this is the thread where u can bare all, you can slag off the opening ceremony, post pics of russian gymnasts, wank over the pictures of the russian gymnasts, moan that boards of canada wasn't used in the musical montage, wait for staz to ignore anything he said or any link he posted, completely ignore freqy, joke about illfates heroin addiction, bag jivverdikker as if you know him, and beg phobiazero to come out of his fucking swedish gayboy criogenic capsule so everything will be ok.

i thought the opening ceremony was bizarre where bizarre shouldn't be,
my dad hates the olympics, and some older dude i talk to does, and i said, 'that was bizarre' to both and they were like 'nah, don't be a critic', what??
safe to say i'm not watching any of the sports but i hear the beach volleyball draws quite a crowd.
aaaand... they faded the 'pretty vaCUNT' bit of the sex pistols, all u need to know really.

Oh no. Pleason not a fuckload of drummers. They never take the advantage of being in high numbers. it's always so heavy.
I enjoyed bits of the opening ceremony.

I really enjoyed the opening ceremony, it made me glad to be alive here and now.
I enjoyed the sport and the BBCs coverage (though they could've been a bit less "Team GB" and gold medal obsessed centric).
But what the fuck was that travesty of a closing ceremony. It made me ashamed to be alive here and now.

the closing ceremony was so boring i only watched 2 minutes,
but i was wondering if there was some electronic music, as they were apparently doing a view on uk's music history and they have some of the greatest electronic talents...
i guess they didnt add any...

I found the ending ceremony an extremely surreal Collage of random promotions advertising British products, a sick arena of desperate corporate wankery. I was hoping that a huge alien reptile would fall out of the sky and start crushing the athletes and eat the gold medals, it would test their might, as they would have to work together to fight it to the death, and this would truly prove their strength to the world. The only thing is I would feel sorry for the tiny Japanese gymnasts.

I enjoyed the men's MTB, a really dramatic finish to it. The course looked quite good. I would have liked it to have had a few really merciless ascents on it that reduced them to push and carry, but that's rare at international level for some reason.
The men's boxing final was a stark reminder of how the Olympics used to be: Amateurs competing to be the best in the world, rather than paid professionals. It showed. Whilst I like the sentiment, I wasn't sure if it was a good thing for the spectators; it was poor to watch compared to pro boxing.
