Negin Farsad prepliće komediju i društvenu kritiku tako što pametno podriva stereotipe o svojoj kulturi. U ovom intenzivnom, bučnom hibridu govora i stendap komedije, Farsed govori o svom dokumentarcu: "Stižu muslimani!", pripoveda o svom sukobu sa podzemnom železnicom u Njujorku i nudi detaljno obrazloženje različitih tipova mrzitelja koje susreće na svom poslu. "Komedija je među našim najboljim oružjima", kaže. "Isprobali smo mnogo pristupa društvenoj pravdi, poput rata i takmičarskog plesa na ledu - ali i dalje su mnoge stvari užasne. Smatram da je vreme da pokušamo da ispričamo zaista dobar vic o kaki."

Ja sam iransko-američka muslimanka,
00:18
like all of you.
1

1264
poput svih vas.
00:19
And I'm also a social justice comedian,
2
7455
2309
Takođe sam komičarka društvene pravde,
00:21
something that I insist is an actual job.
3
9788
2315
insistiram da je to stvarni posao.
00:24
To explain what that is,
let me tell you how I got here.
let me tell you how I got here.

12127
2667
Da bih to objasnila,
ispričaću vam kako sam stigla ovde.
ispričaću vam kako sam stigla ovde.
00:26
I've performed all over the country.
5
14818
1755
Nastupala sam širom države.
00:28
And let me tell you,
America is majestic, right?
America is majestic, right?
6
16597
2297
I da vam kažem,
Amerika je veličanstvena, zar ne?
Amerika je veličanstvena, zar ne?
00:30
It's got breathtaking nature,
7
18918
1725
Ima prirodu koja oduzima dah,
00:32
waffle houses
8
20667
1150
restorane vafli
00:33
and diabetes as far as the eye can see.
9
21841
1983
i dijabetesa dokle ti pogled seže.
00:35
It is really something.
10
23848
1912
Stvarno je nešto posebno.
00:37
Now, the American population
can be broken up
can be broken up
11
25784
2239
Sad, američka populacija
može da se razloži
može da se razloži
00:40
into three main categories:
12
28047
1541
na tri glavne kategorije:
00:41
there's mostly wonderful people,
13
29612
1738
imamo uglavnom divne ljude,
00:43
haters
14
31374
1151
mrzitelje
00:44
and Florida.
15
32549
1151
i Floridu.
00:45
(Laughter)
16
33724
1583
(Smeh)
00:47
Besides Florida, the most troubling
category here are the Haters.
category here are the Haters.
17
35331
3314
Pored Floride, najproblematičnija
kategorija ovde su mrzitelji.
kategorija ovde su mrzitelji.
00:50
They are a minority,
18
38669
2189
Oni su manjina,
00:52
but they overcompensate
by being extra loud.
by being extra loud.
19
40882
2503
ali to nadoknađuju
svojom preteranom glasnošću.
svojom preteranom glasnošću.
00:55
They have the Napoleon complex
of demographics,
of demographics,
20
43409
2309
Imaju Napoleonov demografski kompleks
00:57
and yes, some of the men do wear heels.
21
45742
2068
i, da, neki od muškaraca nose štikle.
00:59
As a social justice comedian,
22
47834
2103
Kao komičarka društvene pravde,
moj je cilj da preobratim ove mrzitelje,
01:01
it's my goal to convert these haters,
23
49961
1868
01:03
because they hate a lot of things,
which leads to negative outcomes,
which leads to negative outcomes,
24
51853
3206
zato što oni mrze štošta,
to vodi do negativnih ishoda,
to vodi do negativnih ishoda,
01:07
like racism, violence and Ted Nugent.
25
55083
3611
poput rasizma, nasilja i Ted Nudženta.
01:11
This is not an exhaustive list;
26
59400
1882
Nije ovo iscrpna lista;
01:13
I'm probably missing 3-7 items.
27
61306
1674
verovatno mi fali 3-7 stavki.
01:15
But the point is,
28
63004
1222
No, poenta je:
01:16
we have to reckon with the haters.
29
64250
1729
moramo da se bavimo mrziteljima.
01:18
But there's variance within this group
30
66003
1811
Ali imamo varijacije unutar ove grupe
01:19
and it's not efficient to go
after all of them, right?
after all of them, right?
31
67838
3021
i nije efikasno napadati sve njih, zar ne?
01:22
So what I've done is created
a highly scientific Taxonomy of Haters.
a highly scientific Taxonomy of Haters.
32
70883
3513
Pa sam ja stvorila
krajnje naučnu klasifikaciju mrzitelja.
krajnje naučnu klasifikaciju mrzitelja.
01:26
I basically took all of the haters,
33
74420
1723
U suštini sam uzela sve mrzitelje,
01:28
I put them in a petri dish,
like a scientist,
like a scientist,
34
76167
2846
stavila ih u petrijevu posudu,
poput naučnice,
poput naučnice,
01:31
and this is what I found.
35
79037
1459
i ovo sam otkrila.
01:32
(Laughter)
36
80520
1151
(Smeh)
01:33
First off, we have the trolls.
37
81695
2294
Pre svega imamo trolove.
01:36
These are your garden-variety
digital haters.
digital haters.
38
84013
2383
To su vam uobičajeni digitalni mrzitelji.
01:38
They're the people who quit their jobs
39
86420
1866
To su ljudi koji su napustili poslove
01:40
so they can post on YouTube
videos all day long.
videos all day long.
40
88310
3114
kako bi mogli da komentarišu
Jutjub snimke po ceo dan.
Jutjub snimke po ceo dan.
01:43
There's also the drive-by haters.
41
91448
2661
Imamo i mrzitelje u naletu.
01:46
Now, these people will be at a stoplight,
42
94133
2292
Sad, ti ljudi stoje na semaforu,
01:48
they'll wait for the light to turn green
43
96449
1969
čekaju da se uključi zeleno svetlo,
01:50
and when it does, they yell,
"Go back to your own country!"
"Go back to your own country!"
44
98442
2822
a kad se uključi, viču:
"Vratite se u svoju zemlju!"
"Vratite se u svoju zemlju!"
01:53
Now back in the day, they would've
actually gotten out of their cars
actually gotten out of their cars
45
101288
3217
Sad, u stara vremena bi zapravo
izašli iz svojih auta
izašli iz svojih auta
01:56
and hated you to your face.
46
104529
1292
i mrzeli bi vas u lice.
01:57
But they just don't make them
like they used to --
like they used to --
47
105845
2378
Ali više ih ne proizvode kao nekada -
02:00
which is another sign
of the decline in America.
of the decline in America.
48
108247
2285
to je još jedan znak propasti Amerike.
02:02
(Laughter)
49
110556
1174
(Smeh)
02:04
The next category
50
112293
1151
Sledeća kategorija
02:05
is the mission-oriented-bigot-
whose-group-affiliation-
whose-group-affiliation-
51
113468
2643
su orjentisani-na-misiju-bigoti-
čije-grupne-sklonosti-

im-daju-pokriće-za-mržnju mrzitelji.
02:08
gives-them-cover-for-hating hater.
52
116135
1668
02:09
These guys like to hate
via a seemingly nice organization,
via a seemingly nice organization,
53
117827
3538
Ovi likovi vole da mrze
putem naoko finih organizacija,
putem naoko finih organizacija,
02:13
like a church or a nonprofit,
54
121389
2173
poput crkvi ili neprofitnih organizacija,
02:15
and they oftentimes like to speak
in an old-timey voice.
in an old-timey voice.
55
123586
2714
i često vole da govore
arhaičnim glasovima.
arhaičnim glasovima.
02:18
But the group I'm most
interested in is the swing hater.
interested in is the swing hater.
56
126324
4540
Ali grupa koja mene najviše interesuje
su neodlučni mrzitelji.
su neodlučni mrzitelji.
02:22
The swing hater is sister
to the swing voter --
to the swing voter --
57
130888
3587
Neodlučna mrziteljka je sestra
neodlučnog glasača -
neodlučnog glasača -
02:26
they just can't decide!
58
134499
1729
oni prosto ne mogu da se odluče!
02:28
They're like ideological sluts
59
136252
1878
Oni su poput ideoloških drolja
02:30
who move from hating to not hating.
60
138154
1990
koje se kreću od mržnje ka nemržnji.
02:32
And they do it because they don't have
enough information.
enough information.
61
140168
2755
A to rade jer nemaju dovoljno informacija.
02:34
This is the group I like to target
with social justice comedy.
with social justice comedy.
62
142947
2978
Ovo je moja omiljena ciljna grupa
za komediju društvene pravde.
za komediju društvene pravde.
02:37
Why comedy?
63
145949
1310
Zašto komediju?
02:39
Because on a scale of comedy to brochure,
64
147283
2529
Jer na lestvici od komedije do brošure,
02:41
the average American prefers comedy,
as you can see from this graph.
as you can see from this graph.
65
149836
3698
prosečan Amerikanac više voli komediju,
kao što vidite na ovom grafikonu.
kao što vidite na ovom grafikonu.
02:45
(Laughter)
66
153558
1151
(Smeh)
02:46
Comedy is very popular.
67
154733
1360
Komedija je veoma popularna.
02:48
And by the way,
68
156117
1151
I, usput,
02:49
this is a mathematically accurate graph,
69
157292
1946
ovo je matematički precizan grafikon,
02:51
generated from fake numbers.
70
159262
1524
proistekao iz lažnih brojki.
02:52
(Laughter)
71
160810
1477
(Smeh)
02:54
Now, the question is:
72
162311
1185
Sad, pitanje je:
02:55
Why does social justice comedy work?
73
163520
2785
zašto komedija društvene pravde deluje?
02:58
Because, first off, it makes you laugh.
74
166329
2699
Pre svega, zato što vas zasmejava.
03:01
And when you're laughing,
you enter into a state of openness.
you enter into a state of openness.
75
169052
3162
A kad se smejete,
zapadate u stanje otvorenosti.
zapadate u stanje otvorenosti.
03:04
And in that moment of openness,
76
172238
1558
A u tom trenutku otvorenosti,
03:05
a good social justice comedian
can stick in a whole bunch of information,
can stick in a whole bunch of information,
77
173820
3664
dobar komičar društvene pravde
može da ugura čitavu hrpu informacija,
može da ugura čitavu hrpu informacija,
03:09
and if they're really skilled,
78
177508
1530
a ako su zaista vešti
03:11
a rectal exam.
79
179062
1151
i rektalni pregled.
03:12
(Laughter)
80
180237
2533
(Smeh)
03:14
Here are some ground rules
for social justice comedy:
for social justice comedy:
81
182794
3201
Evo nekih osnovnih pravila
kod komedije društvene pravde:
kod komedije društvene pravde:
03:18
first off, it's not partisan.
82
186019
1959
pre svega nije stranačka.
03:20
This isn't political comedy,
this is about justice,
this is about justice,
83
188002
2541
To nije politička komedija,
ovde se radi o pravdi,
ovde se radi o pravdi,
03:22
and no one is against justice.
84
190567
1697
a niko nije protiv pravde.
03:24
Two, it's inviting and warm,
85
192288
1993
Po dva: dobronamerna je i topla,
03:26
it makes you feel like you're sitting
inside of a burrito.
inside of a burrito.
86
194305
2761
osećate se kao da sedite
unutar toplog burita.
unutar toplog burita.
03:29
Three, it's funny but sneaky,
87
197090
2405
Pod tri: smešno je, ali podmuklo,
03:31
like you could be hearing
an interesting treatise
an interesting treatise
88
199519
2796
kao na primer, slušate zanimljiv traktat
03:34
on income inequality,
89
202339
1214
o nejednakom prihodu,
03:35
that's encased in a really
sophisticated poop joke.
sophisticated poop joke.
90
203577
2914
koji je upakovan
u zaista prefinjen vic o kaki.
u zaista prefinjen vic o kaki.
03:38
(Laughter)
91
206515
1619
(Smeh)
03:40
Here's how I see
social justice comedy working.
social justice comedy working.
92
208158
3023
Evo kako ja vidim
komediju društvene pravde na delu.
komediju društvene pravde na delu.
Pre nekoliko godina sam okupila gomilu
muslimansko-američkih komičara -
muslimansko-američkih komičara -
03:43
A few years ago, I rounded up a bunch
of Muslim-American comedians --
of Muslim-American comedians --
93
211205
3298
03:46
in a non-violent way --
94
214527
1166
u nenasilnom maniru -
03:47
(Laughter)
95
215717
1524
(Smeh)
03:49
And we went around the country
96
217265
1472
I išli smo širom zemlje,
03:50
to places like Alabama, Arizona,
Tennessee, Georgia --
Tennessee, Georgia --
97
218761
2937
na mesta poput Alabame, Arizone,
Tenesija, Džordžije -
Tenesija, Džordžije -
03:53
places where they love the Muzzies --
98
221722
2199
mesta gde vole "mazije" -
03:55
and we did stand-up shows.
99
223945
2688
i imali smo stendap predstave.
03:58
We called the tour
"The Muslims Are Coming!"
"The Muslims Are Coming!"
100
226657
2314
Nazvali smo turneju:
"Stižu muslimani!"
"Stižu muslimani!"
04:00
(Laughter)
101
228995
2265
(Smeh)
04:03
We turned this into a movie,
102
231284
1706
Pretvorili smo to u film,
04:05
and then after the movie came out,
103
233014
2224
a potom, kad je film izašao,
04:07
a known hate group spent 300,000 dollars
104
235262
3403
poznata grupa mrzitelja
je potrošila 300.000 dolara
je potrošila 300.000 dolara
04:10
on an anti-Muslim poster campaign
105
238689
2121
na protivmuslimansku kampanju posterima
04:12
with the MTA -- that's
the New York City subway system.
the New York City subway system.
106
240834
2871
u MTA-u - to jest njujorškoj
podzemnoj železnici.
podzemnoj železnici.
Sad, posteri su uistinu bili uvredljivi,
04:15
Now, the posters were truly offensive,
107
243729
1846
04:17
not to mentioned poorly designed --
108
245599
1761
da ne pominjem loš dizajn -
04:19
I mean, if you're going to be bigoted,
109
247384
1834
mislim, ako ćete da budete bigoti,
04:21
you might as well use a better font.
110
249242
1752
barem koristite bolji font.
04:23
(Laughter)
111
251018
1001
(Smeh)
04:24
But we decided, why not launch
our own poster campaign
our own poster campaign
112
252043
3952
Ali smo odlučili, zašto da ne pokrenemo
sopstvenu kampanju posterima
sopstvenu kampanju posterima
04:28
that says nice things about Muslims,
113
256019
1874
koja govori lepe stvari o muslimanima,
04:29
while promoting the movie.
114
257917
1247
dok promoviše film.
04:31
So myself and fellow comedian
Dean Obeidallah

115
259188
2125
Pa smo ja i kolega komičar
Din Obidala

odlučili da pokrenemo kampanju borbe-
protiv-netrpeljivosti-divnim-posterima.
protiv-netrpeljivosti-divnim-posterima.

decided to launch the fighting-bigotry-
with-delightful-posters campaign.
with-delightful-posters campaign.
116

04:36
We raised the money, worked
with the MTA for over 5 months,

117
264857

Sakupili smo novac,
sarađivali s MTA preko pet meseci,

04:40
got the posters approved,
118
268631

dobili dozvolu za postere

and two days after they
were supposed to go up,

119
269966
2879
i dva dana nakon što je trebalo
da postave postere,
da postave postere,
04:44
the MTA decided to ban the posters,
120
272869
3147
MTA su odlučili da ih zabrane,
04:48
citing political content.
121
276040
1836
navodeći politički sadržaj kao razlog.
04:49
Let's take a look
at a couple of those posters.

Džastina Timberlejka.
Džastina Timberlejka.
05:06
(Laughter)
130
294475
1079
(Smeh)
05:07
Let's take a look at another one.
131
295578
1882
Pogledajmo još jedan.
05:09
The ugly truth about Muslims:
132
297484
1429
Ružna istina o muslimanima:
05:10
they have great frittata recipes.
133
298937
2588
imaju odlične recepte za fritatu.
05:13
Now clearly, frittatas are considered
political by the MTA.
political by the MTA.
134
301549
4507
Sad, očito da MTA smatra
fritatu ispolitizovanom.
fritatu ispolitizovanom.
05:18
Either that, or the mere mention
of Muslims in a positive light
of Muslims in a positive light
135
306080
3457
To, ili puko pominjanje muslimana
u pozitivnom svetlu
u pozitivnom svetlu
05:21
was considered political -- but it isn't.
136
309561
2024
se smatra ispolitizovanim - ali nije.
05:23
It's about justice.
137
311609
1253
Radi se o pravdi.
05:24
So we decided to change
138
312886
1159
Pa smo promenili
05:26
our fighting-bigortry-
with-delightful-posters campaign
with-delightful-posters campaign
139
314069
2608
kampanju borbe-protiv-
netrpeljivosti-divnim-posterima
netrpeljivosti-divnim-posterima
05:28
and turn it into the fighting-bigotry-
with-a-delightful-lawsuit campaign.
with-a-delightful-lawsuit campaign.
140
316701
3479
i pretvorimo je u kampanju borbe-protiv-
netrpeljivosti-divnom-tužbom.
netrpeljivosti-divnom-tužbom.
05:32
(Laughter)
141
320224
1615
(Smeh)
05:33
So basically, what I'm saying
is a couple of dirt-bag comedians
is a couple of dirt-bag comedians
142
321863
2964
U suštini vam govorim
da je nekoliko ništavnih komičara
da je nekoliko ništavnih komičara
05:36
took on a major New York City agency
143
324851
2531
tužilo veliku njujoršku agenciju
05:39
and the comedians won.
144
327406
1540
i komičari su pobedili.
05:40
(Applause and cheers)
145
328970
2576
(Aplauzi i klicanja)
05:43
Thank you.
146
331570
1151
Hvala vam.
05:44
Victory was a very weird feeling.
147
332745
1723
Pobeda je imala čudan osećaj.
05:46
I was like, "Is this what
blonde girls feel like all the time?
blonde girls feel like all the time?
148
334492
2936
U fazonu: "Da li se ovako
plavuše osećaju sve vreme?
plavuše osećaju sve vreme?
05:49
'Cause this is amazing!"
149
337452
1319
Jer je neverovatno!"
05:50
(Laughter)
150
338795
2000
(Smeh)
05:53
Here's another example.
151
341702
1491
Evo još jednog primera.
05:55
I'm asked everywhere I go:
"Why don't Muslims denounce terrorism?"
"Why don't Muslims denounce terrorism?"
152
343999
3229
Gde god da odem, pitaju me:
"Zašto muslimani ne osuđuju terorizam?"
"Zašto muslimani ne osuđuju terorizam?"
05:59
We do. But OK, I'll take the bait.
153
347252
2191
Osuđujemo. Ali, u redu, zagrišću mamac.
06:01
So I decided to launch
thedailydenouncer.com.
thedailydenouncer.com.
154
349467
2646
Pa sam odlučila da pokrenem
thedailydenouncer.com.
thedailydenouncer.com.
06:04
It's a website that denounces
terrorism every day of the week,
terrorism every day of the week,
155
352137
2960
To je vebsajt koji svakodnevno
osuđuje terorizam,
osuđuje terorizam,
06:07
while taking the weekends off.
156
355121
1481
uz pauzu tokom vikenda.
06:08
Let's take a look at an example.
157
356626
2358
Pogledajmo jedan primer:
06:11
They generally appear
as single-panel cartoons,
as single-panel cartoons,
158
359008
2397
obično se pojavljuju
kao crtaći u jednoj slici:
kao crtaći u jednoj slici:
06:13
"I denounce terrorism! I also denounce
people who never fill the paper tray!"
people who never fill the paper tray!"
159
361429
4419
"Osuđujem terorizam! Kao i ljude
koji nikad ne dopune papir u štampaču!"
koji nikad ne dopune papir u štampaču!"
06:17
The point of the website
is that it denounces terrorism
is that it denounces terrorism
160
365872
2815
Poenta vebsajta je osuđivanje terorizma,
06:20
while recognizing that it's ridiculous
161
368711
2136
uz prepoznavanje bizarnosti toga
06:22
that we have to constantly
denounce terrorism.
denounce terrorism.
162
370871
2761
da moramo stalno da osuđujemo terorizam.
06:25
But if bigotry isn't your thing,
163
373656
2251
No, ako netrpeljivost nije vaš manir,
06:27
social justice comedy is useful
for all sorts of issues.
for all sorts of issues.
164
375931
3391
komedija društvene pravde
je korisna za razna pitanja.

06:31
For example, myself and fellow
comedian Lee Camp

165
379346
2891
Na primer, kolega komičar Li Kamp i ja
06:34
went to the Cayman Islands
to investigate offshore banking.

166
382261
3465
smo išli na Kajmanska ostrva
kako bismo istražili ofšor bankarstvo.

06:37
Now, the United States loses
something like 300 billion dollars a year
something like 300 billion dollars a year
167
385750
4905
Sad, SAD gubi otprilike
300 milijardi dolara godišnje
300 milijardi dolara godišnje
06:42
in these offshore tax havens.
168
390679
1825
u ovim ofšor poreskim rajevima.
06:44
Not to brag,
169
392528
1254
Ne hvalim se,
06:45
but at the end of every month,
170
393806
1468
ali na kraju svakog meseca
06:47
I have something like 5-15 dollars
in disposable income.

171
395298
2644
imam otprilike 5-15 dolara
raspoloživog prihoda.

06:49
So we walked into these banks
in the Cayman Islands

172
397966
2472
Te smo ušetali u te banke
na Kajmanskim ostrvima
na Kajmanskim ostrvima
06:52
and asked if we could
open up a bank account
open up a bank account
173
400462
2156
i pitali smo možemo li
da otvorimo bankovni račun
da otvorimo bankovni račun
06:54
with eight dollars and 27 cents.
174
402642
2046
sa osam dolara i 27 centi.
06:56
(Laughter)
175
404712
1803
(Smeh)
06:58
The bank managers would indulge us
for 30-45 seconds before calling security.
for 30-45 seconds before calling security.
176
406539
5431
Menadžeri banke bi nam povlađivali
30-45 sekundi pre pozivanja obezbeđenja.
30-45 sekundi pre pozivanja obezbeđenja.
07:03
Security would come out,
brandish their weapons,
brandish their weapons,
177
411994
2572
Obezbeđenje bi izašlo,
mahalo svojim oružjem,
mahalo svojim oružjem,
07:06
and then we would squeal
with fear and run away,
with fear and run away,
178
414590
2770
a mi bismo zacičali od straha i pobegli
07:09
because -- and this is the last
rule of social justice comedy --
rule of social justice comedy --
179
417384
3029
jer - ovo je poslednje pravilo
komedije društvene pravde -
komedije društvene pravde -
07:12
sometimes it makes you want
to take a dump in your pants.
to take a dump in your pants.
180
420437
2714
ponekad poželite da se ispraznite u gaće.
07:15
Most of my work is meant to be fun.
181
423175
2847
Moj rad bi uglavnom
trebalo da bude smešan.
trebalo da bude smešan.
07:18
It's meant to generate
a connection and laughter.
a connection and laughter.
182
426046
3087
Trebalo bi da proizvede povezanost i smeh.
07:21
But yes, sometimes I get
run off the grounds by security.
run off the grounds by security.
183
429157
3332
Ali, da, ponekad me obezbeđenje
otera s poseda.
otera s poseda.
07:24
Sometimes I get mean tweets and hate mail.
184
432513
2967
Ponekad mi stižu
zlonamerni tvitovi i zajedljiva pošta.
zlonamerni tvitovi i zajedljiva pošta.
07:27
Sometimes I get voice mails saying
that if I continue telling my jokes,
that if I continue telling my jokes,
185
435504
4875
Ponekad dobijam glasovne poruke koje kažu
da ako nastavim da pričam svoje viceve,

07:32
they'll kill me
and they'll kill my family.
and they'll kill my family.
186
440403
3062
ubiće i mene i moju porodicu.
07:35
And those death threats
are definitely not funny.
are definitely not funny.
187
443489
3774
A te pretnje smrću,
definitivno nisu smešne.
definitivno nisu smešne.
07:39
But despite the occasional danger,
188
447287
2134
No uprkos povremenoj opasnosti,
07:41
I still think that social justice comedy
is one of our best weapons.
is one of our best weapons.
189
449445
3900
i dalje smatram da je komedija društvene
pravde među našim najboljim oružjima.
pravde među našim najboljim oružjima.
07:45
I mean, we've tried
a lot of approaches to social justice,
a lot of approaches to social justice,
190
453369
3055
Mislim, isprobali smo mnogo pristupa
društvenoj pravdi,
društvenoj pravdi,
07:48
like war and competitive ice dancing.
191
456448
2522
poput rata i takmičarskog plesa na ledu.
07:50
But still, a lot of things
are still kind of awful.
are still kind of awful.
192
458994
3850
Ali i dalje su mnoge stvari nekako užasne.
07:55
So I think it's time we try and tell
a really good poop joke.
a really good poop joke.
193
463265
3242
Te smatram da je vreme da pokušamo
da ispričamo zaista dobar vic o kaki.
