I guess you guys have been following the events happening in Iran. I wanted to get a non-Western viewpoint, so I headed over the Al-Jazeera English.
From there I followed a link to this site called Mashable where they had 10 incredible YouTube videos, as they called them.
I watched the first 3 and they were pretty intense. Then my perversity and curiousity jumped a few to watch the one called
''9. June 20: Wounded Girl Dying [GRAPHIC CONTENT]
WARNING: The following video is very graphic, disturbing, and involves the death of an Iranian woman.
DO NOT WATCH unless you feel capable AND are old enough.''
To which I was like ''Pshaw, that's just blog marketing, how bad can it be?''
The answer is that although I love the Bernard blog for its openness and laissez-faire attitude, I could not bring myself to embed the video. C'est bouleversant. It made me sick inside. Sorry to dump this on you, but I had to get it off my chest.
you're the kind of person who will go and touch a bench even though it's clearly labeled "wet paint"
ReplyDeleteyou're such a non-conformist.
And that's why you love me
ReplyDeleteI watched the video. Jesus, that's horrible. It made me feel all sorts of sad on the inside. And sadly I've actually seen worse on the internet. Much much worse.
ReplyDeleteI think I've been entirely desensitized.
Say what you will, I think the MotoX Goons are pretty cool.
ReplyDeleteI wonder which one I'd be, the driver or the matraqueur.
Hmm... tough choice.
Thinking about it, Grands-Mains's got a MotoX! I can't wait to ride Matraque with him.
we should totally have Motox battles. Like joust only funnier.
