Gawker
In the middle of a political riot in Belgrade, two young Serbian women went looting, looking just like a couple of Mardi Gras sorority girls except for all the stealing of food, shoes and coats from stores. It's so much more aggravating to see them carting off all this stuff than just some regular poor, acting like they're on a perfectly acceptable shopping spree. As alarms go off, the girls (the one in the sweatsuit shows off her tramp stamp!) stuff clothing into their stolen Adidas bags and yell at the cameraman to stop shooting. Watch it and let the hate seethe in you.
The video got over a quarter of a million views since it went up yesterday. The creator says, "I want to say that these persons are just extremes and that they don't represent Serbs as a nation." Which is true! Some of them merely moon CNN.

You got Serbed.
Are we sure this isn't part of the new TaTu movie? They ARE nihilists after all.
hopefully, one of the stolen items is a thighmaster.
Adidas bags? No Prada? They are poor, I feel sorry for them.
To me they represent Serbs not as a nation, but as a looty, rioty, place of magic and laughter.
The Bush Administration is considering using this as a training video for the use of 2008 tax rebate checks.
Serbs are so hot: swarthy Turk + stony Slav. A Muslim and a Christian trapped in the same skin—so much pent-up rage in need of ... release. Since the fall of communism, studding services are in increasing demand all over Europe. Get yours now while the exchange rate is still favorable, I say.
This would never have happened in Slovenia, Croatia, Montenegro, Bosnia, Herzegovina, or Kosovo.
...and just HOW did the CNN cameraman get his camera? Uh-huh?
@Sarcastro: I love you.
It's like New Orleans all over again.
Riot Grrrls*
People! Have you never been to a Filene's Basement sale? You could get cut over a designer discount.
What the creator meant to say is that these people were "EXXXXXTREEEEEME!!!"
@Sarcastro: You Croat me up.
@collegecallgirl: The love, it is returned.
@In Other News...: I'm glad you Kosovar amused.
Who's side are we on again -- MasterCard or Visa?
@Sarcastro: I'm jus' Slovene all these puns!
@Colonel Mustard: Czech yo'self befo' you wreck yo'self.
@Sarcastro: @Colonel Mustard: Why don't we go to the Balkans so I can Bosnia the Herzegovina out of you?
@In Other News...: Only if I can Split your Dalmatian Coast.
Because nothing says 'time to shop' like a metal trashcan through a plate glass window.
I remember when Serbs used to assassinate archdukes and start world wars. Now they're reduced to looting embassy gift shops. The indignity alone is reason to loot a FootLocker.
@Sarcastro: Is that from Jam Macedonia?
@larrydarrell: Yeah, that one chick's got dumps like a truck, huh?
They'll certainly be the Belgrade of the Ball with all of that new swag.
Like B&T bitches on the "public" opening of Seventh on Sale.
I didn't know that The Simple Life was filming in Belgrade.
@Clarence Rosario: Bingo!
We're so next on the list for this...
When is Nikolai going to weigh in on all of this? Perhaps he can go over there and soothe it all over.
I thought it would be longer. This is '4 Months, 3 Weeks, 2 Days," isn't it?
I'm just glad no one referenced Montenegro.
@YourDoctrinaire: Perhaps you can go u picku materinu. His name is Nikola.
I'm feeling Novi Sad about the direction this is taking.
@rosaluxembourgeoise: That was fucking brilliant.
Who gives a shit what happens in Suburbia?
@The Home of the Vain: Ljubim te. Heh. Sometimes merely grammatical is brilliant.
Ever wonder what happened to all those women in those Bang Bus videos?
Now you know.
Any time there's looting, the racist Balkan media always manages to find the blondes with the darkest roots. While natural blondes "find" stuff, the peroxide blondes "loot."
"Looting Serbian Riot Girls" has got to be the name of a band.
