Roland Romanov touched the candle, in its solid gold candelabra, to the exquisite Suashish silken tie from Paul Satya Design Studio, then drew back his arm and lobbed the flaming bottle in a high arc toward the oncoming masses.
Oh, how it burned! There was something truly satisfying about seeing
a bottle of Henri IV Dudognon Heritage Cognac Grande Champagne burst into a flaming shower of destruction.
Several of the proletariat, still aflame, staggered into nearby buildings, setting them ablaze. Not a bad result, for something that cost as much as three cruise missiles.
Roland selected another bottle, this one a DIVA Premium Vodka, flavoured with antique paper. The next would be one of the four Wray & Nephew rum bottles, nestled in their custom-made Henk case, behind him.
Grimly, Roland wondered if these revolting peasants knew just how lucky they were, to be dying this way.
The cognac

At GBP1,000,000 per bottle, it makes for very expensive urine. [UnaBubba, Sep 27 2009]

Who is this Roland Romanov fella? |
|
| |
He's Anastasia's creepy cousin. Hopefully the first one they axed. |

I wonder if aged, flavored marshmallows will ever take on the haughty cultural snobbism that drinks based on rotting grapes did. Lord knows chocolate and coffee are trying. |
|
| |
Chocolate is getting close. Kopi Luwak is almost there. Some Chinese teas sell for over a thousd USD per gram. |
|
| |
I think the last price I saw on a Paul Satya diamond tie was about USD$175,000. The cognac was USD$1,945,000. |

Roland is a sleazy bastard. As [Rayford] suggests, you'd kill him first. |

The flaming grenade isn't a very effective as an anti-personnel device, it is more of an anti-vehicle, riot squad deterrent. Peasants would easily have your head. |
|
| |
Thank God that beer isn't flammable. |
|
| |
Hence the sheer profligacy of Roland's actions, [WcW]. |

My only concern with this is that silk and diamonds don't burn.
Silk just melts under intense heat, doesn't it? The annos have
inspired an idea, though... [+] |

"Ah, I love the smell of flaming black treacle in the morning." |

//The flaming grenade isn't a very effective as an anti-personnel device//
It is if the proles are inside a tank.
Maybe tiny Fabergé egg frag grenades?
//diamonds don't burn// Hah! |

Diamond-studded Claymore mines ....... Yay ! |

(Presumably, this chap would indeed be "The Man With The Golden Gun" ? And golden bullets, too ....) |
|
| |
Presumably Trotsky cocktails come with their own ice-pick? |
|
| |
Is that a Limoge Porcelain half-brick you're lobbing? |
|

C4 Fabergé Imperial Easter Eggs should have a fair sort of lethal radius, as they are made from gold, diamonds and other hard stones. |
