Project X Factor

Last week, a Dutch Facebook event got completely out of hand. A girl forgot to mark her "Sweet Sixteen" birthday party as private, which resulted in 25.000 people accepting the invitation, and a few thousand showing up on Friday night in the girl's village for a night of rioting. Some pranksters renamed the party "Project X" (after a cheesy American highschool film with a very similar plot).

So that's the subject of the cartoon: two tough guys auditioning for the talent show "Project X Factor".

De jeugd heeft de toekomst

Two days to go before the elections. Last week, a very special debate took place: five political leaders made their appearance in the Children's News. It involved a balloon inflating competition and a quiz with little party hats.
For Dutch speakers: here's your reference.

Tell me lies

Less than two weeks to go until the elections, so we get swamped in debates between the leaders of various political parties. The hosts of tv show Knevel en Van den Brink tried withholding the candidates from accusing each other of telling lies. With very little effect.
