The Republic of Awesome

I was blog surfing when I saw this video here.

It’s a cover of Britney Spears ‘Womanizer’ by an RnB group called ‘Ahmir’.

This version is SO MUCH BETTER!!!

It makes Britney’s version look like cotton candy dipped in muddy water - unappetizing and much artifical empty calories.

Listen to the lyrics - it’s about being a womanizer and unashamed about it.

In my honest opinion, I think it works out fine. I know girls who date womanizers even though they know his nature. Then they’ll whine about ‘oh mannnn do you think he’s playing me?’

Yes my dear, he probably is.

The trick is to give them a shred of hope that maybe, just MAYBE, she’d be the one who can tie you down and you’d surrender everything to her. Or hopefully they just don’t care that you’re playin’ them.

Would you date a guy who’s a womanizer?

A husband suspects his wife is cheating on him. Thus, he decides to catch her and publicly humiliate her via a radio show that’s geared towards exposing cheating spouses.

Then his wife turns it around and totally pwns his little bitch ass LOL.

Could you lose €30 million and still joke about getting your dick caught in the zipper?

This guy can.

Morten Lund is an entrepreneur from Denmark. In a nutshell, he is a venture capitalist and had his hand in many techonogical startups, most notably Skype. He was recently declared a bankrupt after losing a big ass amount of money in a newspaper venture.

Watch the video. It’s really inspiring stuff.

Host: “How much did you lose?”

Lund: “Well with my paper project I lost like €30 million…”

Host: ” €30 million…”

Lund: “…and it was all in. So they’re gonna come and pick up my house.”

Host: “Really?”

Lund: “Yeah.”

Host: “That’s pretty bad…”

Lund: “I was happy before, so I’ll probably become happy again.”

(…)

Host: “We have to congratulate Morten on something. In Europe it’s really non-cultural to talk about failure….you hide it… and you’re coming up here on stage in front of 1000+ people to explain how you lost €30 million.”

Lund: “Yeah… but I also once had my dick in the zipper? (chuckles) I mean, we all fail all the time, you know…”

Epic respect.
