'Only in Florida' Meets 'Joe Pesci is Crazy'

Actor and cherubic madman Joe Pesci allegedly punched a college student in the mouth in Boca Raton, Florida. (For no reason at all I'll note that boca means mouth in Spanish; raton means rat; and Pesci translates almost perfectly as fish in Italian.)

The alleged incident occured after the student asked to take Pesci's photo in a Jamba Juice parking lot. Jamba Juice? Joe Pesci buys stuff at Jamba Juice? I'd never have guessed that. The press, also noting this, is having some fun at the actor's expense.

To show you what an odd intersection Joe Pesci and Jamba Juice is, I've paired up his movie lines with the promotional lines from the smoothie shop.

On fun

Jamba: "To infuse nourishment and fun into the daily lives of each of its customers and the communities it serves."

Pesci: "I'm funny how? I mean funny like I'm a clown, I amuse you? I make you laugh, I'm here to (expletive) amuse you?" — as Tommy DeVito in Goodfellas.
