What have I been doing for the past week? Oh, watching the Olympics maybe. I've also been working on a super-secret non-cosplay mission, but I can't tell you about that. Loose lips sink ships and all that jazz.
Anywho, with the Olympics coming towards the end, I figured I'd better comment before I miss my chance and have to wait another four years. (Disclaimer: These are my opinions, don't blame anyone else for them.)
Cycling: Did not have enough crashes to suit me. Would've been better if attack pandas had been lined up along the route to ambush the bikers.
Women's gymnastics: Guaranteed to make you a pedophile in ten minutes or less.
Men's gymnastics: Guaranteed to make you gay in ten minutes or less.
Track & Field: Made me discover I'm a little racist. :[
Water polo: I hated Blitzball then, I still hate it now.
Swimming: Made me proud to be an American, and sick of Michael Phelps, but strangely a fan of his mom.
Rowing/Skulling: Could've used more naval warfare. Rowing demolition derby, yeah!
Synchronized Diving: Team falling, seriously?
Synhronized Swimming: I don't know what was creepier, the spastic Cathy's-House choreography, or the drag queenwar paint make-up.
Volleyball: Delicious.
Archery, Badminton, Baseball, Basketball, Beach Volleyball, Boxing, Canoe/Kayak, Cycling, Diving, Equestrian, Fencing, Field Hockey, Handball, Judo, Modern Pentathalon, Rhythmic Gymnastics, Sailing, Shooting, Soccer, Softball, Table Tennis, Taekwondo, Tennis, Trampoline, Triathlon, Weightlifting, Wrestling: Apparently NBC doesn't think I'd be interested in these events. Well, I'm sure they know best.
OVERALL: The Olympics should conducted classically. In other words, the athletes only wear loin clothes and oil. Mm-hmm, yeah. Then the viewers at home could participate in their own "events".
Yeah, I know you were thinking it too!
