Yeah, I had a similar problem.

My wife came into the kitchen and caught me jumping, gyrating and flailing my hands and feet around while all the while holding a bottle of orange juice.

She asked me just what the hell was going on, so I explained to her.

"It says here, 'Shake thoroughly before drinking'".

James Bond walks into a bar and sizes up the local talent.

He sees a gorgeous blonde sitting on a bar stool.

He walks up, catlike, to the bar, orders a vodka martini (shaken, not stirred!), puts his hand on the blonde's knee and says, suavely:

"Bond. JAMES Bond."

The blonde gets off the stool and kicks Bond squarely in the balls. As Bond is doubled over in pain, she administers a powerful right uppercut to his chin. Mercifully, he sinks into unconsciousness and falls to the floor.

The blonde says:

"Off. FUCK off."

You know how in certain Shakespearian dramas, there is often a bit of comic relief after a point of very high tension, like in Act II, Scene 3 of Macbeth, where, just after Macbeth has murdered King Duncan and told Lady Macbeth that he is now haunted by the horror of his deed, the drunk porter comes on stage and acts like a blithering idiot?

That is Kadyrov, through and through - whenever the war in Ukraine reaches a very tense point - a new Russian missile bombardment causing tragedy or a bunch of Wagner goons wreaking havoc on civilians, you can count of him to show up and give us all a laugh due to some new outburst of idiocy.

This actually happened, sort of, in Sheridan’s play « The Rivals ».

When it was performed the first night, the actor playing Sir Lucius O’Trigger was booed, and yelled to the audience « By the pow'rs, is it personal? — is it me, or the matter? », meaning «  Are you booing my character, or my performance? ». Unluckily for him, it was both. Sheridan rewrote the play and also replaced the actor for the next performance.
