This is a strange comedian from Glasgow - Limmy. Surreal, dark, fucked up, not necessarily rolling about laughing, confuses, perplexes...makes you feel awkward. This clip makes me laugh. The cruel idea of having your Mum get beaten up - is somehow funny. You can imagine a posh Glaswegians shock, and yet, Glasgow neds, get beaten up as a matter of course. Here's some clips: odd.

Love that scene from 'The Gift' thanks for sharing. Every Church should really be a cathartic realise of something ridiculous.

http://www.timesofmalta.com/articles/view/20101005/local/the-wayward-busBasically, one of the two women (the one in white) is accusing the other (yellow) that she hit her ankle purposely, and also, later on, that she cohabited and the she is a "dirty woman" and "an evil woman" - the insults go both way though. The poor husband (matching his wife in yellow) seems quite subservient to his wife; the tourists on the left are having the time of their lives watching a local bitchfight which isn't much of a fight considering that it is over very trivial, and I do mean trivial matters. Nonetheless, it is hilarious; no one speaks Maltese I know, but still, the shouts, and the general atmosphere of the bus is close enough to classical Mediterranean disorder.

Those kinds of arguments go on in the public transportation in Malta? |

You won't find them on every bus, but being so disorganized and antiquated a system, it means that it's relatively noisy:
Enjoyable for some perhaps, but still, the underlying theme is loudness. Tourists seem to enjoy it. But yeah, if you make use of the public transport system on say a weekly basis, you'll get to see similar things, perhaps not of that extremity (this bus was going to one of the more dilapidated parts of the islands), but you know, the 'near-pension age, fat ugly woman' is a very common stereotype here in Malta, and I'll tell you, it sure isn't pleasing having to sit on bus in traffic or being driven over thousands of potholes whilst being squashed by one of their giant thighs and blobs of breast. It's quite common to read letters here from foreigners about being mistreated by bus drivers; and oh, they tend to be somewhat racist - it used to be rather common, up to a couple of years ago or so, to see a Somali immigrant chasing a bus from bus stop to bus stop. |

Kind of makes me grateful for the uptight, politically correct bus rides in the states. Boring as fuck, but peaceful. And the bus drivers have uniforms, not just whatever they happen to find on the floor next to their bed when they wake up. Alright. And thanks. |
