Arriving in a helicopter to a party with friends and 92,000 people willing to pay to see the show you have organized. Gerard Piqué, Ibai Llanos, Gerard Romero and the Kings League gang smile on your screen. The perfect combination of success, fun and business. “Piqué doesn’t cry, Piqué bills”. Stretched out on the sofa, watching Joan Laporta swelled up in the box, you look at the living room of your 55 m2 apartment and you are tempted to shout… “to the parrot, we are not so bad…”. Because, in reality, you are more like a character from full Pantomime. Convinced that eight hours in a plastic seat in a football stadium does not justify coming out from under the Ikea blanket.
Before Piqué conquered the Camp Nou again and took over the social networks on Sunday, the comedians Rober Bodegas and Alberto Casado were the ones who made 7-figure records on Twitter, unleashing in a minute and a half the existential crisis of an entire generation. With the video of Friday they touched bone. They didn’t just make you laugh. The list of offended in the networks was increasing while the debate jumped from Twitter to Tik Tok and even Linkedin.
A suburban neighborhood, a thirty-year-old in a tencel tracksuit (Alberto Casado), his disheveled partner (Carmen Romero)… It didn’t take more: life doesn’t have to be lived
Can less be more? There are reactions for all tastes: Those who laugh at themselves and their friends: “they are 90% of the people I know”, “I’m not like that… but I am”. Those who get depressed: “I don’t remember such a big downturn since the end of Twin Peaks”( @kurioso ). Those questioned: Turismo Santa Pola, which replicates with all its charms. The deep ones: “Stupid and tendentious, sold to the narrative and interests of the postmo”, “he is a psychic video-vampire.” Those who don’t stop laughing: “Rauw i Rosalia in a year.” And the conclusion: “The Pantomime bothers so much because (us) it portrays acid. The more it bothers you, the more it portrays you” (@luzsmellado). There is no indifference. With eight million views, Pantomime full serves an anthropological study on a platter.
