I watched the opening ceremony of the olympics.

holy shit.

A thousand dancing indians?

A roundfaced live action astroboy lookalike twirling about on wires to joni mitchell?

A gaggle of coked out fiddle players and goth tap dancer?

A flannel wearing, shitty poetry spouting fatbody that looked like uncle buck's retarded little brother?

A medusa-fro'd banshee squealing opera?

A old codger babbling in french for ten minutes?

Olympic torches that look like joints rolled by blind amputees with parkinson's?

A grand finale that didn't work, then wasn't even the finale because gretzky had to go outside to light the REAL flame?

KD fucking lang?

No offense to any canadians here, but is everyone up there bloody gay?

The only things that made it bearable were the closeups of the hot women in the audience and nelly furtado's bodacious ass.

I watched because I thought they might mention Terry Fox.

Maybe they did, but I missed it switching to other channels to preserve my sanity.

That whole show was CHARLIE FOXTROT.

(That stands for canada fails)

I have relearned why I always just catch the highlights on youtube.

They want to promote peace, love and sportsmanship, but hearing that much joni mitchell just makes me want to kill something. ugh. never again.




RIP Nodar Kumaritashvili

Terry Foxs mom carried out the Olympic flag.

canada is gay. plain and simple. I think of it like california. I love the landscape of most of it, but the politics are fucked up, and a lot of the people are.

I love the olmypics though, very cool to watch the best from around the world compete. pretty amazing to watch.

They should move women's beach volleyball (still in bikinis, mind you) to the winter olympics. I'd watch.

Ditto.

I would watch the olympics if they actually show athletic events. I don't care about the athlete's drama, the pretty countryside and all the baggage footage that takes up time that events could be shown.

Back in the 70's, 80's when there was the USSR evil empire, I watched every minute. Now I just have no interest.
I'd say our northern naughbors were more metro-sexual.

My wife watches all of it. I have a hard time convincing her that I really don't care.

"No, thanks. I don't really want to watch it."

"NO, I'm NOT kidding!"

The only things to come out of Canada that I've really enjoyed have been Crown Royal and Red Green.

Oh, HECK YA!

Same thing here. I remember the '76 Olympics very well. Now THOSE were some sporting contests!

This.
I never liked the opening ceremony, but I used to at least like watching the hot ice skater chicks in their skimpy little skirts. When they started explaining how she was a person with a past and family, I stopped caring.

[ROFL1] 5 minutes later and I'm still laughing at that! That gets bonus points for funny!

And that she is 12 years old. Is that a sport? Think not

That's gymnastics. Creepiest "sport" on the planet.
