Incidentally, this is something that completely and utterly fails to work in translations.

I'm told Portuguese translations are Pretty Good but since I don't actually speak/read Portuguese there's a splash of telephone game going on here.

it was actually supposed to be a storm of swords but there was an angelic mishap and they were cut to ribbits instead

probably the same entity at fault that was messing about in the Bugger Alle This printing of the bible

I'm a pretty big fan of the Tasting History youtube channel and his little gag of, whenever he says "hardtack", cutting to the clip where he bangs two pieces together with a hilarious "clonk clonk" has yet to overstay its welcome.
