A Look Back at 2009

This is it – the last post of 2009. Time flies like an arrow (and fruit flies like a banana) and this year really has raced by. On one hand I’m happy to see 2009 draw to a close, it’s been a bit of a rubbish year, but on the other hand there were some great moments and I’m sad to see those go.

It’s that time of year when bloggers around the world review the year and recap their favorite stories of 2009. I’m lucky if I can remember what happened last month but thank the gods  the Internet has kindly reminded me of highlights of the last 12 months. I have included a few of those moments and my general thoughts about the year after the jump.

Happy Holidays!

Sometimes I feel the same way about disco Christmas as I feel about herpes. You may have noticed the absence of Christmas related posts here at Onelargeprawn, and that’s because I have left it til the last moment (much like my present shopping).

We have spent the afternoon hurriedly baking for impending feast – for a novice baker, I think the first batch of chocolate and vanilla swirly cookies we made earlier looks quite nice. I think we’ll have a great time tomorrow and wanted to wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas. If you don’t celebrate Christmas, then here’s hoping you have a relaxing holiday; if you aren’t on holiday then please accept my condolences.

We’re taking a couple of days break from the blog but whatever you have planned, please be safe as there are sure to be lots more drunken revelers about during the festive season. We’d be very sad if anything bad were to happen to our readers, you bring in the advertising money. I’m kidding, what advertising money? ;-)

Happy holidays!

Eminem Gets T-Bagged by Bruno at the MTV Movie Awards

Sacha Baron Cohen never fails to amuse me. The star of the upcoming movie Brüno made a hilarious entrance in the MTV Movie Awards. As he soared into the auditorium with wings strapped on his back, he seemed to hit the rigging, strained his sugar lumps, and splashed down on top of unwitting rapper Eminem. I don’t know if this was ‘planned’ not but Bruno landed face down with his balls in Eminem’s face! Epic win!

Watch the video below. If it gets removed due to copyright infringements, you can try HERE or HERE.

Brüno’s delivered the best male performance ever, but Eminem didn’t take the joke too well and left the stage disgusted. He obviously didn’t get the memo.

BONUS: The 2009 MTV Movie Award winners can be found at Channel 24.
