it was sometime during this movie, between Chris Pontius playing baseball with his penis, and Steve-O undertaking a "poo cocktail", that the notion i had been developing earlier fully revealed itself - Americans just wanna have fun! Jackass is an atypical American phenomenon, and undoubtedly one of the stupidest pieces of work ever conceived, appealing to the very base levels of humour, yet you can't help but kack yourself laughing!! such a great movie!
Americans are a happy people, and they live life to the fullest!! let's take two examples: halloween, and college football games. halloween is next weekend however decorations have been out for weeks, and there is so much hype leading up to it that it's no doubt gonna be a buzz. it just seems like an awesome excuse for everyone to get a bit crazy and party hard - i love that! i'm sure that's the way all festivities are celebrated here, extremely!
similarly, whenever there's a KU football game on people will "tailgate" - literally put the tailgate down on their trucks/utes amongst hundreds of others, set up a bbq, eat, drink and be merry - anywhere from 11 in the morning till kick off at 6pm. the game is the feature, but they make a whole (really long) day out of it!
