs

(and anything paul kelly turns his genius hand to)

even though i cant be arsed trying to keep up with all his tenthousiad output these days

many moons ago

hearing this as intro/outro music to the fitba

it really got its catchy hooks into me

(no fishies were harmed in the etc)

and we're doomed...

Eddie secgð-

an leornere secgð-

nōt ā bǣd æfērt, Eddie...

so she said...

why the long face?

bangkok, oriental city

or is it?

its official name is;

Krung Thep Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Ayuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udomratchaniwet Mahasathan Amon Piman Awatan Sathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukam Prasi

try saying that after a few sabai sabais and stay fashionable!

satsuma samurai!

dig satsumas?

into samurai?

well...

get into japanese history of the 17th century

with all the fun and frolics of 

the tokugawa shogunate!

ming china!

and

all the satsuma samurai you can handle!

BANGING BEES

quem sabia que falavam português na ilha de wight?

marchando sin letras

Has nunca escuchado el himno nacional de espana?

esta .... okay

pero

las letras no son muy imaginativas

porque no hay!

varios han intentados de poner letras

por ejemplo, franco

(que sorpresa que un fascista quisiera hacerlo)

ahora pero oficialmente no se las usan

naturalmente

mucha gente en el gran extranjero no saben este hecho

que nos ha regalado unos momentos super chistosos

bwajajajaja!

Ortega cavó otro hoyo!

el $50bn (no) canal Nica continua a no occurir despues de siglos...

quizas en vez de un tirano ex rebelde y un empresario chino poco fiable

se necesita a dale!

maKedonia

@dennis.fang Replying to @peowpeowpeow22 Why I pronounce “Macedonia” with a “k”. #Macedonia #Macedon #AlexanderTheGreat #AncientGreece #History #AncientHistory ♬ original sound - Dennis

back in 1295 

i was sitting on the steps outside a hostel on a balmy athenian night

chatting away to some peeps and asking advice for cheap eats nearby

(with a random e who would change my world and a who wouldnt)

the american bloke mentioned a nearby restaurant, macedonia

and called it maKedonia

that sounded odd

and i thought

typical gringo tonto 

(osea unas palabras parecidas en ingles)

the correct pronunciation question has sat percolating in my brain

since that long distant time

but never near enough to the top to actually be arsed to find the answer

skip forward those 730 years

it occurred to me to ask my hellenic good mate

the estimable kýrios chickens

(a bit of portu/greco/frankish humour there)

and the gringo wasnt so tonto after all!

it is maKedonia!

gah!

lesson - dont count your chickens, but do ask them about greek pronunciation 

(and perhaps something re generalising about nationalities)
