    coppery, metal thing … er … I dunno.
    Is it the literal translation of schadenfreude?

    Believe it may be a reference to that very rare commodity in today’s world. Something that is indeed what it says it is.

    Were his last words: “I could eat a horse.”?

    You have to say that it is value for money … $12.94 for the Quad-Bypass. Especially when you consider that you almost certainly have enough for a family of 4 off the one item.

    That restaurant is kinda sick. At least pawn shops don’t call themselves Suicide Centres.

    Oh FFS. Not everyone’s seen ‘Blackadder’, you see.

    Flu?

    Sounds more like that whitish powdery thing for the latter!

    What’s Blackadder got to do with it?

    Blackadder: Baldrick, have you no idea what irony is?

    Baldrick: Yes, it’s like goldy and bronzy only it’s made out of iron.

    Aha – now I see through a glass darkly! Many thanks, SE. That also makes sense of DrMakajaz’s comment. I thought he was accusing Timmy of indulging in cocaine, or something.

    Alternatively, God is an iron. (The title of a science fiction story.)

    Extending from he who commits a felony is a felon.
