An actual breakfast.
Add herring and smoked mackerel and it is legit a carbon copy of the breakfasts I grew up with.
Has political correctness actually gone mad?

Think he is from the Southern part of Denmark, so basically a German.
His location says "Dutchland" and he's a Feyenoord supporter.
Is that what y’all call the brown kind?
For me, gravy at breakfast looks like...
Marine Corps SOS.
Lovely biscuits, though.
SOS is beef though. That in the gravy is sausage.
He's a bacon-dodger from the flatlands either way.
I'm neither Danish nor German 
So Belgian then?I'm neither Danish nor German
Bacon dodger would make for an awesome tagline.
I refuse to acknowledge Belgium is a real country. It's just part us and part France.

Aren’t the Dutch just a taller version of Germans?
One of the best bits, as long as it's a proper one, not one of those nasty briquettes made out of fat and charcoal sweepings.
It's also remarkably healthy*:

It looks horribly like bread and marg. Something about that colour and texture just makes me suspicious. Suspicious enough that even if they surround their breakfast with EU flags and rainbow laces, I still wouldn't eat there.
* Says black pudding manufacturer.
Taller and prettier!
The Dutch are great. Tall, exceptionally good looking, a great accent, excellent sense of humour and lovely cities.
See, this guy gets it.

Y'all foreigners are all the same to me.

Yes, nothing better than a Bury Black pud (with a bit of mustard) hot off one of the stalls at Bury market.
When your lead actress is not 'gay enough' or Jewish...

Surely besides the usual numpties, the outcry can't have been that bad to cause someone to leave twitter!
Never knew there are different levels of gay
House. Hugh Laurie is neither American or a surgeon. Fecking outrage!
That's actually disgusting: "isn’t too gay" is both meaningless and offensive.
The perfect twitter storm. Woke eejits angry because she’s not gay enough and gamergate bellends fuming about DC making a gay superhero to placate the SJWs.
He's not a house either.
The twitter mob looked at a leaked casting video and decided who should be cast for the role. Wow, we’re attaining new levels these days.
Just found out LGBTQ is now LGBTQIA+. You live and learn.
The letter A at the end is a bit interesting. As in people who identify as asexual (is this now considered a discriminated class?) or "allied" - as in anyone who considers themselves an ally of the broader LGBT movement. Seems a bit of a gratuitous overreach of the original purpose of the acronym.

What does the + mean?
“And everything else any of ye come up with...” Basically a catch all to stop the acronym becoming even more unwieldy. I think it’s jumped the shark already. We need a new one.
A is asexual. I think “allied” could come under the “+” bit which is intended to be all-inclusive. Dunno why they didn’t just go for LGBT+.
Hmm, do asexual folks align themselves with long acronym community?
A truce, signalling defeat in the effort to put every possible word into that acronym.
I think just the single word queer could be all-encompassing though?
I guess the specific sub-groups have their own identity they don’t necessarily want subsumed into a big amorphous mass of people? Where to draw the line though? Tricky.
Seems a bit late in that case, they should just go the whole alphabet to ensure nobody feels marginalized.
How a desire for greater representation in film (which I thoroughly agree with) turned into the most, restrictive, bland, conservative approach to the medium is a spectacular example of the increase in piss poor reasoning meeting an increasing piss poor attitude to art. I just wish that people who don't give a feck about acting, performance and art stopped pretending to care about it. Also I wish arguments were judged on their merits instead of treating obnoxiousness and ignorance as forms of reasoning.
The more ethnic and sexual colours involved in filmmaking the more potential for diverse, original and interesting work. Making them all sit and stay in their own fecking box is philistine.

The Ruby Rose thing feels like when people decide to focus on small negatives so they get to cry about how PC culture has gone mad.
The "row" wasn't even widespread and most of the "outrage" was actually her being cast because she's a superlatively shit actress (which made it seem like they just cast the first LGBT actress they could find) rather than her not being "gay enough". But yeah, SJWs.
The Jack Whitehall issue is more interesting. Though, again it seems to be a small fraction of people complaining, but it's been blown up. At some point, the "PC gone mad" people will find out they actually outnumber the SJWs.
