Which is More Awesome?
I’ve always found it strange that we Americans think it is so funny to watch other people suffer. Not like, real suffering, of course, but when a person is having a hard time at something that they should be fine at, it’s the funniest thing in the world to us (well, that and someone getting kicked in the balls). That’s the only reason America’s Funniest Home Videos was successful, I think, unless people actually really enjoyed listening to Bob Saget’s creepy little voices.
Needless to say, it seems like we as a society enjoy watching people f-up WAY more than watching them succeed, and that is why this edition of Which is More Awesome will be won by a drunk guy in a fun house and not three dudes who are incredible talent. C’est la vie.
