    It's battered and fried, then tossed in sauce.

    Retardedly expensive my country, even factoring in air fares, if I have a couple weeks off, I'll often spend less visiting some of our impoverished neighbours compared to if I stay in Sydney twiddle my thumbs then go blow money doing stupid stuff

    No not really

    <insert vague Gulliver's travels reference to avoid explaining why>

    Sydney is better in that regard for what I want

    But, shit , I digress, this is the Olympics thread

    Ah well it is a stereotype that many middle aged (or older) white guys that actually just go there for their holidays made true :p

    I posed this thought in the chat thread...but it is much more appropriate (well I don't know about appropriate really ;) ) here.... At least y'all might have some thoughts on it.

    When pole vaulting and (especially!) in swimming and diving (my GOODNESS the diving!)...it looks like the men's junk is about to fall out!!! goodnightalive! Then when they run, my bff and I have found it hard :D at times to watch what is happening for seeing all of that bouncing and moving around! It just seems like all of that movement would be distracting (since it is to us!)

    Anyway, I wonder why in the world they don't have special underwear cups or something to put that in! I bet that pole vaulter with the pole knocking penis wishes he could have stuffed his in some secure underwear of sorts.

    I read almost all of it when I made my comment.
    I figured I should reread it since you seem to think I missed something.
    Yup they admitted they wouldn't have won that many medals because they wouldn't have as many starting positions.
    My conclusion.

    That article isn't worth the pixels it's written on.

    USA boycotts the 1980 summer olympics because the Russians wouldn't withdraw from Afghanistan.
    Oh the fucking irony.

    What You Missed is the Fact That There Is no EU Team !
    And That UKip (the Party Behind Brexit ) said > Jane Collins, a Ukip MEP, said that the medal table was an attempt to claim credit for Britain's Olympic success.

    "Europe won the most medals With Team GBs Help !"
    My Comment Was Merely Sarcastic !

    USA Men’s basketball team wins Gold and beats Serbia 96-66 but the game wasn’t really even close
    they were up by nearly 50 points before they cruised to victory [​IMG]

    Didn't miss the fact that there was no EU team it was kind 1/3 of the reason that I thought it was wasted space.
    Taking credit for GB success? The EU would have still had more medals without them. Reason 2/3

    Gosh, GB is so obsessed with EU, and especially Germany.

    Yeah it's a little where the whole EU thing

    Several hundred years ago you brits were all running around killing them, taking all their stuff.

    Now just under half of you want to go around hugging them
