I don't know how the IOC passed up the opportunity to put an Olympic village on the site of a former Soviet gulag.
If I were to switch sides on this, I'd say recycling those billion dollar facilities makes a lot more sense than building new ones.
Oh, I think the consistency with which Olympics are being awarded to dictators suggests very strongly there are kickbacks happening. I find it hard to believe the IOC independently decided Sochi was a great place for a world-class athletic event.
I’m the most sad about Agent Carter. I think the second season was a little rocky, but I would have liked to see a five-season arc ending with Peggy becoming director of the SSR. And damn it, I want to know who shot Jack!
What OldBeigeGuy said: The 2002 Salt Lake City bribery scandal; the London ticket sales scandal; the monster party for the IOC that won underprepared Nagano its bid; the decision to drop wrestling — a classical Olympic sport — instead of one of the sports favored by the IOC president.
FIFA vs. IOC naked mud wrestling match: The mud would get up and walk out of the ring.
Two-door hatchbacks weren’t “family cars” in the 1980s, movie product placement notwithstanding. But a hatchback would be a good car for a serious bicycling enthusiast like Calvin’s dad, and Volkswagen drivers tend to keep their cars forever, so it’s possible it was left over from his bachelor days. I’m going to say…
Also Sherlock!
Excuse me, I’m just having another WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE* moment.
SO fucking over them. I would be over the Olympics for the terrible quality of the last few broadcasts even if they hadn’t been plagued with human rights violations, corruption and cheating.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
TBH, I would MUCH rather see the Warriors against OKC. San Antonio is GS kryptonite.
Washington, D.C., is maybe the least stylish city I ever lived in. People dress expensively, but personality and flair is not something you want to display around the federal government.
Can we please stop calling everything between our belts and our knee socks a vagina? Guys seem to have no problem distinguishing their penises from every other body part; are we really this fucking clueless?
To be fair, I talk to myself all the time.
Dear Army, please for the love of god do not give Soldier of Steel a position where he has authority over women, black people...or really, anyone. Thank you, A Terrified America.
Because no one ever gave a clenched fist salute before Black Lives Matter and there is only one possible interpretation of a clenched fist salute and that is the one you are attributing to it.
Pro tip: If a voice is telling you to do something you feel 100 percent comfortable doing that also makes your life easier, it’s not likely to be God.
Doesn't reading a book take pretty much any experience up a notch to 11?
