I see Jedward are the torch bearers, I imagine 5 million Irish people do a face plant every time these nincompoops are chosen to represent their country.

Olympic Torch in Dublin

Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson -
Originally posted by Paddy View PostI do detest the Olympics though. If it was just down to sport, I would find no problem with that however, the Olympics are a commercial organisation and the sponsors are large corporations and the profits will go offshore. The Olympic infrastructure and security is provided at a loss to the taxpayers. Either it should be sport for the people or a fully commercial venture and not subsidised.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

Originally posted by Mich the Tester View PostWell personally I like watching the Olympics, for the sport. I'll watch some of the athletics and the track cycling and might stumble upon the ladies' beach volleyball by accident. But I've never been a fan of all the ceremony around sport and the Olympics torch stuff, opening and closing ceremonies and so on is imho seriously overblown. Just get on with the games and the races and stuff all the ceremonies.
Just crack on with the action and hope for some decent teds and nips.
