Guy is just asking for chicken carbonara with no bacon and the server keeps telling him it isn’t possible.
Then this lady gets super incensed and starts going off calling everyone that disagrees with her “medigan” which is apparently a derogatory term used by Italian Americans to insult people they think have “lost touch with their Italian heritage”

Commendatori! 🤟🤌
I loved the details in that arc, these fucking absolute morons going to southern Italy to broker a relationship with a crime family and thinking they are going to reconnect with the beautiful ethnic heritage they have been keeping alive through sociopathy and slang.
I loved when two old guys on the bench realize Paulie is an American and curse him out for one of those NATO incidents where a bunch of people died from some immune jet pilot goofing around and clipping the wires on a gondola sending the riders to a violent death… because Paulie was as ignorant of it as probably 99% of the American audience.
Chris spends the whole time in his hotel room nodding off on heroin (lol), and none of them understand the food at all, because it’s not the cartoonish shit they grew up on. and they also get a glimpse of how off the rails life in the Mezzogiorno is for regular people when one of the thugs casually belts some civilian woman in the mouth in public and everyone not connected just scurries away.
of course they all come back and lie like crazy about how it was a spiritual/familial renewal with the best food/culture etc.
What’s the movie?
You just revealed your own ignorance.
Yes. Exactly. That’s why I asked.
Haha Sorry, I wasn’t saying that genuinely. It’s just a popular line from it.
It’s not a movie, they’re referencing The Sopranos. Really good show and highly recommend it! It has a lot of famous, funny lines that people like to repeat.
Oh! Haha, sorry. As you can see I’m plenty ignorant of the show.
A coupl’a tree videos just as an example of the comedy in it, it’s not just an action-drama.
This one has a minor spoiler in it but wouldn’t ruin the show:

But this one is probably more relevant to Hexbear sense of humor and doesn’t have spoilers:

And this one is a compilation of moments from the mentioned trip to Italy:

lmao at that second one. a bunch of lazy, theiving assholes sitting doing nothing complaining about how hard they work and that the indigenous don’t do anything to deserve any social assistance or respect. fucking beautifully organized scene.
I think in one of that later season, they show Vito hiding out upstate, trying his hand at working a straight job. guy doesn’t even last an hour doing basic electrical work with a new friend before he loses his mind at the grind and quits.
I love how the show works in those little reminders that they aren’t just scumbags and fuckups, they are all outrageously lazy and sit around all the time spending the money they took from actual working people on treats bullshit.

It’s an episode of a show called The Sopranos which is about a mafia family.
Thank you, never watched it. I’ll give it a go.
Tbh for all that it seems widely loved, I did not really like it. It has moments that are funny or brilliant which I loved and this episode sounds hilarious but it also makes some really bad decisions in the writing.
The last episode I saw was somewhere in season 3 they have a very graphic and prolonged SA scene. Which could have, if handled well, been acceptable. Media doesn’t have to shy away from difficult topics like that. But instead the way the writers handled the followup to it was disgusting and infuriating. Probably should have expected that from how they handled something like that in season 1 but that was it, I was just done with the show after that
Dont feel compelled to continue after season 1, the show has wild dips in quality and gets unfocused after season 2 (it starts being a crime drama rather than a character drama) and it gets repetitive.
as others have said, it’s from The Sopranos, a critically acclaimed and popular Very Dark Comedy that ran from 1999-2007 ostensibly about the leader of a crime family (biological and extended).
it’s tone ranges from goofy to grim, sometimes in the same moment. the result was a very quoteable show with a massive audience that remember and experienced it differently.
Sopranos is a groundbreaking family drama that uses the mafia as an analogue to corporate suburban America, it’s also incredible brainrot material and I had most fun with the show watching clips uploaded to YouTube with the comments sections all filled with parodied quotes.
One of my favorite lines is in the pilot where Tony tells his expensive lib therapist that he feels he got into the business at the end after the peak and its a shot of him walking to get the newspaper in his huge mansion.
