That round of applause was very appropriate.

 

[Setsuna]

whats' going to happen to all this crap after the olympics.

 

[Miles X]

DUURRRRRRRRRRR

I'm sick of people painting me as Anti-British, just because I liked this Rio presentation doesn't mean I hated the rest of the show.

You're kidding right? You're the most anti British person on gaf.

 

[Fry]

He'd sniff all the white out of Argentina's flag.

:lol :lol

 

[BrokenSymmetry]

Gosh. We *do* love our volunteers.

I found them a bit pushy myself, always trying to help.

 

[Newline]

I think the parks architecture and staging + London town as a whole saved these games for me. It really has been beautiful, especially the stadium lighting + pixels (even more so when I saw it in person)

 

[zomgbbqftw]

Don't be too harsh on Brazil, our handover ceremony in Beijing was pretty laughable and it bore no resemblance to the opening ceremony which was awesome.

I expect naked ladies in 2016 though Brazil...

 

[painey]

Coe sounds like he's giving a first day speech in CMST101 class

 

[Hot Coldman]

That's the opening. All closing ceremonies are shite.

Oh

Phew, that's a relief

 

[Mr. F]

whats' going to happen to all this crap after the olympics.

Greece still trying to answer that question.

 

[Kurtofan]

No, to be fair, you've been pretty anti-British for the whole thing.

I mean it's okay not to like the UK but at least come clean about it.

Nope, that's not true.

Just because I don't congratulate the UK at every turn and because I make a few jokes doesn't mean I hate the UK.


I don't like monarchy, the tories and plenty of stuff about the UK, but I have nothing against the UK.

 

[Nolan.]

They're all drunk.

They don't care.

I wonder what the Irish athletes are doing now

 

[Megasoum]

People keep talking about the "amazing" Beejing ceremony but all I can remember from those were the fake pre-rendered CG fireworks...

 

[twobear]

You're kidding right? You're the most anti British person on gaf.

I dunno man, there's Korey.

 

[Fergie]

ITT: I learn this last crop of Juniors was bad.

I fully agree.

 

[Strawman]

Beat me to it!

Steve Ovett for life yo

 

[Brazil]

Coma, probably, hahaha.

 

[Willkiller]

DUURRRRRRRRRRR

I'm sick of people painting me as Anti-British, just because I liked this Rio presentation doesn't mean I hated the rest of the show.

Oh C'mon. Tell us how you really feel.

 

[ComputerMKII]

I think there is a potential market for fake Olympics opening ceremonies in every big city. No need for competitions, just make more of those cool 3-hour mega-shows.

 

[Magnus]

Are all opening/closing ceremonies archived online somewhere in their entirety?

 

[SteveWD40]

I dunno man, there's Korey.

Was, but I put paid to that

 

[KillGore]

those testicled microphones

 

[Kurtofan]

You're kidding right? You're the most anti British person on gaf.

then why am studying english culture?

 

[Miles X]

I dunno man, there's Korey.

True, least he was banned though. Not sure how Kurt got away with his blatant trolling of the UK.

 

[Cerebral Assassin]

DUURRRRRRRRRRR

I'm sick of people painting me as Anti-British, just because I liked this Rio presentation doesn't mean I hated the rest of the show.

The French being the butt of English jokes is an age old tradition, no need to get so upset.

Maradona would get booed if he was there. Is he in the background?

Only by small minded fools (he is the greatest football layer of all time, after all).

 

[Subliminal]

whats' going to happen to all this crap after the olympics.

Well, The Olympic village is becoming an uh.. actual village all the buildings will be used by the public, No one wants the stadium though

The monarchy, or the tories, or the food, or the people, or the country, or its history.

But aside from that, you have nothing against the UK.

 

[Jezbollah]

Beijing opening ceremony was incredible. I don't remember anything from the closing ceremony though.

Sure the Beijing ceremonies were great. I guess that's a result of facing 20 years hard labour if you cocked up.

 

[Chinner]

then why am studying english culture?

why does the terminator have detailed schematics on human biology? to make it a more effective killing machine.

 

[Setsuna]

ITT: I learn this last crop of Juniors was bad.

Im sorry.

 

[Linius]

I love it how you guys pronounce Rogge.

 

[Newline]

I met this dude, really nice guy.

 

[Kurtofan]

Sports Rivalry is not hatred.

Nope, that's not true.

You've also jumped at every opportunity to point out non-existant scandal/corruption/GB-bias.

You've backed yourself into that corner dude.

That, drums and very young girl miming.

Isn't that the guy from 24?

Helicopter? Here comes Bond!

Man, that was so long ago, but it feels like yesterday.

 

[Willkiller]

To find out exactly why you hate us?

 

[flippedb]

What's with the hate, Steve?

 

[Gomu Gomu]

People keep talking about the "amazing" Beejing ceremony but all I can remember from those were the fake pre-rendered CG fireworks...

Well, that's because you don't have a good memory.

Was technically amazing but thats what you get when you train thousands of slaves for 4 years. London beat it soundly for me. I am a brit tho

Tottenham wanted it but later pulled out.

West ham and Layton Orient want it now. It will also be the home of British Athletics and it will host the 2017 (IIRC) world athletics championships.

LLCE?

Jacque Rogge would be a great super villain.

The Queen IS Britain sir. You insult her majesty, you insult an entire people.
