Our World Cup Overfloweth
So apparently this World Cup thing is a big deal. I know because it keeps breaking Twitter. And when Twitter's down, I'm forced to come to grips with my Twitter addiction, and let me tell you, henchpersons; that is NOT something you want me gripping at the crack of noon.
Anyway, when Twitter isn't broken, it has a handy little "World Cup" definition up, along with a soccer ball icon.
By studying this definition ("the largest sporting event in the world") and icon, I have come to the conclusion that the World Cup has something to do with soccer. Or football. Or something sports related.
And, gauging by the tweets and Facebook statuses I've seen, the World Cup also features a lot of these:
Er, those are supposed to be bees.
No, I don't know why they're puking orange jelly.
Or why their hive has an orange jelly door outlined on it.
The source of the buzzing is hundreds and hundreds of of vuvuzela horns:
which look nothing like this.
So anyway, I guess at this point I should probably show you some Soccer wrecks.
Whut.
Hey, this could be a soccer wreck. I mean, really, do you know what it is? No, you do not. Therefore, I think the real question here is, how do you know it's NOT a soccer wreck? Hmm?
Ok, ok, fine. Here:
No, really, it's a soccer cake. Honest.
Or possibly another soccer cake.
How about a few more traditional black and white "balls?"
Note: At this point, I actually had to google "soccer ball" just to remind myself what they're supposed to look like. In case you're in the same boat, here:
Mmmm. I'm not sure if I want to headbutt it or eat it!
Or something.
I mean, it could be, right? I haven't watched any of it, so you tell me: has anyone been shot with an arrow yet? Or have any of the female cheerleader's feet fallen off?
Janet, Dan W., Nina T., Ann S., Rachel L., Hillary H., Aimee P., Jen E., Brandy B., & Sarah W., if that kind of stuff is going on, then I'm totally checking out the World Cup after all.

Look, the point is that bees buzz. And from what I hear, there's a whole lotta buzzing going on at the World Cup.

Now go scroll up and compare. I'll wait.

All set? Good. One more:
Mmmm. I'm not sure if I want to headbutt it or eat it!(Ok, that's a lie: I'd definitely prefer the headbutt.)
And finally, a cake diorama of the 2010 World Cup:
