Damn Old Movie Night

Last evenings Damn Old Movie was Scaramouche (anybody who wants to make Queen jokes, get it out of your system, cause I'm not doing it for you).



As you can see, Scaramouche is primarily about bad pants, giant hooters and powdered-wig wearing mofos. French Royalty, the ever popular am-I-in-love-with-my-sister dilemma, and lots of nifty fencing (in the aforementioned bad pants) abound.

It's a fantastic film to watch when you've been hitting the bottle, the only problem being maintaining an optimum level of wastedness throughout. Your persistence is rewarded with sheer unadulterated cheese at the film's conclusion, with people shooting lines off like, " I should be burned at the stake for loving you...burnt to a cinder!" If you're drunk enough, this should have you laughing and spilling enough beer to ruin the slipcover on the couch. Extra points if you do a shot whenever someone kisses.

The swordfights rock. Ha! Swordfights.

Random Fruit Facts: The Passion Fruit

If there was a drunken passion fruit, I'd include it here, but for now you'll have to think of happy daiquiris or something.

"Passion Fruit is generally eaten fresh but may be cooked for use in sauces and fillings. Cut the fruit in half and scoop out the fleshy pulp (!!!) with a spoon."

Oh Mr Passion Fruit, you're so risqué....Learn more about the passion fruit's XXX love life here.
