Yup, I am okay with that!

I know but as discussed via PM we wanted to have it scraped publicly by Mr. Bitcointalk scraper to have the latest data and after that, we would launch our giveaway.
I received you PM and here's what you've scraped a few days ago:

Members having left at least one comment in LoyceV's Avatar for Rent [first 🦊🦊🦊3 YEARS🦊🦊🦊 (197 weeks) rented out]:



Members having left at least one Merit in LoyceV's Avatar for Rent [first 🦊🦊🦊3 YEARS🦊🦊🦊 (197 weeks) rented out]:



Maybe you can confirm that the data is accurate and not manipulated?
It would be fine for me to take the data from above as basis for our giveaway, if GazetaBitcoin agrees.  

I already did, it's in my PM from December 19. Your post needs some formatting.

Not sure if the pig will like that but in any case, when you are in Germany, you should try "German Sushi":



Yes, it's raw meat but it's sooo delicious. Important to know: Since "German Sushi" is raw meat, it should be really fresh and only bought from professional butchers.

And in addition to our German delicacy, we have a big surprise:

After a very long preparation (GazetaBitcoin can confirm  ), we are happy to announce a special celebration ceremony! Background: Following recent renovations which included full house redecoration, painting walls, changing wall / floor tiles etc. and also new furniture, GazetaBitcoin has purchased a new couch.  
As far as I know, GazetaBitcoin has waited for a very long time to purchase such a couch and now, it's FINALLY DONE!  
It's not a normal couch, it's a very comfortable and expensive couch (some people would even call it elitist couch) and we want to honor GazetaBitcoin’s new couch.  

We will also sponsor a price and everyone from here will be eligible, not matter if someone made a comment in this topic or just left a Merit.
LoyceV has already agreed, that we can devastate his topic here due to celebrations set up a civil ceremony to honor GazetaBitcoin's couch and LoyceV will scrape eligible participats to take part in our giveaway.
In addition, we have PMed hilariousandco, asked for permission and got a positive reply to do so: 




After all data is scraped publicly, we'll start our giveaway.  
But no hurry, we still have plenty time.  

I've read that post long ago (after all, it's from 2012), and I've found it funny and poetic.
Yes, especially at the country side, people still slaughter pigs for eating. In my early years (until up to some 15-17) my family did that too and I was participating to that (so I know the details pretty good). Also I went to the country side for this Christmas and the neighbors kids came from abroad too, hence they've slaughtered 3(!) pigs just before Christmas.

However
* I don't think that anybody is sharpening his knives on the bathroom's floor, it's counterproductive
* I've never seen borandau, it may be customary in other regions, I've seen others that weren't depicted there
* somehow he forgot to say clearly that each step/operation ends with booze
* the operation needs 4, preferably 5 men, one for each of the pig's legs and the 5th should have some training as a butcher (to find easily the hearth, to cut later the various parts, to handle the recipe for sausages - and taste the raw meat - and so on). I don't think that our guy could have been getting so much help there.
* the pig makes an awfully loud noise (obviously) and in US that would attract police and all the show

Of course, it's barbaric since the pig is alive and awake when the knife enter his hearth. Plus not all butchers know what they're doing. Plus some may be already drunk when they get the knife in their hands.
However, nowadays there are so many diseases even growing pigs around the house is risky. So I expect this habit will go into oblivion too in some more decades (sadly, because many great recipes will also die off).

Now this may seem a bit late, as Christmas already passed, but for getting us closer as a gang even moar I will describe you a curious habit we have in Romania for Christmas (NeuroticFish may (or may not) confirm all these ).

So we, Romanians, for hundred of years, use to slaughter a pig for Christmas I found, by pure chance, on the Internet, a so-called letter of a Romanian living in America, which depicts this habit. Please enjoy!

The letter of a Romanian living in America

Because of the economic crisis, because of longing and because of playing cool I decided to slaughter a pig on Christmas, like we used to do in my village when I was young. Now, of course, we did not kill the pig on Christmas, but just before St. Andrew (n.b. -- Nov 30th), as we did not have patience anymore, nor other food in the pantry which would help us allow the animal to live until Christmas.

So after I sharpened my knives on the bathroom's floor tiles and after I got two straw ballots (they were for decorative purposes and they were forgotten by a neighbor since Halloween in front of his yard), I started to look for a pig. First of all I posted on Internet that I intend to buy, for sacrificing purposes, a medium size animal, up to 150kg, but nobody replied to me, excepting a lunatic which said he loves my ideas and, if I want, we can slaughter, together, many pigs!

I believe that all crazies from all over the world run and hid on the Internet! But that's another subject!

When I asked my work mates if they know where I can find a living pig they became very curious, asking what I'm going to do with it, because it's too big to have it as a pet, it makes a lot of mess etc.

When I told them I want to slaughter it they became shocked and asked me why. To eat it, that's why, I replied, and in that moment I lost any sympathy, tolerance or understanding remaining if they ever had these feelings for me. "How can you kill an animal, to eat it, like a barbarian?"

Now, when I saw that they are about to call Animals Protection I started to describe them the specific operations, insisting on cutting the jugular and collecting the blood inside a bowl, if possible one with the varnish broken, like my mom used to have, in order to prepare singerete but, more important, borandau. I did not know how to explain in English what borandau is (as I don't know even in Romanian) but I told them it's a sort of polenta made from corn powder, but with blood, instead of water.

I think that about three of them, which were more sensitive, went to bathroom, but the rest (now the entire division was around me) were all ears, while looking at me either with mercy or with disgust. Then, I continued, we fry the pig's skin with burning straws (or with a gas tank, if we live inside an apartment building), then we chop animal's ears, which we eat on the spot, having them with a bit of salt.

That part sent a few more to the bathroom, but I kept talking, being aware that I'll never have such a moment, to be listened by so many people, with so much attention. So after we shave the animal with the fire, we cut it open with an axe, a hatchet, or whatever comes at hand, then we remove the organs, which we boil, together with the head, for preparing caltabos (n.b. a sort of very thick sausage). As you know -- I told them airily -- that for caltabos the thick intestine is used, which is optionally washed or boiled in water with onion, for hiding the heavy smell.

At this point an entire group left and only about three colleagues remained -- those which were bravest and which had best guts to endure. Actually, only two kept listening as one of them was a Coreean, which did not know any English, and which keeps all day long the head phones over his ears but he joins any group and nods affirmatively at any discussion.

So with the rest of the meat, I continued, we make sausages, barbeque and sarmale (n.b. a sort of meat balls rolled inside sour cabbage leaves) and, if the animal was fat, we may also fry a pot with pork cracklings, in order to ameliorate a bit the effect of the booze, which we keep drinking all this time.

All in all, I think I went easy on them, as if I were to explain them how are prepared the hot dogs and salami they have for lunch, they would all go to a hospital.

Long live globalization!

Having all these said, now I can ensure our Supreme Leader that she is not the only one eating livers

I could also tell you more, about how sausages are made (using pig's thin intestines) or about another Romanian delicacy -- tripe soup -- which is made with cow stomach and which is, according to Wikipedia a great hangover remedy, but I'll stop here for the moment

People miss that part pretty often. And @fillippone was nicely funny, no matter what.
Actually I think that Foxpup may be even going a few milliseconds late on purpose

I wasn't late. You seem to overlook every instance in which my time machine arrives a second earlier.

Also, it's 1 and 6. I want it to be 0 though.

Thanks again for your flawless timing!

Thanks again for your flawless timing!

I'm not sure here because I believe it's Coca Cola (second picture) and Coca Cola / Fanta mix (first picture), while much more Fanta has been poured into it. 
As you are a member of the fox gang, I beleive it's a feint because foxes are known for their feints. 

Same here but we'll have a nice surprise for everyone here very soon, no matter if you are cycling Merits while not being in the club or you are cycling Merits while being in the club.

Now, we are very curious about your italian food that we would appreciate an anonymous photo of your italian food. 


Merry Christmas as well @everyone of course 

Merry Christmas to my cycling buddies, even if I am not a cycling buddy!

Merry Christmas from the land of the food, where everyone just want to eat more, but not happy with that, your fellow Filippone was able to eat take-away pizza on Christmas Eve, after 2 (two) separate big feasts!

Merry Christams Gang!

Merry Christmas from the Netherlands too!

Merry Christmas to all my cycling buddies!

Now if you'll excuse me, I need to grab a fourth serving of turkey...

Merry Christmas to everyone!



fillippone, amico mio, this (plastic, of course) bottle is filled with my father in law's finest wine! Feel free to taste it, as I am sharing it with all the gang  

Additionally, if you want, I also have a (plastic) bottle filled by my father in law with a delicious sour cherry liquor!

Thanks again for your flawless timing!

I don't even need excuses today, but I still need to get the kids to bed. Have mercy

One hundred and ninety-sixth week paid.

I happen to think fillippone has pretty great buns.

Later edit: oh, wait, I also ruined my camouflage now... Copy-paste fail



Sorry, Supreme Leader of Thick-Skinned Ones, I failed in covering you now. fillippone arranged us both   Must bun fillippone nowwwww!
