Yo, Adrian, The Best Meat

I saw this ceramic tile sign at a shop in Mijas Pueblo last week. Although I'm no fan of Sylvester Stallone, I could immediately hear Rocky yelling "Yo, Adrian!!!" Obviously, that's not what they intended.


A few minutes later, as San Geraldo got up from a bench and crossed the street to meet us, I noticed a sign in the background behind him.

THINK WHAT YOU WILL...

Four seconds is all I could bear...

  1. It must be cold for San Geraldo to be so bundled up.

      Didn't like Rocky. Don't like Stallone. Springlike day today. I even left my jacket home when I went to lunch (although the walk home was a bit chillier than I expected).

      That's a shop that sells the parts (frames and tiles) to make your own signs of any size.

      Those are just some examples of what you can have done. Easily. Even in Welsh!

  6. I am proud to say I have never seen a single Sylvester Stallone movie, and nor do I ever intend seeing one! I might have known he is a Dump supporter...

      I saw part of "Rocky" (the first) and couldn't get through it. I only know "Yo, Adrian" from all the jokes since then.

      It's so nice when I don't have to say much of anything.

    I agree with you about Stallone. Talk about a meathead.

      I feel the same about Stallone. I used to just shudder. Now I'm completely disgusted.
