I think that guy from the Spider-Man movies, Toblerone, eats those.
I don’t remember any Tobey Maguire in a Spiderman movie. Peter Parker fought Dr. Doom and the Green Goblin, not violent 19th-century coal miners from the anthracite fields of eastern Pennsylvania.
Don’t be ridiculous. Molly McGuires didn’t mine coal, they sold cockles and mussels alive-O!
Molly Malone didn’t sell cockles and mussels, he sold beer at his bar Cheers.
No, the Molly Malone wasn’t carrying shellfish - she was running rum when the Americans (cutters Walcott and Dexter) sank her on March 22 1929. Caused a bit of a stir internationally, since it happened well outside US territorial waters!
ETA: bah! Ah well, next up, run with whichever you see fit.
I don’t recall alcohol playing a significant part in the movie Sam Malone and its sequel I’m Alone 2: Lost in New York. Though, they were no doubt better if you watched them while drinking.
I don’t know if Java Man, better known as*** Home alone, ***discovered alcohol, but he did master two important plot devices used in those movies, fire and tools.
Oh yeah! When I was a kid, I always wanted one of those Homo Erectus sets. My parents thought they were only for boys though. . . :rolleyes: what a couple of pithrecanthropines!
You’ve always wanted an erector? They’re super when you’re with someone you’re naked with, but they can be a bit embarasing when you’re standing in front of a class and giving a speech. Not that it’s happened to me.
As an Englishman, I find your erection a serious embarrassment - I mean, it only comes around every four years, but it seems like one’s no sooner over than you’re obsessing over the next one!
An election sometimes embarrasses the person who’s kicked out of a game by the umpire, but sometimes it’s a calculated move, as when a manager figures he’ll fire up his team by arguing a bad call until he gets the boot from the field and dugout.
What about managers getting fired? I know that in the Hanna-Barbera cartoon The Ejections, George was always getting fired by his manager.
And then sink to the bottom of the ocean, because Jetson is the other kind of shipwreck cargo that isn’t flotsam.
I guess some shipwreck cargo is jetsam, since that mineral is used in drywall, fertilizer, and plaster, and (in the form known as alabaster) even fine sculpture.
We just had some drywall and plastering done. You hear some bad stories about gypsums, but the ones who did ours made a first-class job on it, and reasonably priced too.
I guess you could consider yourself lucky that they weren’t drinking on the job and therefore a little gypsy and prone to sloppy work and mistakes.
I never thought Tipsy Hedren’s work in the movies was sloppy.
If you’re talking about that Swedish girl in the books by Astrid Lindgren, Tippi had the last name of Longstocking, not Hedren.
I don’t know if they have them in Sweden but we used to have some pippis living in the loft space. Bat droppings are pain to get rid of, let me tell you.
You’re thinking of that basketball player right? I don’t know if he had bats in his belfry but when he played in Chicago he was known as “No Tippin’ Pipistrelle.”
