You will never be this happy about anything



Audio from the Honduran broadcast of the US/Costa Rica World Cup qualifier from last night, in which some American guy you never heard of sent a corner kick to some other American guy you never heard of, who tied the game 2-2 in the final seconds of the game.

The tie meant that Honduras grabbed the 3rd automatic qualification spot for the region and will make only their second World Cup appearance ever and first since 1982. I can't tell, does it sound like they're excited? No one in America will be that excited if the US wins the World Cup. I don't think anyone in America has been that excited in years. Well not since someone looked at home prices and screamed "These are gonna go up forever! Let's turn this shit into some derivatives, and credit default swaps and get 'fuck you' rich!"

Hopefully Honduran excitement ends up better for them than it did for us. Though after a military coup, there's nowhere to go but up.
