    Well smooth move on your part then.

    Still, it's a good idea to really get to know the woman if she could be the future mother of your children. You don't want to already have your second kid together before you realize you married a freak.


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    I agree. You should find out up front if she even knows what a "Swinger Party" is, let alone has ever attended one.

    Or if she's interested in attending one in the future... bow chicky bow wow!

    I really hated Borat, and I went into this movie with that hatred in mind, and because of such low expectations I didn't completely dislike this movie, it was slightly pleasantly surprising to a degree. It wasn't great, but it definitely had some hilarious scenes. When people who are clearly homophobic are forced into these kinds of situations it always leads to teh funnies, even if it's not real.

    I did question how much of the movie was staged and how much was genuine. For instance, the 3 hunters. Maybe the producers said "we're shooting a documentary, here's $5k, just let him stay overnight with you on your trip. He's a little bit culturally confused, but be patient with him, if he tries to talk to you please try and talk back". You can see at times the 3 guys are biting their tongues trying not to react, but then the overnight antics obviously became too much.

    So yeah. Real or staged?

    Well, staged in the sense that yes, clearly they agreed to be included in whatever documentary they told they were being included in, but not staged in the sense that they were actors who were in on the joke.

    Like the Paula Abdul scene, she wasn't in on it, but the Mexican people obviously were.

    I think the only "staged" scene was the Dominatrix. Apart from that scene feeling completely scripted, she was the only person whose nudity wasn't censored. The falling out of the window was also clearly set up before hand.

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

    I think the reason Bruno worked okay on the Ali G show was because fashionistas really are as dense and trite as the Bruno character was. Everybody in the field is looking for validation, and they are yes men, for the most part. So Cohen abused that, and got people to admit really ridiculous things or otherwise show stupidity. In short, it worked because he fit in with them so well.

    This sounds pretty different though.

    It really is. There's only about 15 minutes of footage containing what you described. The rest is shock humor.

    At first I thought that link was going to be the "Paris Hilton" one, which I consider to be Bruno's best moment.
