WTF, Argentina?

[ratcreature]

Not a single goal? Here I had counted on you to put a damper the football craziness (and its related inconveniences for the non-football fans) here, and instead you let yourselves be beaten this badly, and now it's worse than ever. Just -- WTF, Argentina? You seemed so certain you'd win, too.

I guess, I ought to be less Scrooge-like and be happy that other people are having fun, but do they have to honk this much?

I'm sorry, but I'm selfishly satisfied with the result. The vuvuzelas are dead in Buenos Aires now, and I can already feel my crankiness going down.

*envy*
Though I've been told the ones sold in Germany are already a noise reduced kind (incredible as that seems), because the regular vuvuzelas wouldn't have been allowed as too likely to cause serious ear damage. So maybe you need the noise break more.

I think I'd cope better with the noise if it was the only World Cup thing I'd have to notice, rather than the last straw on top of with everything orienting itself towards football from every conversation to the news.
