Es lo que tiene internet. Te manda un amigo un enlace porque ha visto esta camiseta y te acuerdas de esa gran escena, y no puedes evitar meter “pulp fiction big mac” en YouTube, y claro, ahí está. Grandioso:
JULES
– Okay now, tell me about the hash bars?VINCENT
What so you want to know?JULES
Well, hash is legal there, right?VINCENT
Yeah, it’s legal, but is ain’t a hundred percent legal. I mean you can’t walk into a restaurant, roll a joint, and start puffin’ away. You’re only supposed to smoke in your home or certain designated places.
JULES
Those are hash bars?VINCENT
Yeah, it breaks down like this: it’s legal to buy it, it’s legal to own it and, if you’re the proprietor of a hash bar, it’s legal to sell it.
It’s legal to carry it, which doesn’t really matter ’cause – get a load of this – if the cops stop you, it’s illegal for this to search you.
Searching you is a right that the cops in Amsterdam don’t have.JULES
That did it, man – I’m fuckin’ goin’, that’s all there is to it.VINCENT
You’ll dig it the most. But you know what the funniest thing about Europe is?JULES
What?VINCENT
It’s the little differences. A lotta the same shit we got here, they got there, but there they’re a little different.JULES
Examples?VINCENT
Well, in Amsterdam, you can buy beer in a movie theatre. And I don’t mean in a paper cup either. They give you a glass of beer, like in a bar. In Paris, you can buy beer at MacDonald’s. Also, you know what they call a Quarter Pounder with Cheese in Paris?JULES
They don’t call it a Quarter Pounder with Cheese?VINCENT
No, they got the metric system there, they wouldn’t know what the fuck a Quarter Pounder is.JULES
What’d they call it?VINCENT
Royale with Cheese.JULES(repeating)
Royale with Cheese. What’d they call a Big Mac?VINCENT
Big Mac’s a Big Mac, but they call it Le Big Mac.JULES
Le Big Mac. What do they call a Whopper?VINCENT
I dunno, I didn’t go into a Burger King. But you know what they put on french fries in Holland instead of ketchup?JULES
What?VINCENT
Mayonnaise.JULES
Goddamn!VINCENT
I seen ‘em do it. And I don’t mean a little bit on the side of the plate, they fuckin’ drown ‘em in it.JULES
Uuccch!
