I'm tempted to watch the opening ceremony but i'm convinced with the amount of symbolism going on something shady is happening behind the scenes.

Just look at these damn mascots. Sinister looking 1 eyed creatures? This one eye symbolism is as old as it gets. Just look it up.

I feel for those ppl attending the ceremony. Its gonna be one to remember for sure..

Care to elaborate on what you think is going to happen?


Well from what i can tell the whole place is setup for some kind of ritual. I guess nothing noticeable will happen, there was just speculation that something might occur. Probably more likely for the closing.

Havent watched the ceremony yet. Saw the Mr Bean clip that was hilarious!

Anyone got a link or something where I can watch the whole thing? Was on like 5am here.

Man i wish some of these NBC channels would show something other than womens handball...

If they are forcing us to watch shit 9 hours behind at least show interesting stuff. I had no idea "handball" even existed till i saw this.

The last 100m by that 16 year old chinese swimmer was one of the most impressive things I have seen in sports period. If you only look at the times for the last 100m, Ryan Lochte's time is 58,65s, her's is 58,68. If you only look at the last 50m she was actually faster. (28,93 > 29,10) That's just unreal.

Maybe it's just me but I thought the Olympics were supposed to be about unity and the strength of nations cooperating. Instead you have Corporate sponsors and an IOC telling flower shops and bakeries to stop selling bagels and flower arrangements shaped as Olympic Rings...

Legally if the IOC doesn't enforce their trademark it can become generic and they will no longer be able to claim exclusive rights in it.

Still doesn't excuse their behavior though :\

Corporations pay a lot of fucking money for those rights, we have to stop them from making any money off of the Olympics if they don't pay up exorbitant amounts of money!

I was in London last month for some other reasons. And oh my god what a nightmare. The security check was over redundant, and there are surface to air missile launchers in every building, no kidding. Then there is that electric fence they installed.

I see the need to a more secure and terror-free event, but maybe there is a way to do it without obstructing on basic human freedom and the need for humane space. I don't know.
Ca va?
