Sochi Olympics is a clusterfuck so far

[Mr Bean]

So we are up to four nations sneaking in rainbow flag wearing outfits either full outfits, gloves, socks or scarves.

[Borgholio]

Our delegation is lead by openly gay athletes. I'd hardly call that sneaking.

[The Xeelee]

There has been an attempted (and thwarted) plane hijacking.

[Crown]

That swan lake thing was quite good I thought.

You mean Russians?

And yes, the ballet combined with opera was great.

[fgalkin]

Well, I'll be damned. The Sochi fireworks surpassed Beijing and might even match a Gazprom corporate New Year's party.

Have a very nice day.

Well, the Russian team did enter to that Tatu "lesbian" song.

Have a very nice day.

[Col. Crackpot]

I am profoundly disapointed by the lack of shirtless Vladiir Putin judo fighting bears armed with Kalashnikovs in the opening ceremony.

[Crossroads Inc.]

Ok so in the opening montage"inspirational thing" they did… Did anyone else catch the mention of "The Hedgehog in the mist" ?
Because I saw that, and it was awesome.

The dream sequence with that girl flying over the floating scenes of Russia was spectacular.

[Flagg]

I'm boycotting, but I did hear the Russians played We Are the Champions by Queen which is hilariously ironic. Until you realize that it's only ironic because of pure evil.

[Thanas]

I am going to lock this and refer people to the general thread.

[Crown]

Could I request a merge and move of the thread*? Seems like it will kill the conversation otherwise.

EDIT :: I mean moving this thread to OT and merging it with the other, English fail.

[Thanas]

Maybe after I have more time, just moving and merging would change the title of the thread plus we then get all that discussion about the images and so which IMO just kills the thread. So I would need to split specific single posts, then merge those, then change the title etc.
