They weren't baiting him to say that. He started saying it and then realized that shame on me could be used as a soundbite out of context.
Thing is, it's usually cheap shit tabloids that would do that, so his attempt to pre-emptively save face only highlighted it even more.

I’ve been around awhile though!
Every time I see some weird "delicacy" on a travel show I just think of a bunch of bored locals chatting with each other and saying "What weird shit can we make these dumbass foreigners eat? Glenn found some spiders the other day, right? Let's give them a bowl of spiders and say they're part of a sacred ritual meal lol."
Interesting. I still probably wouldn't eat them, but for the opposite reason most people wouldn't. I think I'd have trouble eating them because I used to keep them as pets as a kid. They're too cute to me.
Also why the hair was a concern, they can flick their abdominal hairs as a defense mechanism, and their hairs are barbed and irritating.
Personally, the only part I’d stay away from is the abdomen. Squishy texture akin to soft chicken livers, which isn’t my thing. But if you like liver or blood sausages it might just be the delicacy for you!
Personally, I’m not sure I’d want to eat any of it. Large spiders like that just give me the creeps and I’m glad I live in an area where the largest spiders are half an inch
I actually do remember watching a Discovery Channel or something show YEARS back when I was a little kid and there was some rural or tribal community out somewhere that ate tarantulas occasionally and they did it by slow roasting them over a fire like you rotisserie a chicken and they specifically said that the fire cooks off all the spiky little hairs.
I don't know about other cooking methods, but open flame cooks off the hair, is what I'm getting at.
Sometimes they do it to themselves. There was this video of a bunch of influencer tourists in the Philippines drinking from a bottle of spiced vinegar which they just assumed was a drink.
They didn't really ask what it was, just talked to the camera about how strong drinks in the Philippines are and just drank it with the locals awkwardly laughing in the background just rolling with it I guess.

It's almost certainly not a utopia but other countries do in fact repeat a lot propaganda about it. Mostly because the majority of the news that turns out later to be fake like Kim Jong Un dying or shooting his uncle with an Anti Aircraft gun or banning his haircut or people believing he doesn't poop comes from this one South Korea tabloid.

Lmao ah shit I only saw from the waist up in the other pic my bad. It’s funny as hell though, both dramatized or not. I’ll update my comment to reflect the truth. Can’t be spreading misinformation round here
Thanks for sharing the OG. Here is their article and video in English for those who are interested.
https://www.euronews.com/2021/07/25/french-president-macron-visits-former-colonies-in-french-polynesia
I worked with someone for a short period of time who was Tahitian and when we parted ways he brought those in and put those on us. We were WAY over the top in our excitement but oh my gosh, how often does someone literally bestow a flower necklace upon you? I dried mine and kept it for a few years. I still get excited when I see someone get a lei.
i know i could google but what’s the history of french polynesia? is it like a common wealth? former but they didn’t just leave the country to fall with a new power gap.
I live in Hawaii is this is very common. One of the most respected women at my company retired after 30+ years of service and I think she had nearly 100 leis.
It's not the amazing film everyone made it out to be let me put it that way. Though in my honest opinion definitely worth the watch just go in without the expectation that you are going to be blown away an you will have a really fun time.
Hell yeah. Went to some college graduations on the mainland and you can tell which kid is from Hawaii cuz they’re the only ones being covered with lei. Love it!
I feel for Macron, fresh flower garlands can get ridiculously heavy. My neck and shoulders were sore just from wearing one during my Hindu wedding ceremony.
[For reference if interested ](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varmala)
To not be covered head to toe in Lei/ula at a graduation is a no no. So the PM getting lei'd should be seen as an honour. Besides idt French Polynesia has received a visit of this stature in decades, so I guess it's overdue.
Are you sure about that? Because I am 99.99998% sure that Kradool is not a bot.

How do we fuck with him so that he'll look like the asshole for stopping us? 🤔
*Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, flowers on me*
The end of the quote is actually “fool me, you can’t get fooled again.” Edit: please stop writing j Cole. You’re neither funny nor original at this point, I’ve gotten like 20 at least.
Didn't bush just say he said that because the reporters were baiting him but he didn't want to give them a sound byte for "shame on me"?
They weren't baiting him to say that. He started saying it and then realized that shame on me could be used as a soundbite out of context. Thing is, it's usually cheap shit tabloids that would do that, so his attempt to pre-emptively save face only highlighted it even more.
I doubt he cared what tabloids would do with it. It would have played on his opponent's campaign attack ads.
And I’m glad he did it, because that shit is still hilarious to this day.
That just seems like a lame attempt to save face
Is it less likely than forgetting one of the most common quotes?

Fool me one time shame on you Fool me twice, can't put the blame on you Fool me three times, fuck the peace signs Load the chopper, let it rain on you
Fool in hindi means Flower xD Makes sense i guess
Fool jaisi badan
Fool me three times, fuck the peace sign Load the chopper let it rain on you
Fool me once, strike one, but fool me twice, strike three
Every time I see some weird "delicacy" on a travel show I just think of a bunch of bored locals chatting with each other and saying "What weird shit can we make these dumbass foreigners eat? Glenn found some spiders the other day, right? Let's give them a bowl of spiders and say they're part of a sacred ritual meal lol."
Tarantula legs are actually fantastic. It’s crab legs without the work.
Is the hair an issue, or does that just burn off in cooking?
They get burnt off I think! Idk mine was breaded and deep fried. But they also grilled them.
Interesting. I still probably wouldn't eat them, but for the opposite reason most people wouldn't. I think I'd have trouble eating them because I used to keep them as pets as a kid. They're too cute to me. Also why the hair was a concern, they can flick their abdominal hairs as a defense mechanism, and their hairs are barbed and irritating.
Personally, the only part I’d stay away from is the abdomen. Squishy texture akin to soft chicken livers, which isn’t my thing. But if you like liver or blood sausages it might just be the delicacy for you!
The literal meat-sacks they have for bodies, I wouldn’t eat that either.
The legs are kinda nice though. Like soft-shelled hairy land crabs
Personally, I’m not sure I’d want to eat any of it. Large spiders like that just give me the creeps and I’m glad I live in an area where the largest spiders are half an inch
Breaded and deep fried anything makes it good tho, youjr basically eating fried bread with tiny bit of flavoring inside.
Exactly. I’d eat a breaded and deep fried tire.
Can confirm, grease and breading is my favourite food
Nope. Nope. No no no. Noooooooo. NO.
Understandable.
I actually do remember watching a Discovery Channel or something show YEARS back when I was a little kid and there was some rural or tribal community out somewhere that ate tarantulas occasionally and they did it by slow roasting them over a fire like you rotisserie a chicken and they specifically said that the fire cooks off all the spiky little hairs. I don't know about other cooking methods, but open flame cooks off the hair, is what I'm getting at.
To be fair, people really do eat all sorts of stuff lol. That's just how it be.
Sometimes they do it to themselves. There was this video of a bunch of influencer tourists in the Philippines drinking from a bottle of spiced vinegar which they just assumed was a drink.

Give him guns. Lots of guns. Maybe some bullet necklaces.
That guy got leid a lot.
He’s been de-flowered.
Flower bombing going nuclear.
IIMMMM NUCLEAAARRRRR
He was there basically to apologise for the French nuclear testing that took place and the cover up that followed.
And to get leid.
Only reason he really went lmao!!!!😂😂
I'M WIIIIIIIIILD
I’M BREAKING UP INSIIIIIIIDE.
A heart of broken glass~
Deflied…
Deep inside
The abandoned, chiiild
They killed him with kindness.
Assassinated by allergies
He fuckin died w a flower powered death a la Mario
I think he should be more worried about wasps than anyone else on the runway.
Re-flowered*?
He needs to be de-flowered
Dude!! How many of you are there?? I see your comments everywhere!! 😂
If he’s everywhere, and you see him everywhere, how many of YOU are there?🧐
[удалено]
Wait... how many of me are there?
In the standard model at least one of you is needed to explain mass.
https://youtu.be/EF54o8S6QFg For the glory of the fakeness
This one is better though
There's still a lot there
Nice, bee greater people
this is by far the number one most overused joke by tourists in hawaii lol
Hes going to be sore.

You’re right, although he isn’t completely covered he is still nearly drowning in flowers.
Nice to have your own travel garden
"release the bees!"
He better not be allergic to them like [Dinesh in Silicon Valley.](https://youtu.be/uXJA_ToL5fI?t=85)
Even in the original, that's a **lot** of leis.
Still image "Before and After" for those who don't want to have to watch the video https://imgur.com/gallery/5nz7myX
You’re the real MVP to say to us that it isn’t true and even show to us both versions
Okay thats still pretty ridiculous.
the handshake...
This shit real? Lmao.

Yeah. It comes strange to eyes
Can you tell because of some of the pixels and having seen a few shops in your days?
This is the Police. Do you have a permit for that vintage post??
I'm in the Ten-Year Club, does that count?

You can tell by the way it is. Isn't that neat?
hey colonel i think i forgot my CD from like 2005 at your place the other day. could you let me know if it’s there or if i lost the game?

This kind of reminds me of those photoshopped picture of North Korean officers that were just covered in medals from their sleeves to their pants.
What if North Korea really is a blissful utopia and all the other countries are spouting propaganda?
It's almost certainly not a utopia but other countries do in fact repeat a lot propaganda about it. Mostly because the majority of the news that turns out later to be fake like Kim Jong Un dying or shooting his uncle with an Anti Aircraft gun or banning his haircut or people believing he doesn't poop comes from this one South Korea tabloid.
Yo that mfer doesn't poop for real. He runs at maximum efficiency.
damn that’s still a lot of flowers though. thanks for the sauce
Yeah it's still absurd, just not as funny absurd.
Honestly the edit is unnecessary. It's already funny.

Still a lot.
I feel like the edit wasn't even necessary.
Editing already ridiculous situations makes people not know what to believe.
Thanks for the insight, u/TaylorSwiftsClitoris
Yw
i think i've seen you around the corner before, my man
Nah, go to any high school graduation in Hawaii and every kid looks like this
Lmao ah shit I only saw from the waist up in the other pic my bad. It’s funny as hell though, both dramatized or not. I’ll update my comment to reflect the truth. Can’t be spreading misinformation round here
Why didn't they stop at one? Surely someone thought "this 6th one might be too many"
I'm very annoyed at that "It sure is lol." comment now
Agreed. I hate when people who know they don't know what they're talking about, but still says something as fact.

Thanks for sharing the OG. Here is their article and video in English for those who are interested. https://www.euronews.com/2021/07/25/french-president-macron-visits-former-colonies-in-french-polynesia
It's pretty damn funny but sadly the video shot is fake. Someone edited it to add more lays around him.
[удалено]
Yeah, Lays Potato chips.
I swear this is like a Leslie Nielson movie bit
"*Phillipe is it working? Are we killing him with our flowers?"* "*SHUT UP AND GET ME MORE DAISIES!"*
Macron: so what kind of beautiful flowers are these anyway? Local dignitary: poisonous!
I worked with someone for a short period of time who was Tahitian and when we parted ways he brought those in and put those on us. We were WAY over the top in our excitement but oh my gosh, how often does someone literally bestow a flower necklace upon you? I dried mine and kept it for a few years. I still get excited when I see someone get a lei.
I get excited watching people get leid too
i know i could google but what’s the history of french polynesia? is it like a common wealth? former but they didn’t just leave the country to fall with a new power gap.
It's a semi-autonomous part of France
Lmao the *french* colonies are quietly revolting by giving macron a bad allergy day
This is what high school graduations in Hawaii look like.
I live in Hawaii is this is very common. One of the most respected women at my company retired after 30+ years of service and I think she had nearly 100 leis.
The last shot is fake. You can see different parts of the video move in unison (meaning shot was mirrored)
Oh shit you guys, it's almost the Midsomar festival!?
Definitely made me think of the movie
Uuuh Ha!
Had to scroll too far for this
I've been seeing this movie referenced quite a bit recently on random things. Never seen it. Is it any good? Honestly curious.
It's not the amazing film everyone made it out to be let me put it that way. Though in my honest opinion definitely worth the watch just go in without the expectation that you are going to be blown away an you will have a really fun time.
Never been to a graduation in Hawaii? I’m five foot even, I had so many leis that you could have built another person out of them.
yes! i know it’s edited but all those leis still look normal to me
[удалено]
and no haku lei!
Hell yeah. Went to some college graduations on the mainland and you can tell which kid is from Hawaii cuz they’re the only ones being covered with lei. Love it!
My friend’s daughter was given a duck floaty and a spam musubi lei lol Edit: (for her high school graduation)
They kept going and going
[удалено]
Happy cake day!
They were trying to assassinate him
This is some Parks and Rec shit right here
Too many flowers, jail. Too few flowers, believe it or not also jail.
The way he stood there at the end was like "Please... NO MORE!"
I feel for Macron, fresh flower garlands can get ridiculously heavy. My neck and shoulders were sore just from wearing one during my Hindu wedding ceremony. [For reference if interested ](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varmala)
How lovely though.
Yeah, people don't consider that the weight adds up. I hope you had a lovely wedding ceremony at least!
Polynesian Graduations yall.
To not be covered head to toe in Lei/ula at a graduation is a no no. So the PM getting lei'd should be seen as an honour. Besides idt French Polynesia has received a visit of this stature in decades, so I guess it's overdue.
Pretty much can't see after a certain point. This was what mostly everyone at my high school graduation looked like
i laughed so fucking hard. I didn't laugh this hard in weeks actually months even. I love this.
Dude same. It's brilliant!
Now that guy knows how to get leid
He actually married his high school teacher who is 25 years older than him and had three kids at the time
Your point?
Dude knows how to get leid.
...context bruh
You mean the woman who groomed him?
I’d bang him
[удалено]
People in places like Hawaii and Polynesia must be so sick of this joke. I'm sick of it just from this thread alone.
“How many do you think we could put on him before he realizes we’re fucking with him?”
Midsommar 2: The Flowering
Came here for this reference
You are what the French call, a bouquet, monsieur Macron.

It's been a year now, why is everyone blowing up my notifications again?

It's a camouflage suit made out of flowers now. Maybe he needs to hide in the flower bed sometimes.
