I
wasn't going to write a weekly roundup tonight- until about an hour
ago the only thing worth mentioning- aside a brilliant birthday (38,
yikes)- was comedian Gary Delaney liking my Instagram comment about herbs.
But
just an hour or so ago, Jorge Masvidal- #4 welterweight
in the UFC and recently crowned
'BMF'- dropped this on his
Instagram.
What
you're seeing here, for the uninitiated, is Masvidal suggesting the
US government are claiming any death would be put down to COVID-19,
even the fictional ones. The meme of course relates to the 1983
Al Pacino movie Scarface, in which Tony Montana (Pacino) fights to
the top of the US cocaine trade, only to be toppled after refusing an
order from his Venezuelan business partner Ales Sosa (Paul Shernar).
Imagine,
if you will, Sosa's abject humiliation. After sending hundreds of
henchmen to kill Tony- with one dude successfully shooting him,
poetically, in the back- Sosa then finds the whole thing marked down to
coronavirus.
Hence:
Masvidal
obviously gets it.
