I'm Flemish, you know, like "In Bruges" 2. You bet your ass is an expression, both in Britain and America 3. The Academy isn't entirely American so Europeans actually do get a vote, so we certainly get a say 4. Do you have any idea how much of our money goes into the American film industry? You guys would be nowhere without us! 5. We really aren't all the same, that's as ridiculous as saying a Texan and a New Yorker are the same. Europe is a tapistry of cultures (seeing as we actually have a history of more than just a few centuries). You should try and visit sometimes! 6. You guys tanked the world economy, you idiot. Thanks for all the subprime loans! 7. I was right, wasn't I? This list was wrong from the first oscar, and only had 9 correct in total. My point exactly. What the fuck is your problem dude?

Are you a bloody dumb Brit who is talking out from his arse? It seems to me that you blokes have the BAFTA. Why mess with the American Oscars. You freaking Euros are all the same. It's no bloody wonder the world economy is in the toilet. What kind of sentiment is “you bet your ass”? Are you a bloody dumb Brit who is talking out from his arse?

Voting has only just been finished, counting is still underway. 2. The document that the original blogger that posted this list supposedly had, was signed by Sid Ganis, the president of the Academy. He however never knows the results before they are announced at the night itself, only two people do, and they are accountants. No such letter announcing the oscar winners is ever sent out to "the academy officers", which the document was addressed to. 3. There are some pretty much dead certs that this list has not winning, such as Adapted Screenplay for Slumdog Millionaire. So don't believe this, unless you wanna lose your office's oscar pool anyway! You can bet your ass off this list is fake.
