Fair warning about Hotmail.
I didn't check my hotmail account for more than 30 days.
And, it said I need to reactivate it. I did so and all my e-mails were gone. The inbox folder was empty. Maybe it also had to do with the very probable fact that the emails had surpassed its available space.

Warned.

He looked like a kid in high school getting picked on by bullies. (In his reactions)

He practically curled up into a fetal position...

Most of the other people I've seen who've been pied look like they're about to start swinging, not run away...

If I was him I would just wave my billions of dollars in front of everyone.

I feel sorry for him. It's so sad. Some people are real monsters, especially those who throw food at others. :sigh:

You know there's an "NGO" in Belgium which organizes these things: pie throwing to politicians, businessmen etc.

The founder says he enjoyes seeing them lose their all self important composure and their feeling of power, invunerability and haugtiness. He has, in his mind, a reason for each pie thrown.

That "NGO" has branches in many countries in Europe, but not in Greece apparently, where pie throwing is maybe a bit less widespread.

Anyway there was a reportage about this and he encouraged the greek audience and said: "A l'attaque petits Grecs" Very funny.

The way he reacted looks like he got popped in the nose. Easy to do when you're slamming a pie in someone's face.

Nah, they use very soft materials for pies and the plates they use (no crust).

I think he's just a *****.

When our PM got hit the RCMP (IIRC) actually restrained him first, then the guy who threw the pie.

He's got a bit of a "reputation".

I've seen that clip before. Isn't it five or six years old? Still funny though.

Did he get another pie thrown in his face or is this old news?

Yeah, I like the way he walks down the street like, "Yay for me, I'm super rich. Aren't I great." and they Wham!

Hey who was the guy (a well known politician I think) who tried to go after the guy who threw the pie and tried to beat him up? (or was that in Greece? but I think it was in Germany? or maybe not)

The most hilarious incident though has got to be the one where an officer of the government (a very sweat and friendly guy really, not an arrogant "position holder") got a plastic bottle of water thrown at him during one strike (forgot by what union). He went there to "listen and discuss" their demands and there he was getting one right between the eyes

his reaction was hilarious. When the plastic bottle hit him, he kind of blinked absently and then... smiled the most idiotic smile there is
It was especially funny in slow motion re-runs on TV

poor guy.

There was a British politician who did just that a while back in response to an egg IIRC ... ?

Alright. That must been him. Wasn't sure in which country it happened, or the particulars (pie, egg...)

Pie throwers do not approach Jean 'the Mangler' anymore. He is on tape 'taking down' any idiot who thinks assault on a public official is 'cool'.

Rumour is the RCMP doubled the escort to protect the public from the PM.
