Video shows a part of a bachelor party of some IRC-users. The last event of party was making a dinner, where the celebrity had to make dinner for the whole group using a trek stove. The party took place in Kaivopuisto, Helsinki. In the middle of cooking five teenage girls appeared from almost nowhere and took part in the party. Girls acted as stereotypic teenagers, though in a humorious way, when two DV-cams were recording at the same time. Girls also enlighted these old IRC-users what is IRC-galleria, why it is not the IRC and what is IRC. IRC is of cource ÄM-IRK (finnish pronunciation of mIRC). If that does not sound funny to you, you are not the target group of this video.
This video was not made for purpose, and those cameras and cameramen were mainly making a document of the bachelor party. Because the girls took part in the party, this video took its place almost by accident. Current scene was propably the best part of the party, and actually at first, there were suspisions that it was set up on purpose. Because video was so good and it contained many cliché of many funny things like chatting in IRC-Galleria imagining that it is IRC and teenage culture, it would have been sin to not publish this video.
