Italia. One of the most wonderful and equally most difficult places you can visit. Why you may ask? Well besides the fact that my mother is originally from Tuscany (Not really but..), my Italian doesn’t really go further than the occasional Bonjourno and Ciao, and the lovely Italians are apparently not too up to date with their English speaking skills which all in all created quite a interesting adventure.

I know you guys are just eager to know why I was there. I can feel it. I was sent there to participate in a program that is truly unique. I can’t tell you too much about it but I will slip in a few details here and there where I can. For now I’ll walk you through some of the discoveries I came across while roaming Rome.

So apparently Duff beer exists. I’m assuming this is old news, because it was everywhere.

But this on the other hand you probably didn’t know existed. The real Ned Flanders. Enjoy.

When Jimmy talks to the UNC audience about student loans, he decides a slow jam with President Obama and The Roots is appropriate.

Every once in a while, a character is born that is so irritatingly annoying yet funny enough to be on TV and have their own show. This is a prime example of such a character. As annoying as he is, I found him entertaining. As funny as he is though I’ll be sure to carry an whip with me should we cross paths and he tries anything I’ll go all Indiana Jones on his ass.

A comic from poorlydrawnlines.com that really cracked me up. Shows that optimism doesn’t suit all situations. I have no idea why the ant sounds Canadian though.

This really cracked me up. These are made up diary entries of a feline versus that of a canine. Quite a difference.

So out of all the mishaps we’ve seen here in Kuwait this one manages to go international making onto BBC news. Kazakhstan’s shooting team was left stunned at the pedestal after a comedy national anthem from the film Borat was played at a medal ceremony at championships in Kuwait instead of the real one.

The organizers had apparently downloaded the parody anthem from the Borat movie off the internet by mistake. The organisers had downloaded the parody from the internet by mistake.

The spoof song praises Kazakhstan for its superior potassium exports and for having the cleanest prostitutes in the region. The medal ceremony was later rerun with the correct anthem this time. You can view the footage of the ceremony from youtube below.
