Look, I assume every glib is thinking, if we wanted to see Romanian commercials we would have beaten them out of you. Well no need for violence, stout yeomen! I decided that I will enact your labor for you (whether you want it to or not) and present the following. I tried to use a selection which reveal a bit of Romanian spirit, a bit of Romanian flavor. The video quality is not great and mostly there are no English subtitles. But it matters not, as they send their message across just fine.
In case you don’t want to actually watch the video
First we start with Rom Tricolor, a candy bar that is, like many cheap candy bars, mediocre overall, but for some reason you want to eat it. Rom is rum, so it is chocolate on the outside and a rum essence cocoa cream in the inside. This is enhanced by nostalgia, as for me it tastes of childhood. Their campaign was based on a slogan “Romanian sensations since 1964”
Two of the commercials go into communist nostalgia and the good old days when the actual fashion police came a calling, because “We will not tolerate such attire for the socialist youth”

The third is a modern view of certain less than ideal aspects of Romanian culture, centered on the person of the Cocalar – which I have no idea how to translate in American. It is what the English might call a chav. This one is for Q as it briefly contains a female in a bathing suit.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKoQbzn1q1c
A different commercial focusing on history is for a painkiller called Algocalmin, which has been since made prescription only in most countries, even banned in some, as it contains a substance called metamizole, which is actually bad. Now in my family we didn’t really use Algocalmin as a painkiller, but there was nothing like it to break a very high fever. Worked like magic for that purpose.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GnbfqBGgnA
Next couple are for detergent – DERO comes from “Detergent Românesc” (Romanian Detergent) –which is no longer Romanian, but a brand of Unilever. The commercials are basically a couple talking about the kind of stains DERO removes –ciorba de burta (tripe soup) and coal dust.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=2&v=qycKgN3HVwQ
It’s just fine if you forgot what a bowl of ciorba looks like.
“I hate ciorba de burta. My father hated ciorba de burta. His father hated ciorba de burta. Where are we going to get these stains?”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=ZbfmTi3VMOQ
Now we have one showing the fabled Romanian construction workers in their natural environment, for cheap rotgut liquor with the slogan “Unde’s multi puterea creste” – basically Strength in numbers. (The name is Unirea, or Unification, and the slogan was the one during the unification of Wallachia and Moldovia)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=28&v=hiWCol_MOH4
And finally a commercial recommending buying a TV, so one can more easily tell the difference between a priest and Batman
I appreciate that the “rum” candybar is the one that reminds you of your childhood.
Oh Eastern Europe, never change.
I wish I had rum candy bars when I was a kid.
I first glanced at that and saw it as “Crom” – I thought that was quite a powerful candy bar.
A riddle in every bite.
*ow steel hurts*
You will contemplate these Romanian Commercials….on the Tree of Woe.
That’s easy for the one with the hot woman.
For rom there is also the american version
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hDalPc_fB8c
Is that sold in America?
I don’t think so it was made in Romania to make fun of “patriots” but who knows 😀
I want.
Also, why is there a fork next to that bowl of soup?
Well, eating soup with a fork explains why it stains everything.
Fair point!
The soup is so acidic it ate through a spoon making it look like a fork?
It’s a test. If you use the fork, you’ve got a one way ticket to the sterilization chamber. Eugenics in action.
The batman one confused me greatly until I realized that your link cuts off the first half, now I’m just mildly confused.
shit I didn’t realize my YouTube links had the time I stooped watching. Gah
This is just crazy talk.
the dialog is basically: I told you he was a priest but you no, batman batman
…is the implication that the version of batman they saw on TV so bad (due to their terrible TV) that IRL they mistook a priest for him?
basically
So, Romanians hate Batman? Is that what I’m to take away from that commercial?
Too closely rivals their local bat hero – Vlad Dracul?
Good point. They see Bruce Wayne as a weak imitation – he’s never even impaled any Turks on stakes!
Not to defend old Vlad but them Turks had it coming
Still do!

it briefly contains a female in a bathing suit.
She’s hot. Thanks!
KK may even enjoy “the punchline”. It’s a video for all Glibs.
Is that Jesse in the third commercial?
… I really want to try ciorba. I’d even eat the head, IDGAF.
If you really want to eat tripe, the Peruvians have you covered.
https://www.piscotrail.com/2017/02/11/recipes/cau-cau-peruvian-tripe-stew/
My youngest BIL’s favorite dish.
I will eat just about anything, but I draw the line at having to make it myself. Lol.
Just go to your local Peruvian restaurant.
*googles Peruvian population of Montana*
Huh. Zero.
*shrug*
Whatcha gonna do?
Just wait until I travel to a place that has a Peruvian restaurant, I guess. I learned my lesson back in college when I attempted to make miso soup. I’d never had it before but was dying to try it. Having had miso soup from several different restaurants now, I look back on what I made with extreme personal embarrassment. That was the last time I’ve made something without trying it somewhere else first.
Empty the packet into hot water?
Besides, if you had a local Peruvian restaurant, why would you get tripe instead of the roasted chicken?
Why not both?
My local place runs out of chicken almost every night.
When people walk in and see this:
they tend to change their order.
GIMME!
I tried a fried tripe at a local dive…meh.
Not impressed, eh? Would you say it was the tripe, itself, or just the prep at the dive bar?
I haven’t tried anywhere else yet…I’ll update when I do. It was chewy and bland. Chewy I didn’t mind but the bland part…I imagine Uncivil would be on it like white on rice.
Did it come with any sauces? I don’t mind a little blandness if there’s a good dipping sauce…
Hot sauce. This was a Jordanian one stop shop that caters too the local black population. Was one of my favorite dives til a Kuwaiti guy opened up a block up the street. (he makes his own hot sauce and actually adds some of his ancestral flair to the food).
actually adds some of his ancestral flair to the food
I prefer not to have the cook’s genetic material in my meals.
You ain’t living then.
*stirs soup and shaves at same time*
Shaved bacon in soup gets a pass.
Yeah, you don’t really want to compare ethnic cuisine to dive bar food.
Tripe is good in pho.
Menudo is excellent for the hang-over.

Actual Romanian Army encampment at Tallill, Iraq. March 2008.
Heh….nice. There is a great hole in the wall restaurant near us run by an older Romanian couple. It’s not specifically a Romanian restaurant, although they do feature some of their native dishes (it’s right next to Rare Old Times, in case sloopy is reading this). Anyway, the first time we went there, my wife was taken aback by the volume of Vlad Tepes/Dracula décor they feature.
Near St. Louis we seem to have gotten a lot of Albanians. They don’t cook much of their cuisine though. *has sad*
We have a surprising number of Bosnians who came to the area as war refugees. They have a few excellent restaurants of their own.
Bosnian food is agreeable, yes indeed.
Yeah lots of Bosnians in St. Louis. Haven’t been to a Bosnian restaurant yet. *kicks self*
Really nice people.
Fried Ravioli is Bosnian?
Under Enver Hoxa, Albanians did not have this “food” of which you speak.
I remember those guys!
Now that I think about it, I arrived in Talil 2 months after that photo.
Dang man…we almost crossed paths…in April, I got sent down to “help” the IA 14th DIV retake Basrah…so I was thrown to the tender mercies of the 1 Scots then the 4 Scots.
I like their sense of humor.
I mean I am not saying the Romanian presence had much effect but they weren’t completely useless
They did the intermediate security when I was at Tallill….out to 10KM (?) – and they also spent all of their pay at our PX (Post Exchange) buying electronics. 🙂
Had to beat having the Ugandans like we did at Al-Asad. Those dudes were definitely not believers in the necessity of deodorant, plus they were letter-of-the-law pains in the ass. You see the same guys every single day – do you really need to see every single fucking guy in the seven-ton’s ID every time?
Were they Triple Canopy? Aegis? Yeah…I ran into some similar types in Baghdad.
On the other hand…nobody knows more about where you might be smuggling or hiding stuff than Africans.
Racist!
No idea. They wore plain khaki uniforms, that’s all I remember.
Probably Triple Canopy….the Bargain Basement o’ Security Contractors!

We had Ugandans at Talil. The best part was the line of Ugandans at the chicken wing counter at the DFAC and they had no idea whatsoever why that was funny.
Good job on being consistent on providing us with alt text.
Here’s a commercial for you. It’s not from Romania, but it features a gorgeous Romanian.
I hit that. Was okay but not great

She should never have gotten a reduction.
Breast reductions are a crime against humanity and should be tried at The Hague.
And lordy they were so perfect before. Drop tennis and go into swimsuit modeling, more lucrative anyway.

I see this more as people holding the left to their own standards. They’re saying if a man in this day had dared to say the same thing he would have been publically condemned. Feminists want equality? Well here’s yer fuckin equality!
Speaking of equalityPentagon recommends requiring women to register for the draft
They’re absolutely right about that. For the record, I don’t think it’s a big deal at all. I just also think that it isn’t a big deal if Cam Newton or anybody else does it, either. As a culture, we desperately need to pry the stick out of our collective ass.
Not that there’s anything wrong with a stick up your ass…

Transylvania on Halloween
https://youtu.be/TyvEa0hTfOY
what the fuck is that?
Was searching for the Anthony’s Bordain No Reservations Transylvania episode and came across that.
Apparently that was produced by the Transylvania tourism board. Not very enticing.
Transylvania is really a nice place to visit. Went to Brasov a several years ago, in October if memory serves. Visited Vlad’s castle, but stayed at Poiana, a ski resort. Hiked back to Brasov and had a great time. There’s a fantasic Romanian barbeque restaurant in Poiana (I’m from Texas, and know what great barbecue is.) Brasov is a great cafe city. I’d love to go again, though I’d pass on Bucharest the second time around. Bucharest is a hard partying city, but I’m too old for that.
Bottom line: Transylvania is a great place to visit, and not nearly so weird as Halloween weirdos at Vlad’s castle portray.
Bourdain that is. But the guy came in Romania in a very sad time. He would have found much better food these days
Wait…..aren’t you supposed to be telling us? Who’s the native around here?
There’s lots stupid in this country. I can’t keep up, local as I may be
Huh. I see the bearded axe stuck in the table. In the modern imagination it is a battle weapon or a tool for torture. In fact it is a carpenter’s axe use for shaping logs into lumber. In the old days when iron was nearly as valuable as gold today when people went to war they mostly didn’t have specialized weapons – they brought the tools they used every day and used them as weapons.

I’m going to level with you Pie. This is the only link I clicked.
And? Would?
Approved.
I won’t toss her overboard.
I’m assuming the morning thread is pretty much dead so I’ll plop this down here – Tom Perez says that the Electoral College is not in the Constitution:
Article II, Section 1, Clause 2:
You expect Top.Men. to know what is in the Constitution?
Who can understand it anyways? It was written in some old dead language, wasn’t it?
“Seriously, have you ever read that thing? Technically it doesn’t even give us the right to use the bathroom!”
/Prog
Totally, the F’s look like S’s. Indecipherable.
Oh, so they are back to trashing the constitution. I cant keep up with them. It’s almost like they make whatever argument is convenient to them at any given moment.
Not really an argument – more like a tantrum.
All the thought-provoking insight of a crabby toddler.
So I went looking to see if the constitution actually specifies a “college” of electors, rather than
just electors and that they meet. (It doesn’t. It just says that the electors of each state shall
meet and send their votes to the president of the senate.)
And then at https://www.whitehouse.gov/1600/constitution I found this:
“The Second Amendment gives citizens the right to bear arms.”
Um… no it doesn’t. It guarantees that the government won’t infringe the pre-existing right.
The constitution doesn’t grant rights, it secures them. That’s the theory anyway.
Seems like more a matter of semantics than anything else. Call it a “college”, call it whatever else you want, the process is there in the text.
But the “grant rights” thing isn’t just semantics. It is the crux of everything in the dispute between statists, collectivists and individualists.
And he’s a lawyer, too.
Also, the 12th amendment is entirely devoted to laying out the process for the electoral college.
In keeping with the weird commercials theme:

Tom Perez says that the Electoral College is not in the Constitution:
Okay, then.
Tom Perez sez “I’m a know-nothing ignor-anus.”
For those who don’t follow such things, it is in there twice.
First in Article II.
Then it is revised in the 12th amendment.
I can just hear him now: “Yeah, but other than those two times…”

If Spain has not split in two, its media almost has. There, the struggle over the restive region of Catalonia plays out in parallel universes.
From Madrid, the region’s secessionist drive is portrayed as an act of sedition deserving to be put down. In Catalonia, the narrative is more about aspirations for self-determination by a people with a distinct identity.
“We’ve got parallel story lines led by extremist representations that are filled with clichés,” said Enric Hernàndez, the editor of the Barcelona-based newspaper El Periódico.
The central government in Madrid may soon try to align those narratives by taking charge of Catalonia’s public broadcasters, Catalunya Radio and its larger sister television company, TV3.
The move could come as soon as this weekend, after another tense and unpredictable round in the standoff. The Catalan Parliament will meet Thursday to review a possible declaration of independence, a day before the Spanish Senate is expected to approve a raft of emergency measures under Article 155 of the Constitution to give Madrid direct control over the region.
Among those measures, Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy wants to guarantee “truthful, objective and balanced” coverage in Catalonia.
This sounds… not good.
Just start shooting and get it over with.
If that happens Catalonia gets rolled by various EU members, primarily Germany. Allowing breakaways is basically a death sentence to their little scheme.

Sacrificing a pawn to capture a rook.
Agreed 100%.
as Ken pointed out earlier this week. it’s a brilliant move.
I disagree. I think it’s a case of thinking that it’s ok to compromise on process if the outcome is good. In this case especially we have no guarantee that we will have a good outcome (i.e. shrinking the state) Higher taxes does not mean that blue states will be any less blue, if that were the case we should have seen a tidal surge in voting for fiscal responsibility in the last 50 years. As is often stated here, progressivism is a religion and it’s adherents will not abandon it over a deduction or lack thereof. Lawrence Vance has a pretty good response that line of thinking here:
https://www.lewrockwell.com/2017/07/laurence-m-vance/tax-deductions/
Yeah, they’ll just fight even harder to do force their policies on the whole country once they can’t afford to do them in their states.
You mean people might actually start responding to excessive taxation by their home state in way they vote? UNPOSSIBLE.

Seriously, they find themselves face down in a ditch–at the very least.
It’s called insanity. It is very real and more pervasive than most people realize. There is an interesting movie about a woman who falls down that rabbit hole, no pun intended, but I cant remember the name of the movie. In the end she quits her good job, sells her house, abandons her family and goes off to work with PETA. What I noticed about the character is that she is governed solely by her emotions. Accuracy or bias conformation?
Didn’t I see this in Trainspotting?
It makes me sick.
To be sure, these cases are terrible.
But there have been cases of parental neglect going back to the beginning of time. Any effort to make the village responsible for the child causes more problems than it solves. DHS ruins more lives than are lost in these kinds of cases.
The only solution is to throw the parents in jail for decades (until they are no longer fertile) and move the remaining kids someplace safe.
I’m down with the summary execution solution suggested above.

I lived next door to them for two years. There were chicken coops in the backyard and their tv was in the garage but other than her boyfriend watching sports in the garage we almost never saw any of them, really creepy in hindsight. My grandmother lives down the street and a lot of my neighbors gave them food but we’re told to stop by their mother. The panhandling as far as I know hadn’t started when I lived by them.
That is just unbelievably fucked up. Starvation is one of the most agonizing ways to die.
