Didn't see a single minute of it and couldn't tell you anything that happened outside of the Olympics thread on here where nobby complained about horse dancing. Actually, I tell a lie, someone showed me a vid of some top diver going in face first off a board. |

Some bloke shat his pants during the road walk and put sponges down his shorts to mop up the sticky brown mess.  Everyone who won in London also won in Rio. Nobody turned up to watch. |

I think the walking events are right up there with horse dancing and synchronised swimming.....a complete friggin waste of time. Why don't they include walking backwards as an event? or what about sideways skipping? FFS, Tug-O-War is more of a sport than any of these! |

How to you shoot someone with blood? No no no, you misunderstand, Nobby. I meant that the monsters had acid instead of blood. I suppose you found the shooting quite tame, having spent a fair proportion of your life, shooting real people. |

Obviously, that was no good when on land, but then I became a Ninja Chinese Wrist Burn Specialist. Monsters with acid. You're making it up. What next, monsters that lay their eggs inside you then when they grow they burst out of your stomach? Pleeeeze. |

Seriously Hugo, I've got to correct you here as I don't want people getting the wrong impression about me. I don't work for a bank. I work for a Stock Exchange. We make Stocks, y'know, them wooden things where you get people to put their heads and arms in, and then you throw rotten fruit & veg at them. Sometimes we sell them and sometimes we swap them with other Stock Exchanges..........or at least that's what I think we do. |

Isn't that where they send the really evil bankers? like the bankers that even the bankers don't like? |

I seem to the the only one here who enjoyed the Olympics, well, the medal count anyway. We had as many golds as France and Germany combined.
Did anyone see the international reaction to our success? Apparently the Aussies say we bought the medals, France accused us of bulking up and taking away the purity of cycling and the Russians suggest we hold all the main positions in WADA, IAAF, etc so can train unmolested by drug tests.

I actually ennoyed it once it got underway. It's not very often I get the bragging rights in work.

Isn't that where they send the really evil bankers? like the bankers that even the bankers don't like? How about a senior banker, say someone who was once the head of investment banking for a very large firm who was to resign that position suddenly when people who reported to him were banged up for fixing the Libor rates. The Serious Fraud Squad investigated him but nothing came of it. After two years of keeping his head down he reappears as the CEO of a major Stock Exchange........is that what you mean, a fictitional scenario that I'm sure will never happen. |
