part 353 whalers on the moon

[aphanon_meme]

We've been here over a year now! I can hardly believe it! Dreamwidth's been pretty good, I'd say, with almost no downtime to speak of and all that! Anyway... how is your spring going? Or I guess it's almost summer, isn't it? Hopefully it's been well! I've been catching up on work and new movies, all very exciting stuff, I'm sure.

Enjoy part 353!

jfc balotelli

the unofficial twenty-third verse of the Italian anthem

that poor guy, i'm just cringing looking at what balotelli did

[romanon]

I missed the thing itself, like I said I'm trying to not look, but the Italian commentators make it sound like a legit in-game foul - but then again they are Italian commentators, Prandelli and co. could be sacrificing a virgin to Satan in the midfield and the Italian commentators would still be talking about how they're actual giants of soccer.

And it's not like Balotelli is new to this kind of stuff. I remember there was talk of not taking him to the Euros because of a very bad foul (not even a foul, actually, a random act of aggression) he committed when he was still playing in England.

he lept up and kneed someone in the back of the head

yeah which makes it even worse imo

[romanon]

Jesus. That kid needs anger management. It's only a matter of time before he breaks somebody's leg and ends a career.

It is really shameful how much bullshit a good player is allowed to get away with in Italy. Not just Balotelli, but also Buffon got away with his involvement in a huge betting scandal, and of course there's Cassano's homophobic comments, and a lot of them get away with para-fascist attitude etc.

I know it's a bit like that in other European countries, too (Zidane, just to make a random example) but I'm reasonably sure nobody got it as bad as us. I love this game, but sometimes I wish Italy sucked at it.

jfc suarez

how often has he bitten someone now?

[romanon]

the Italian commentators say three times

Jesus fuck what a horrible game horrible horrible

Uruguay is going to win with this goal but this is not the game one expects to see from two of the best teams in the world

/dif


Yeahhhhh

I expected a pretty all right game but this is... not what I had in mind. ??? wtf

[romanon]

ugh. ugh ugh ugh. And now Italy decides to start playing. Now.

[(Anonymous)]

Considering Italy only needs one point to advance, who wants to start a drinking game for whenever Italy stalls for time?

[romanon]

Not sure how much we can stall for time with Uruguay. They're usually tough, they score if you slack off. And we might be willing to settle for the tie because we've apparently sent a bunch of geriatrics who whine whenever the weather changes, but they need a clean win to pass and they will fight for it.

Like all teams do pretty much. As I'm typing this I've seen two Italians lying on the ground and making the game grind to a halt within like a minute.

[romanon]

Pffff. I'm so fucking tired of having to root for this team at times.

And now we're playing in ten. Amazing. They're not even fucking able to stall for time.

You know what? I'm just gonna stick to my original intent and look away now. Any minute now. Aaaaand...now.

what's my fucking problem really

[(Anonymous)]

I watched the first half of Uruguay - Italy but now I'll watch the England - Costa Rica game

[(Anonymous)]

C'mon Italy you have 10 minutes left to tie the game

[(Anonymous)]

COSTA RICAAAAA WOOOH!
