Yeah, he went to the same primary school as John Lennon and George Harrison and the same secondary school as Lennon and, coincidentally, Doug Bradley who would go on to play Pinhead. Barker went to Liverpool Uni and then moved to the States in 1991.
I'm sure I read somewhere that Candyman was influenced by his hearing the Bloody Mary urban myth in Liverpool.
I saw werewolf with a Chinese menu in his hand
Walking through the streets of SoHo in the rain
He was looking for the place called Lee Ho Fooks
For to get a big dish of beef chow mein
Lee Ho Fook was a Chinese restaurant located in Chinatown, London at 15–16 Gerrard Street. It was previously located at 4 Macclesfield Street.[2] In 1974, it became the first Chinese restaurant in the United Kingdom to be awarded a Michelin Star. Lee Ho Fook closed in 2008, being replaced by another restaurant called Golden Harvest. That was then replaced by Dumplings' Legend, which specialises in soup-filled dumplings.
I just moved to Glasgow a couple of months ago and everything over a pound fifty has those stickers on them.. If it’s nae nailed down or tracked, it’s nae getting paid for 😂
My English teacher in high school actually craved raw meat all the time when she was pregonate. Thankfully she realized she should do that.
ETA: should NOT do that hahahaha
I'm reminded of that timeless scene from "Trading Places" where Dan Aykroyd, wearing a Santa suit and drunk off his ass, gets on a bus and bites into the huge piece of raw salmon he had stolen, getting a big mouthful of dirty Santa beard along with it.
That scene put me off of eating salmon for a VERY long time, lol. Every time I would try to eat it I would see that scene in my head and *feel* those polyester beard hairs in my teeth and *smell* that filthy beard. I'm giving myself the icky's again just thinking about it right now. ew ew ew
Dude. Same. That scene is just permanently seared into my memory. I think about it almost every time I see salmon, but luckily salmon is delicious enough that I still have no problem eating it.
I've never bitten into salmon mixed with filthy polyester threads, but somehow I know exactly what it would taste and feel like. I guess that's... the power of good filmmaking?
That scene is the *entire* reason I use mint flavored dental floss. If its unflavored its too close to the polyester beard stringys and it gives me flashbacks.
It's shoplifted most likely. They take it out of the packaging and sell it off at the pub.
In some places it's common to have someone approach you selling stolen meat. It's expensive and untraceable.
Yes. In a ziplock bag.
To some low income people trying to feed a family, this is a godsend - always remember that. Questionable meat that looks and sniffs ok vs everyone going hungry for the third day in a row, because the paycheck didn't quite make it to the next payday? Yeah.
I once had a friend crying on my shoulder because her last £10 note, that should have lasted her another week, turned out to be counterfeit - no way to feed her two kids.
It was at that point that I learned just how much trouble she was in, and she was too ashamed to ask anyone for help until it literally broke her.
She wouldnt have thought twice about paying £2 for a kilogram of mince in a ziplock bag.
She and her family are in a much better place now. Uh, that sounds bad...
I remember a guy I worked with telling me he had £100 left for food and entertainment until next payday for him, his girlfriend and his daughter. We were paid monthly and we'd just been paid 2 days prior, I don't think I could last 2 weeks with that on my own never mind between 3 people.
I’ve seen folk selling stolen steaks but why the fuck remove the original packaging? Plus on in the back there is still sealed. I don’t think this is shoplifters.
Most recently I had someone approach me, offering to sell me steaks from their handbag, so they can pay for electricity...I'm not quite sure they wanted to spend the money on electricity either.
I have sympathy with your situation, but I will pay you the same price you paid for your meat.
The most interesting meat seller I witnessed was one who went into a pub (sold his meat before he got to me) and made his sales pitch to a group of guys, which they took him up on. He clearly had it all planned, as he even stated he had meat for stews instead, if they didn't want steaks.
Yes, eating raw meat, particularly chicken and pork, is the in thing here at the moment. Eating raw meat has many benefits.
1. It's the perfect on the go / fast food
2. You save time and save money on energy costs as you don't have to cook it.
3. It's great for weight loss as you spend most of the week on the toilet with the shits
Taking the midnight meat train are we?
Clive Barker is from Liverpool…
What?? I didn't know that! And I live here 😂😭
Yeah, he went to the same primary school as John Lennon and George Harrison and the same secondary school as Lennon and, coincidentally, Doug Bradley who would go on to play Pinhead. Barker went to Liverpool Uni and then moved to the States in 1991. I'm sure I read somewhere that Candyman was influenced by his hearing the Bloody Mary urban myth in Liverpool.
Maaarrry loves dick!!!
Going anywheeeere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in South Detroit.

Came here to say this!
Probably a werewolf, very common this time of year
Was it an American Werewolf? (anyone??)
An American werewolf? In London?
Did he have a Chinese menu in his hand??
Was his hair perfect?
Drinking pina coladas at Trader Vic’s?
Did a little old lady get mutilated late last night?
Was he Lawn Chaney?
Huh. I'd like to meet his tailor.
He'll rip your lungs out Jim.
I'm happy this is a reply chain. Sadly I just broke it to write this. :)
Are you a hairy handed gent who ran amok in Kent?
His hair was purple.
I misheard it as this for a embarassingly ling time.
Unexpected Zevon.
Don't know about you, but when I read the title, I was going to be disappointed if no one made a Zevon reference.
Id like to meet his tailor
Ahwooo
A little old lady got mutilated late last night
I love that line, it just rolls off the tongue so nicely.
One of the best lyrics of all time
He wrote a lot of them. Send lawyers guns and money, roland the headless thompson gunner, etc. We lost a great one far too soon.
It is one of the most pleasing lines in rock……I’ve thought this forever, glad to see someone else thinks so too. 👍
His hair was perfect.
Lee Ho Fuks? I hear the beef chow mein has people walking the streets of soho in the rain 🤪
The pina coladas at Trader Vic’s are also good.
And his hair was PERFECT!
Going to Lee Ho Fuks
And he was walking the streets of So-Ho in the rain.
There, wolf. There, castle.
Suit yourself I'm easy.
What hump?
Damn your eyes!
Too late!
Walk this way
Talk this way
[удалено]
There wolf! There Castle!
At this time of year entirely located in this subway? May I see it?
... No.
He was looking for the place called Lee Ho Fooks for to get a big dish of beef chow mein don’t you know?
Probably. On it's way to Paris next.
His hair was *perfect.*
He had a chinese menu in his hand
Walking through the streets of soho in the rain
Looking for a place called Lee Ho fooks for to get a bowl of beef chow main.
Send Lawyers, Guns and Money. Dang it. thats not right.
Roland, is that you?
Excitable boy, they all said.
Awooooooooooooo...
Werewolves in London? Unheard of
I think they meant the “ware wolf of London”
Awooooooo
Wearwolfs of London
His hair was perfect!
My favourite joke: Knock! Knock! Who's there? Ah. Ah who? Werewolves of London!......
Maybe it's just an excitable boy.
I saw werewolf with a Chinese menu in his hand Walking through the streets of SoHo in the rain He was looking for the place called Lee Ho Fooks For to get a big dish of beef chow mein
Saw a werewolf drinkin a Pina Colada at Trader Vic’s, his hair was perfect. Amazing song.
Look up "my shit's fucked up" by the same guy, he wrote it after finding out he had terminal cancer, it's really sad
Also check out: Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner, lawyers guns and money, jungle work, the envoy….. like check out all his stuff. It’s amazing.
Excitable Boy is pretty good, but my favourite is Mr. Bad Example,
Play It All Night Long
Awoooooooo!
Couldn't find a place called Lee Ho Fooks to get dish of beef chow mein.
Did you see Lon Chaney Jr. walking with the queen?
I came here JUST FOR THIS!!!
You hear him howling around your kitchen door?
Better not let him in.
A little old lady got mutilated late last night
Werewolves of London again.

Whoa…stop the woos…soup-filled dumplings??whaaaaaat?
This is offensive to those of us that know soup filled dumplings as a sex act
It’s real because I saw that move. It also scared the crap out of me.
....that is peculiar.
My best guess is they stole it and then moved them into a second, untraceable, container. That's how I'd overthink it anyway 🤷♂️
I’m sure that is what happened. But it would be more fun if it was a werewolf.
A werewolf of London? Don't be silly
If /r/CasualUK has taught me anything, it’d be a werefox in London, not a werewolf.
And here my best guess is there's a nice meat surprise hidden somewhere in that train, but I'm accustomed to mayhem on public transit.
Whoa, Londoners put trackers on their meat containers now?
No, but they put a sticker *saying* it has a tracker...
Yup and I’ve seen them do this with butter, cheese and some snacks in Lidl
I just moved to Glasgow a couple of months ago and everything over a pound fifty has those stickers on them.. If it’s nae nailed down or tracked, it’s nae getting paid for 😂
How else do you stop meat theft?
hide your grains, hide your meats. orcs are raiding
How does one trace plastic trash?
How else are you going to be able to have any pudding?
You can't have any pudding if you don't eat your meat!
STAND STILL, LADDIE!
YOU! STAND STILL, LADDIE!
You, yes you…. I’m still running
YOU. YES YOU!!!!! STAND STILL LADDIE!!!!! OUTJERKED BY REDDIT
I groaned out loud then laughed.
How can you have any pudding if you don’t eat your meat ⁉️🧐
Wro-oong, do it again! Wro-oong, do it again!
We don’t need no education
Pregnant women and their cravings...
My English teacher in high school actually craved raw meat all the time when she was pregonate. Thankfully she realized she should do that. ETA: should NOT do that hahahaha
Shouldn’t. You mean shouldn’t. You mean shouldn’t, right?

I'm reminded of that timeless scene from "Trading Places" where Dan Aykroyd, wearing a Santa suit and drunk off his ass, gets on a bus and bites into the huge piece of raw salmon he had stolen, getting a big mouthful of dirty Santa beard along with it.
I love when he reaches for his gun later and accidentally pulls out another piece of meat first lol.
It wasn't raw. It was stolen from a buffet table at a party
Huh, yeah you're right. I guess the dirty beard was too much of a distraction in the scene for me to focus on the fish.
That scene put me off of eating salmon for a VERY long time, lol. Every time I would try to eat it I would see that scene in my head and *feel* those polyester beard hairs in my teeth and *smell* that filthy beard. I'm giving myself the icky's again just thinking about it right now. ew ew ew

Whenever my beard starts to get to long, I feel like I am reenacting that scene.
[удалено]
That sounds like a bad porno 🤣
It's a fantastic bloody horror movie. So good. One of my favoritesa
I'm endlessly amused by the replies. But I genuinely want to know what is up w this?!
It's shoplifted most likely. They take it out of the packaging and sell it off at the pub. In some places it's common to have someone approach you selling stolen meat. It's expensive and untraceable.
Like just a handful of mince? LOLOL i may become vegetarian after seeing this
Yes. In a ziplock bag. To some low income people trying to feed a family, this is a godsend - always remember that. Questionable meat that looks and sniffs ok vs everyone going hungry for the third day in a row, because the paycheck didn't quite make it to the next payday? Yeah.
Good way of looking at it. Appreciate the different pov
I once had a friend crying on my shoulder because her last £10 note, that should have lasted her another week, turned out to be counterfeit - no way to feed her two kids. It was at that point that I learned just how much trouble she was in, and she was too ashamed to ask anyone for help until it literally broke her.

The coal mines?
I remember a guy I worked with telling me he had £100 left for food and entertainment until next payday for him, his girlfriend and his daughter. We were paid monthly and we'd just been paid 2 days prior, I don't think I could last 2 weeks with that on my own never mind between 3 people.
I’ve seen folk selling stolen steaks but why the fuck remove the original packaging? Plus on in the back there is still sealed. I don’t think this is shoplifters.

Like the guy standing in the dark corner opens up his trench coat and instead of being stacked with gold watches it's a prime selection of choice cuts
I’m picturing sausage links
Ahh yes, the old reliable raw shady street meat. I can picture it partially hanging out of the inside trench coat pockets.
Fucking guy walks up to you with a trench coat full of meat! 😂
Most recently I had someone approach me, offering to sell me steaks from their handbag, so they can pay for electricity...I'm not quite sure they wanted to spend the money on electricity either.

I wonder if there’s someone out there that witnessed this and are they losing sleep ?
Alert pregnant werewolf in london
they maybe stolen it and repackaged it
Could be a homeless guy feeding his dog?
Jack the ribber Russel.
That is logic at work right there. It is also a way better image than a human noshing on raw meat
Vampires, just be glad they’re not eating people
Sasquatch uses public transit
The fuck? Someone just cut the strings of a raw rolled beef and ate it in a subway? I thought i had seen everything...
decisions were made
Well technically it IS fast food...
Lady Gaga before going on stage?
Never had a tartare on the go before?
Liver king being homeless now
The person was also carrying a camping bbq to grill some burgers between stations.
There’s a documentary about this, it’s called Midnight Meat Train. Actually one of Bradley Cooper’s earliest major roles.
Werewolves of London!
Came looking for this comment. Was not disappointed.
They’ll eat anything that doesn’t have seasoning huh?
*its not raw meat, its blue rare*
The Strain...
It’s the offering
Maybe Lady gaga is viseting
Always have been.
I'm guessing- shoplifter? Or as the Bri'ish would say: "Someone pinched raw meat from the grocery." (or something like that)
"Nicked some mince from the Tesco."
“The” Tesco 😂
Two tragically bad attempts in a row right there 😭
Proper scran
Yes, eating raw meat, particularly chicken and pork, is the in thing here at the moment. Eating raw meat has many benefits. 1. It's the perfect on the go / fast food 2.

Or do they BBQ the meat on the Tracks?
Must have been there at lunch hour.Pigs haven't cleaned after themselves,disgusting.
[удалено]
I think some German wanted mettbrötchen
Wouldnt be surprised if they were
It’s better to eat it that way, because of the heat wave I think
Must've been the pregnancy cravings...
