Who says there ain’t no justice? Watch Mr. Bad-ass Jaywalker get a dose of it as he stares down an approaching motorist. Like, he could’ve waved “Thank you for letting me cross” and hustled to the sidewalk–but no, he had to be a tough guy.
Mr. Utility Pole was not impressed.
Not many people are a match with large poles
Or small Lithuanians. (Sorry. I just couldn’t resist.) 😛
Are you alluding to the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth/Empire that once ruled Europe from the Black Sea to the Baltic… and yet no one’s ever heard of it?
How did you know? — especially since you never heard of it? 🙂 🙂
It’s just so odd that this major imperial enterprise is almost never mentioned anywhere. I think it might be in “Taras Bulba.”
“Taras Bulba,” is a good 1962 action movie staring Tony Curtis, and Yul Brynner as Taras Bulba, leader of the Cossacks. It must have been good, for I remember watching it on TV way back in the sixties.
You’ll remember that “the Poles” were the bad guys in the movie, oppressing the Cossacks. Must’ve been that seldom-thought-of Polish Empire (well, half-Polish, half-Lithuanian).
I have a sense that we haven’t yet heard the end of those Lithuanians and Poles. Will they turn up in Scurveyshire next? 😳
First they’d have to break out of the 16th century. Or was it the 17th?
This is like a parable of people talking big on social media…
Poetic justice.
