Slang / parolacce | | Italian term or phrase: un giro di banane in culo | | si tratta di un estratto da un documentario sul g8 di Genova e in una telefonata un poliziotto pronuncia questa frase: "perché qui c’è tutta una sovrapposizione di notizie, di informazioni che potrebbero lasciar prevedere un giro di banane in culo che metà basta"...qualcuno ha qualche idea per esprimere il concetto in inglese??? |
| | | a bunch of bananas shoved up our ass | Explanation:
the meaning is sort of what Barbara has said, even if the whole matter of G8 is totally messed up, and policemen were sure the situation could explode and be like a "boomerang". |

Explanation:
Lasciando la traduzione sotto forma slang (di strada), so potrebbe tradurre cosi:
"cause here there's a hurdle of clashing news, information that promises more shit than we can handle"....
Cruente ma attuale.
