I've never tasted arse (or Donkey), but Kale is disgusting. Pork Crackle on the other hand (done well mind you) surpasses Ambrosia as food of the Gods.

When I was living in Caulfield North I was doing the form for the spring carnival and I kept getting all these jewish kids ringing the bell for Halloween treats. I didn't have anything for them But it was bloody constant. So I went to the pub.

The next year I was in Aldi and they had a special on a massive bag of small packets full of pork scratchings. So that year every kid got a small packet. For the next 5 years never got a doorknock.

In the bars in Thailand they have regular parties in the bars and pigs are put on spits. I usually ask for leftovers for the wonder poodle but the rest of the household scoff the crackling and she doesn't get much. Cold beers, loose women and roasted pigs. What are you waiting for Stui?

All I can say is, I think it's quite appropriate that we're discussing kale and crackling in a thread about crimes against humanity. ;)

Whenever I read about spitroasted pig I can't help think of my sons ex in a MMF threeway. But otherwise, sounds frigging brilliant.

And David, Kale is a crime against humanity and a temporary triumph of good marketing over taste. If you don't like pork crackling, you've never had it done right. :wink:

I was on jury duty for an armed robbery /home invasion that happened neat DTM. The ned of Bungower rd Somerville.

The 2 accused had taken the then girlfriend of another accused (who was not present so he either pleaded guilty, was on the lam or dead). and gone to a pokies venue in Narre Warren and then onto a motel where they spitroasted her and took videos and put in on the net. The Judge said the jury didn't need to see the video as it was irrelevant and the woman was not on trial. She was back in Moe with her new baby and had never had employment. Anyhoo a Polish lady in her 60s was on the jury and wanted to know what spit roasting meant. The Foremen said it was irrelevant but she insisted. One of the other jurors, a woman in her 40s took her into the toilet and told her. She came out in shock and 3 or 4 of us were pissing ourselves laughing.

My education it seems has been somewhat lacking, I wasn't aware of that at all.

That's ethnic cleansing. If I read the article correctly, Hitler was aware of this and commented on it, I wonder if that was the prototype for the Holocaust?

I think it's been mentioned in that article or another one I was reading that it's the massacre that prompted the invention of the word "genocide". Of course, it's far from the first instance of such systematic violence in human history (see any number of anti-Jewish pogroms throughout the Middle Ages for starters), but it does have a fair claim to being the first act of ethnic cleansing on such a huge scale in modern history. And the Turkish government and its apologists deny its existence to this day.

Hmmm, nothing to do with the proliferation of the religion of peace in the UK of course.....

Homophobic attacks in London during 2018 have almost doubled since 2014, London Metropolitan Police report.

No it's not. Like anti Jewish attacks in Paris, if you import hatred and intolerance into your country then this is what you get. These are people who throw gays off buildings in their homelands but you expect peace and love in the west?
