A ‘Compliment’

Today an American girl said to me, ‘You could get so many drunk girls in Las Vegas!’

At first I was flattered – I was packing my bags – but then I thought about it some more and it turns out that it’s kind of insulting:

What she was effectively saying was that I had the capability to get girls, but first they would have to be intoxicated with alcohol. They’d have to lower their standards and loose their inhibitions before I could ‘get’ them.

And these girls couldn’t be anywhere, oh no, they had to be in Las Vegas! They had to be drunk girls in Las Vegas. A party town. A town with the slogan, ‘what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas’, a saying which means anyone who wasn’t there at the time need not know about it and nothing’s gonna be taken seriously while we’re there.

Today an American girl said to me, ‘You would be able to get so many girls if they were pissed and in a no-string-attached environment’.

Jeez girl – thanks for the ‘compliment’!

I’m still gonna go… Sounds awesome!

‘That’s Amore’ starts at about 1.30, but to get the whole experience it’s worth watching from the top!

God knows why they put the microphone at such an awkward angle to Reva.

Proof you can grow cress on just about anything…

I am SO pleased with this find. Everything about it is incredible. It’s worth watching in it’s entirety!

You have to admire someone who has this much enthusiasm for fridges.

2.05 WOAH! Where did she come from!?

See, it’s not all doom and gloom…

1980′s (Italy)

It seems that 1980′s Italian electro-pop directors weren’t fussed about their acts hitting instruments on time.

Despite this looking like one of Jedwood’s post split projects, I’m actually growing to like this song:

This one reminds me of ‘Get Your Own Back’ for some reason:

Look Sam! A package I’ve been awkwardly holding!

This is like an exercise to spot as many embarrassing moments as possible:

Since this is from an educational program, I’d like to share a few things I’ve learnt:

- Sally lives in one of those ‘saloon-kitchens’.

- You need an egg to make bran muffins.

- Some people can’t tell the difference between a mouth and a bow-tie.

- It’s important to have a script editor, director and actors.
