Weekend Worstoff 59

A few more from my China trip. La Pavoni in Nanjing could be a little slice of Midland. Apart from the artistic impreetion, which Midland definitely doesn’t have.

    Zegna. Ferrari. Ducati. La Pavoni. With all due respect, Bob, I think it’s Italian.

    Speaking of tongues, robot octopii aside, that lion photo is the most disturbing post since Alsatian Rampant, TLA.

    … and yes, groggery is an excellent name, even if slightly disreputable.

      Call me a super-sleuth, but I would’ve thought the police could perhaps start by keeping an eye out for bearded men on motorcycles, often with large patches on their backs saying things like ‘Gypsy Joker’ or ‘Coffin Cheater’.

  6. And this lion. Is there a legitimate excuse for what it’s doing?
