В общем, пару дней назад ванкуверские Canucks проиграли Бостону в плей-оффе Stanley Cup. И тут Ванкувер разбушевался. Мне смешно, потому что эти riots не сравнятся с питерским фтболом или омским хоккеем, а местные СМИ осветили то событие как конец света :-)
В Интернете появились вот такие
видео А больше всего меня порадовала вот эта картинка:
И запись в местном блоге:
"Thank you, vandals. Genuinely.
To the drunken neds who tore the windscreen wipers off my car two nights ago:
Thank you.
I'm being serious here. I doubt that you'll ever read this, but I seriously and unironically want to thank you for what you did. Thanks to you, I was late to work yesterday. I couldn't drive in the rain without wipers, so I had to walk to halfords to buy new ones. At halfords, I was bought my wipers from the woman behind the counter, and she asked why I was so wet and angry looking. I explained and she offered to take me for a drink that night to drown my sorrows. We met up after work and sat talking for a good five hours. Then we met up for lunch today We're meeting up again tonight, and I know it's soon, but I am falling for this girl, hard. So thank you again for helping me meet someone who is, quite frankly, amazing. I really do appreciate it.
You fucking bastards."
