Honestly, Who Wouldn't Be Proud If Their Son Could Do This?

All credit goes to nymag.com's Vulture blog for unearthing this clip from "Britain's Got Talent."

We'd be embarrassed that we teared up at the office before noon when we watched this, but we did shots before we left the house this morning - so we're a little bit past feeling judged.

Enjoy, and happy Thursday!

You know, we just watched this video again with a straight girlfriend, and it became very clear that only gay people are so easily played like an emotional puppet by this scene. After all, our friend pointed out, it IS just a fag twirling a baton.

Man, straight people don't know anything.

Data point: gay woman - tears running down cheeks. Fuck.

You might be equally moved by a less "gay" clip from the same show:

I thought it was ridiculous that you cried at this clip... Until the very end when I was reduced to sobs.

Oh great. Now I'm all teary at work.

And I didn't do shots before leaving the house. But I may still be drunk from last night.
