I tried their kabob last weekend, it was pretty good and a lot of food for the price....
I don’t get any of these. Explain please.
1) Tourists misunderstanding Metro station names
2) Don’t know because I don’t speak French
3) Something to do with Harry Potter, but I’ve never read the books or seen the movies
“Non, je ne regrette rien” is a famous french song. It means something like “I don’t regret a thing.” If you listen to the song you’ll get it.
In Harry Potter, to Board the train to Hogwarts (wizard school) you have to run full-speed at a pillar in a train station in London to go through a portal (or something like that). Having to go to the center of the tracks at Metro Center to get to “American Hogwarts” requires more trust than running at a pillar for “British Hogwarts”
I think when this pic was posted originally, PP explained that this was actually a French tourist who was trying to get to the other side.
I like #1 and #2. Strongly disagree with giving an honorable mention to a caption containing two incorrect apostrophes and an incorrect word.
+1
pretty much ONLY french people would refer to L’Enfant plaza as maybe “Children’s Plaza” rather than “Elephant Plaza” … the confused woman was French, not from Texas.
FAIL PoP, major FAIL.
