Beijing Olympics Thread - Part II

[Lancemc]

Chinese women and American women close towards the end.....Chinese women finish strong, American women do not, Chinese take gold, Americans take silver, GAF sits up all night, drinking, smoking and staring into space, muttering "why" every 6 minutes or so.

Damn. My heart is still recovering from the American men's pommel horse events. God damn that was intense.

 

[No spoken words]

It's the all-around.

Oops, sorry!

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

The women's individual all-around final things are tomorrow, and the men's are tonight.

I know that our American girls should do pretty well tomorrow, but I'm afraid that our men might not get it done tonight.

That Horton guy was hella impressive, though.

 

[sulawesigirl4]

That was a tnemilpmoc.

clearly, i have been away too long. is that what the kids are calling it these days?

Backwards compliment. I spelled compliment backwards. See what I did!?!??!

It's funny because that's how it happened.

 

[corianderstem]

Is that what the kids are calling it these days, instead of backhanded compliment?

Did he hear a who?

 

[Utoo]

I see your edit, Utoo.

That's why I specified "gal pal," to avoid the inevitable sex jokes.

Avoid?? Haha, good luck!

You forgot the moaning, crying, and praying.

 

[corianderstem]

Like I'm getting any from anybody.

 

[WildHoneyAlways]

What? Teaching? It's summer.

I know. It's cruel.

Tomorrow is my first day back with kids. Bad kids. And some honors kids who think they are smarter than they really are.

How dare they interrupt my Olympic viewing???

 

[corianderstem]

You forgot the moaning, crying, and praying.

And stomping around in a snit?

 

[No spoken words]

Avoid?? Haha, good luck!

And I was not even right....correct gender, but, as Anitram pointed out, it's the all-around. I.....I am nothing.

 

[Lancemc]

You forgot the moaning, crying, and praying.

Sounds like Sushi night.

 

[corianderstem]

You all are sick, sick folk.

 

[coolian2]

You forgot the moaning, crying, and praying.

Hey, woah. We don't want to hear about the dreams you had when you eventually fell asleep.

 

[sulawesigirl4]

Backwards compliment. I spelled compliment backwards. See what I did!?!??!

oh lord.

Agree that Horton is one to watch. He was really hitting his routines the other night.

 

[coolian2]

You all are sick, sick folk.

You say this like it's a sudden realisation.

Little freaking bastard kids. If the honors kids get too smarmy, do you sic the bad kids on them and sort of leave the room for 5 minutes?

Gymnastics.

 

[Lancemc]

Damn Aussies and their long coastlines.

 

[corianderstem]

No one ever accused me of being quick on the draw, my friend.

 

[No spoken words]

Damn Aussies and their long coastlines.

They're just lucky.

 

[bono_212]

Gymnastics.

[bono_212]

It's a big country, kinda hard to miss, I'd be surprised if I were to suddenly come up on it.
