Mr. Broccoli really missed his opportunity to capitalize on having a platform to discuss climate change. Instead we just watch a moron use the platform to roleplay a vegetable. Yikes.

There is a Facebook group with over 200,000 people bonding over their shared hatred for coriander. The memes inspired by this hatred are spicy comedy gems. In all fairness, coriander is one of those things you love or hate the absolute sh*t out of. Some people think it tastes like soap.
Old but gold and also weird. Last year a facebook post of this strange conversation featured an apparently very defensive James Barrett's wife taking over JB's facebook account to deliver a prickly message to someone whose only crime was planning to draw vegetables.
