Et toi?
Note: it's three "pecks" here in la Suisse romande.
Still reeling a bit from the Brexit outcome - I could not imagine that the Brits would be THAT stupid - and apparently neither can a lot of the Brits thenselves believe it.
Ironically, Mr BMe and I had finished watching the Urquhart Trilogy (the British House of Cards that served as the inspiration for the Netflix series) just before the Brexit vote. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_of_Cards_(UK_TV_series)
The whole Brexit experience has been very "Urquhartian" (lots of Shakespearean influence on that series too). One wishes that it were only a TV series, but, if so, it's the ultimate reality TV!

across a whole nation and on a global scale:
"We've just moronically voted ourselves off of the island...duh!" "Oh, wait, could we have a do-over?"
Moi...ça va, merci. Mollo-mollo.
