Let’s let our imaginations run free for a moment, shall we? Let’s imagine an awful, awful “what-if” scenario in which Barack Obama did NOT win the presidency on election night. Imagining it? No… you’re not doing a very good job. Just imagine the absolute worst moment in the history of humankind… and then multiply it by a kajillion.
Still having trouble imagining it? Well, the following video comes close to what that horrible, horrible moment might have looked like. Behold: six teenagers discovering that David Archuleta did NOT win this year’s American Idol.
There but for the grace of God, go we.
This made my day. Yes, I’m that pathetic.
@ Julie #11
HAH thanks for pointing that out. She then lets out this pathetic little “Noohh” before dropping her head down in agony
I have a friend who is a big David Cook fan who says that he is aware of this video’s existence and has said he watches it sometimes when he starts to feel too full of himself. I’m not sure how that works, exactly, but make of it what you will.
This reminded my of some movie I saw one time and I can’t remember what it is and it’s driving me crazy a little bit.
I think it was some sort of teenage pageant documentary from the 70’s or 80’s and there’s this one scene where they unveil the finalist list to the girls. The camera is mounted on the ceiling looking down and there’s this great mix of despair, joy and rage as each girl figures out where she stands.
That scene was so cool…I wish I could remember where it came from – anybody know? I’ll rent it and post that scene myself if I find out.
The older sister looks sooooo hungry!
This is video birthcontrol.
i was going to kill myself if obama lost. i dont think these girls are that mad
This is the best thing I have ever seen.
Well if it makes the girls feel an better his cd sucks.
Funny? I have a new baby daughter. This shit is terrifying! After watching it eight times with renewed horror, I called Comcast and cancelled our cable.
@ 60, isn’t this on Fox? If so you can still get it… at least until the Hi Def switchover in a few months if you don’t have a hi def TV or a signal converter box for an older TV…
I think most of the posters here have forgotten what it’s like to be in the 6th-7th grade. No doubt due to the many embarrassing things they did, wore, said, etc. For all those haters out there: thank your lucky stars your stupid pubescent antics weren’t caught on video and didn’t wind up on the internet.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
to whoever set up that video camera- thanks for the laugh…. this is hysterical!
