Modern Family-Greek Version

I was watching TV the other day and I saw this commercial about a new show: Modern Family. At least, the greek version of it.
And I couldn't help but wonder if the concept was going to work and here are the reasons why.

The Greek version of Modern Family. I'll let you guess who's who.

A. Gay Parents Aren't At All Acceptable in Greece.


Mitch and Cam.
What am I talking about? Gay people aren't at all acceptable.There isn't a chance that two gay men could adopt a baby in Greece. There isn't a chance they would be so open about it the way Mitch and Cam are in the american one. There would be both burnt in stakes- I hope I'm speaking non literally.
Also Lilly's name. Every single name was changed to a greek one, for obvious reasons. But Lilly's name stayed. For some weird reason.




In case you haven't guessed yet, for left to right
Alex, Hailey, Luke and Manny.
B. They should be more concerned about money than they are.
Due to the economical crisis, I would never think that The Dunphies would be able to stay in a house like that, with that many computers etc with only Phil working.








Gloria and Jay. The letters in the box say "Married 6 months"
C. A Columbian woman and a Greek man?You can start the puns about the World Cup after I finish. Quite frankly, I believe there wasn't one Columbian in Greece. (Maybe in vacation?) But, I'm sure there wasn't one Columbian who married a Greek. Gloria is ok, because it's the USA. There are a lot of immigrants from South America so Gloria doesn't seem so odd. But in Greece? In the greek version, everybody acts like it's normal, or at least like an american would act if they saw a columbian in the street, while it shouldn't be. Too unrealistic.


From left to right sitting on the couch: Gloria, Phil, Claire, Jay,
Mitch, Cam. The one standing is probably one of the
 producers.
D. The budget.Even if the economical crisis doesn't exist in the show, it is a problem for the producers. As a result, the quantity of the whole show is much lower than the original one, and as a person who has watched both, it kind of ruins it for me.










Me honest opinion? No one should even bother making a Greek version of Modern Family. The best thing they could do was translate it and air the original one with greek subtitles.

#EndFathersDay Bullshit

I really hope that this trend was made as a joke. If it wasn't, I don't know what kind of pig would say things like that.
First of all, you don't want to celebrate because of reasons, don't fucking celebrate. I understand that you may have your reasons for not having a party every father's day but some people want to celebrate june 14th because of their own reasons. An international day doesn't harm you in any freaking way.
You don't want to see a father's day commercial because your dad died? Your friends are spending father's day with their dads but you can't because he left you three years ago? Do what every person who doesn't have a mum does on mother's day, do what every person who's single does on valentine's day : Forget about it.
Grab some ice cream and watch a God damn movie. Go on Tumblr. Avoid Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Watch anime. Do a Game of Thrones marathon. Sleep. You don't celebrate, you don't care.
I know I'm being a little over the top right now, because #endfathersday is probably a joke, but it got me really irretated.
 Even as a joke, it's a bad one. Go find yourselves some humor and come back later.

A tittle entittled tittle.

Hey there human specimen.
After the terrors of the exams we are currently at Vaya's house with her playing Kindom Hearts and me trying to understand how  to delete the blog thingies.
Rumors say that somebody actually did something prodactive on tumblr.
Why on kindom hearts everybody's hot but the protagonist?
Sympathise with me people of the internet, this is one of the very little times with Zoey on the keyboard.
Yay..
Vaya's terrorizing poor little pirates. Pardon me, she says they are not pirates.
So what is the value of a soul? Seriously now. Necromancers (well not really necromancers because those were simply Hades's followers that predicted the future by socializing with the dead in ancient Greece. This blog just got too educational too soon)  Anyway they use a great number of souls to get other back. So how does that even work??? I've read somewhere that blood is supposed to attract spirits because it is the very indication of life but still...
No matter what you say Final Fantasy is better. (Vaya's winning at a tournament- good for her.)
I think the ideal date for me would be at 4 am talking about weird poetry under the stars. I would say that that was random but in reality the entire thing was so yeah. I don't need your critisism.
Anyway why the only poetry that I have seem floating around the internet lately is about about people's cutting, anorexia and boulimia? I'm not trying to be disrespectful but WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?
What happened to intelligent weird crap with deep meaning that talked about all kind of emotions??
It's just unfair to serious artists these days.
 Well thank you for your time everybody.
I'll be around but you wont see me, like a ninja Jesus basically.
