    The Word Cup

    Hey well

    I got to hand it to the old country(Well my old country), they pulled it off, and for once out of the usual cynicism I have for the future of SA, for no academic and logical reason, and purely for sentimental ones, I can once again hope that the country will get over the brunt of its socio-economic ills and become the economic powerhouse it has the potential to be. I still actually miss the place after 10+ years away

    My sentimental rantings aside vuvuzelas are actually quite irritating, they where ok on the fringes, but now that every c hunt has got one, I do think they are a bit much. I reckon the spectators have severe tinnitus this morning.

      I'm glad I'm not in one of those stadia with that racket. I was getting a headache watching on TV.

      What worries me is that some barstard starts selling them over here. If people are stupid enough to vote Labour, they are stupid enough to buy those things.

        What do you buy for the kid whose parents you don't like?

        It used to be a set of drums.

        Now I suppose it's a Vuvuzela.

                For F'ks sake - we inflict 100s of morons "chanting" 'Barmy Army... Barmy Army...' for weeks on end...... and you complain about a few geysers blowing their horns!!
                The "Barmy Army" chant has about three notes and the slight hint of a tune. That's like listening to f***ing Mozart compared to those f***ing volvokazoos.

                      Dont think UK chants (actually Liverpool fans are rather good - they should make a record) are comparable to that tuneless racket constantly. Even less reason to watch the boring crap.
