UNFORTUNATE FELLOWS.

Borat, the Khazakhstanian sensation, has run into some more trouble stemming from his new movie. Apparently the college kids who made absolute asses of themselves aren't pleased by their portrayal as huge asses in the movie. The three South Carolina frat guys acted in typical meathead fashion, making absurd statements about fucking bitches and having slaves. But now that they've realized they're not cool and that the whole nation is about to find out, they're pissed.

See the article here.

According to Yahoo, "The film 'made plaintiffs the object of ridicule, humiliation, mental anguish and emotional and physical distress, loss of reputation, goodwill and standing in the community,' the lawsuit said." The defendants, 20th Century Fox and a few other companies are claiming the lawsuit "has no merit." Which I normally would agree with. These guys are idiots, pure and simple.

However, on a legal basis I think these guys have a chance if they claim the following:

Because of the Borat movie, we will never get to have consentual sex with girls again in our lives.

As more and more people see the movie and discover what kind of jackasses these fellows are, the pool of women willing to have intercourse with them will dry up until they will actually have to travel to Khazakhstan to get sex. If I were a jury, I would award them the following damages:

We, the people of the jury, award each boy whatever costs are involved in a lifetime of using prostitutes.

Since that's what they'll have to do. Of course, there's always the chance that this 15 minutes of fame will propel them into a life formerly enjoyed only by ex-reality TV show stars; hosting events at bars, maintaining their ridiculous behavior and picking up drunk 18-year old girls who got in with fake id's and are about to pass out.
