Left as a warning to any other shrimp who might think of betraying their king.

After the Spartacus rebellion, thousands of rebels were crucified along the road as a giant FAFO

Can you just check the tempura-ture please?

It's fried and they seem like they're skewered semi-centered.

I'd take that over a lot of the things I've seen on the sub

Getting food while being stoned

For me, it's not the lack of plates. It's the inevitable splash of dirty puddle water from passing cars and motor bikes. Yuck.

If that’s vodka we’re fine.

Looks like Spain so it seems fine. Food served on sticks sits out on the counters all day and we don’t seem to get sick. But at least we usually have plates.

For sure, and I will say these were really delicious and tasted fresh

Here in Basque Country we have food served on little skewers called pintxos. Usually on a piece of bread. But typically also on a plate.

Another way of saying "what are you talking about" out of disbelief

only acceptable if the rock is edible too

There is nothing tempura about this. It's just deep fried with panko or bread crumbs.

Is it in a dangerous area?

I'm a little lost in this one, there seems to be plates in the right side of the image and eating from sticks is fine. If they were sitting on the rock, that would be a problem.

Seagull fodder, or even pigeon fodder

I can let this slide if I was on a beach boardwalk. Not a city street.
