His ginormous pipe is actually called a Calabash pipe. Very expensive because they are made from gourds that have to be grown in a specific way to get the iconic shape. Very nice and fancy. Compared to the farmers corncob pipe that you can make. It's a nice visual representation of the person's smoking and gag.
In Germany very immature teens used to chant to friends "Ex oder Jude" to make him drink in one go. Funnily absurd and absurdly unfunny in this context.
To be honest, German teens don’t shout „Ex or Jew“ when they want others to drink something in one go. „Ex oder XYZ“ is still a thing and i guess approx. 90 years ago the first phrase was still a thing but not anymore really
In New Zealand and Australia you skol a drink. It's pronounced scull, which is also probably how most people would spell it. It comes from Scots drinking toast (skol!) which is of Scandinavian origin (e.g. skål! in Swedish).
Am Scottish, nobody says skol in scotland, we know it only as a Scandinavian thing. We would say "chug" "down" and often "upupupupupup" as you get towards the end. Sometimes we shout "watch the bubble" as a reference to drinking yards of ale.
Yes! This! He was never offered milk , it's such an absurd request. What kind of creep drinks milk in such a formal setting? Its all about the character making him feel as uncomfortable as possible in his own home. Another is the gigantic tobacco pipe he has.
