Bizarre
Spotted, on multiple billboards yesterday, while returning from Karlovy Vary to Prague by bus:
"Big Brother vidíte tě."
Literally, this means "Big Brother is watching you." It's an ad for the upcoming season of the Czech edition of "Big Brother." But these ads are a bit creepy, especially when you consider that they're in a country that endured one of the nastiest bouts of Stalinism in the entire Communist bloc in the late 1940s and early 1950s. I mean, if you're going to be so brazen, why not also include a huge-ass picture of Big Brother himself?

How does that saying go? Something like history the first time is tragedy, the second time is farce?
