The lowest common denominator
I have to admit, I was intrigued by the link (yes, Dronken means what you suspect it does) to a Belarusian soccer (that's pronounced FOOT-BALL, people) referee who had approximately 5,291 drinks at halftime during a match (is that what they call these f*$#in things? I'm American, dammit, unless a particular event is silently sponsored by a bunch of steroids that haven't been named yet, it just ain't football), and so I couldn't help but watch it.
What I did not anticipate was seeing this video in YouTube's "Related Videos" section. If you're a dude, you probably don't want to view this at your place of employment. If you're a woman, you probably don't want to view this unless you're a lesbian and you wish for the four-eyed geeks who administer your corporate spy software to know that you're a lesbian. After very careful review of the cinematography, I've concluded the following:
- Europeans are more progressive than Americans are.
- WTF?
And, yes, if you've arrived at the supposition that I still haven't thought of anything substantive to write about, you can give yourself a point. Additionally, I offer the following:
- The lyrics are in English. Not that it means anything (unless you consider, "Techno sucks. Even the techno that Europeans like" to be something).
- Slow clap to the
soft-pornographersfilmmakers who elected to employ the white vs. dark, good vs. evil theme. As always in crappy fiction, good prevails. - They couldn't have done another take around the one minute mark in which the ref flipped the coin vertically? Seriously, does film cost as much as gas in Europe?
- Models -- anywhere -- will do anything to collect a paycheck.
I still don't have anything to write about. Feel free to submit your suggestions in the comments section. And, no, I don't care if you've lost respect for me. Additionally, no, I don't care if you never had any respect for me.
