THIS FALL elephant noise BE READY crash noiseFOR ACTION (ACTION...action...) police sirens

you PAY for the WHOLE SEAT but you only need THE EDGE
According to knowyourmeme, this is a photo from a 2018 session of Japanese Parliament. The guy in the center is calling for a vote on a controversial bill, and a bunch of opposition party members are attempting to physically prevent him from doing so. Apparently this is a thing they do in the Japanese Parliament sometimes?
From the article:
It should be noted that physical altercations are not exactly a rarity in Japanese Parliament
I'm actually surprised. Not because I believe Japanese are passive and peaceful, very false stereotypes.
But this one got me by surprise. Backstabbing and assassination - I could see it, brawling not so much.
I'm now looking forward to Parliamentary Shounen Anime
God that'd actually be amazing.
Then some dude comes out of nowhere in the finale and offs Definitely-Not-Shinzo-Abe with the power of GUN
If you look up politicians brawl or something on an image search, you find a lot of these photos from all around the globe... I didn't know that was a thing. What a pathetic display.
"some chocolate that fell on the ground"
Corrected, thx I am still learning.
All good! "Fell" is the past tense of "fall". Aternatively in some cases you could say "did fall", though in modern English that's usually used as an affirmative to a question about the fallen status of the chocolate (e.g. [which is short for the Latin "exemplia gratia" , meaning "for example"], Question: "Did the chocolate fall?" Answer: "Yes, the chocolate did fall" or "Yes, it did fall").
There are actually other (irrelevant) meanings of the word "fell"; as an adjective in "a fell beast" for example, "fell" means "fierce, cruel, terrible, or dreadful"; or as a verb meaning "to knock, strike, shoot, or cut down; cause to fall" for example " to fell a moose" or "to fell a tree."
the original makes sense if you read it in a Kentucky Fried internal monologue
This is just a really fun image. Lots of meme potential
We came home one evening and discovered our 10lb wiener-pinscher had eaten a whole dish of Dove dark Chocolates while we were away. Easily a couple of dozen pieces... All that was left were little bits of foil wrappers all over the floor where he attempted to peel each one open. I'da really liked to have seen how he was doing that. We just knew he was fixin' to die. Aside from looking guilty as hell, he showed zero signs of any ill effects. There's no telling how much of the foil wrappers he ate either...
Chocolate is less of a poison to dogs than grapes are. Must be some kind of sliding scale.
Xylitol (in things like Trident and low sugar peanut butter) is probably the most dangerous ingredient in your house for dogs, followed by grapes and raisins. Not sure why chocolate gets all the attention.
A westie mix I had once ate 9 Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. I called the vet, and they told me to give her 10cc of peroxide every 15 minutes until she vomited.
After doing so for 90 minutes, I called them again, and they told me to stop, and that she'd probably be fine, which she was.
feel free."My family and me"
Correct, thx.
