Here’s a new $14,000 bronze bust of Sean Connery erected in the Estonian capital of Tallinn. Why? Because it’s about f***ing time they built a bronze Sean Connery statue in Estonia:
Just…too many softballed Sean Connery jokes to make about this. “Your mother likes it rough Trebek I’m a statue!” That cover it? Good.
Britain’s ambassador to Estonia Peter Carter said at the unveiling that Connery is “without a doubt, an icon… He is variously known as James Bond or the sexiest man of the century.” You’re doing a bang up job, Britain’s ambassador to Estonia.
How long before people forget that it’s actually Sean Connery and start thinking it’s some vaguely important late 19th century military figure but no one has the guts to ask which one, they just assume it’s someone from history they should know? Three years.
