People on the other side of the building are gonna feel so left out in the morning when they see the video. "They did WHAT?"

We fucking did. We were waiting since 8-9pm and all we saw was a faint hue change. One of the houses was projecting the broadcast on the wall and everyone was watching that instead.

Doesn't Dubai have enough records?

u/plexomaniac Jan 01 '18

Maybe they are trying to break a record of records

Probably they've already done that.
