Freddie´s "X" & EXactly What?

 

Can you guess for what Freddie´s letter "X" stands?
In pic above are two hints.
(The sign actually says "Tauben füttern verboten" - "feeding pigeons forbitten", but someone put  dots over the "ü", hence it´s an "u" that makes it "futtern", another word for "eating", or "snacking".)
 
Here  is another:
 
 
Freddie (from the book Freddie Mercury A to Z):
 

 

 
"Not eating pigeons" was the only x-rated thing I came up with.
I am so boring.... 
Well, maybe this counts, too, my 80+-year old tenant on the phone said, she loves the place and most neighbors are nice.
"Except that old guy (!!!) who feeds the shi.... pigeons!!" 
She managed last sec to not say shit, 🤣 
That´s x-rated, right?

Snacking pigeons. I like the pun. Henry enjoying the breeze through his mane. Looks like a good day.

Iris Flavia said...

Yes, clever guy it must´ve been :-)
And indeed there were no pigeons!
Yes, Henry is a cool guy!

I am always sad when I see a dog tied up.
Just this morning I went to walk through Tarquinia, the most important Etruscan town, you cannot imagine the "gifts" sent from the pigeons who live under the ancient roofs and over the towers.

Tauben futtern verboten! Reminds me of the song "Poisoning Pigeons in the Park" :) I also remember a comic strip with an old lady feeding the pigeons in a park ... last frame shows old lady with knife, fork, and napkin - and a roast pigeon on her table.

Tom said...

...I will never understand why people feed pigeons.

Iris Flavia said...

Black Knight, but what if the dog runs away? The owner was in the bakery and that can take a while.... And she was not allowed to bring it in.
Oh, yes, I remember the gifts in Tuscany, but here they try their best, too....

Charlotte, "Poisoning Pigeons in the Park", LOL! Huhhh, we call them "flying rats", I sure would not eat one...

Tom, me, neither! Dumbness?

I've been told that pigeons in Europe are not the same as those in the states. Ours carry up to 119 known diseases. I'm with Tom and don't see why anyone in a park would feed them. LOVE this rated Freddie.

This post made me chuckle. Cute. I don't know about X rated stuff. What about Space X that Elon Musk is famous for? X gets a bum rap sometimes.

Iris Flavia said...

Elizabeth, ours, I think, are not called "flying rats" for no reason...
Yes, Freddie, was someone, huh!

gigi, in Australia words that are x-rated are even beeped out!
Try to watch "Bad Boys", beep, beep, beep....
Hawaii does not have this? We don´t, either.

Henry looks quite relaxed.

Bill said...

Pigeons make messes and they got me one day as I was standing under a tree taking photos. My jacket was a mess and gross.

RedPat said...

Henry is enjoying himself. I always chase the pigeons off my deck.

Iris Flavia said...

Shari, cute pic, huh.

Bill, one sh#t me on my bikini when I lay in the grass reading a book, örks.

Redpat, YES! I built a "fence" around the bird-feeder, that´s for the little birds.

Love Freddy - love Queen!

Iris Flavia said...

Me also! :-)
Not a surprise now, eh...

DVArtist said...

You are so funny. I would love to meet you in real life. We would have so much fun together.

I love that song by Queen "Bikcyle"
Coffee is on and stay safe

Iris Flavia said...

Nicole, oh, that would be awesome!
I also always wanted to visit your country anyways!

Dora, yes, it´s fun! Sadly these days with the e-bikes racing like crazy... not so much fun anymore!

Jeanie said...

I've loved this fun series. And Henry look like he's enjoying the day!

Iris Flavia said...

Thank you, glad you liked it, it was fun! :-)
