Team Canada's hockey team will be staying in rooms like this.....lol

This is what happens when you scare all the gays away.

 

[Cardigan]

Have these journos ever left the States? Stray dogs and not flushing TP are common in Eastern Europe.

 

[GhostWriter24]

What a fucking joke.

 

[Jasup]

High cost quality accommodation!

 

[BertramCooper]

is actually Pyongyang

 

[Pastry]

Team Canada's hockey team will be staying in rooms like this.....lol

Uhhh serious? That looks terrible haha.

 

[spats]

I don't even want to think how bad it'll be for the paraolympics.

On the flip side, I've seen signs saying not to throw your TP in the trash in Finland.

Yeah, those are pretty common here near the border.

what is so bad about this?

Children's beds, ay?

 

[BigJonsson]

Wonder if Putin feels embarrassed

 

[Pastry]

Olympic villages are typically very nice. These are some of the best athletes in the world after all.

 

[andymcc]

what is so bad about this?

are you kidding

 

[BigJonsson]

what is so bad about this?

I dunno if those beds can hold 250 pound hockey players

 

[Ekdrm2d1]

lol

 

[SmithnCo]

Oh god, that yellow water.

 

[Azzurri]

Meanwhile, in Russia

To be fair, the stray dogs won't be a "problem" soon since they're going to kill them.

 

[K.Sabot]

The Olympic committee's gonna burn for this one.

 

[bigmf]

I'd risk the international incident and flush my T.P.

 

[BigJonsson]

To be fair, the stray dogs won't be a "problem" soon since they're going to kill them.

They should round up the dogs and let the athletes/tourists adopt them!

 

[DrFunk]

Canada's website brings the shade: Sochi facilities still a work in progress

 

[Hasphat'sAnts]

Can we discuss how insane it is that the Winter Olympics hosts roughly one fourth of the number of athletes and one third of the number events as the Summer Olympics, yet the Sochi games somehow cost about $7 billion more than the Beijing games?

Systemic corruption at every level of commerce and government?

At least in China you've got the deterrent of, "if I get caught they'll put a bullet in my head."

 

[Riggs]

what is so bad about this?

Don't trust this guy his profile says his interests only consist of the ORIGINAL BATTLEFIELD.

 

[cardinalmind]

Those beds might be destroyed once the shagging period of the athletes comes. I read news that they always outstrip the demand for condoms every olympics.

 

[krae_man]

LOL Our female players wouldn't even fit on them.

Imagine Chara trying to sleep on those.

 

[BertramCooper]

On the opposite end of the spectrum, every Qatar World Cup attendee gets their own slave!

 

[Large Professor]

Wonder if Putin feels embarrassed

I think he wonders where the 50 billions went.

 

[SteveWinwood]

Welcome to russia!

 

[Cardigan]

Can't tell if sarcasm, but my family adopted two Bulgarian street dogs and they were great dogs. I miss them

 

[Sendou]

It's pretty sad to think that largely Sochi was supposed to show that Russia is still a world super power and what they're cabable of but now everyone is just laughing at them.

 

[massoluk]

Team Canada's hockey team will be staying in rooms like this.....lol

Can't be so accommodating for the usual Olympic sex orgy.

 

[Hasphat'sAnts]

There's actually very little chance of Nepal qualifying for the World Cup. Sorry to disappoint.

 

[Patryn]

Can we discuss how insane it is that the Winter Olympics hosts roughly one fourth of the number of athletes and one third of the number events as the Summer Olympics, yet the Sochi games somehow cost about $7 billion more than the Beijing games?

How about the fact that Russia is spending more on a road connecting venues than Canada spent on the entirety of the Vancouver Winter Games?

i've been there plenty of times, have not been to a toilet where I couldn't flush TP. but I stayed in places that are at least approaching modernity.

 

[CorvoSol]

When I lived in Brazil the not flushing paper was common enough that one facility I went to had signs telling people specifically that they could flush their paper and to please do so because bins were not provided.

 

[BigJonsson]

Can't tell if sarcasm, but my family adopted two Bulgarian street dogs and they were great dogs. I miss them

Mostly serious, if the dogs are healthy I'm sure people would adopt them if they knew they'd be killed

 

[Shiina]

I think he wonders where the 50 billions went.

I'm sure he knows his own pockets very well.

 

[Incognito]

I think he wonders where the 50 billions went.

He doesn't have to look far!

 

[Trouble]

:lol @ Dangerous face water

 

[Alx]

I've never encountered this in more than 20 years of travels through Spain, France, Germany, Italy, etc

Yeah, that's definitely not something you would find in western Europe. It's more a central/eastern Europe thing, and only with older buildings (there are new norms for pipe sizes now, that are the same for almost every European country).

Those beds might be destroyed once the shagging period of the athletes comes. I read news that they always outstrip the demand for condoms every olympics.

That's logical when you think about it... when you round up thousands of young, fit athletes in the same place, what would you expect to happen ?

 

[kick51]

animated gifs of the first victim of dangerous face water have surfaced on the net:

Depends on whether they use enough sunscreen when chilling on a beach in Bali with all the money they embezzeled.

 

[Mattlikewhoa]

$51 Billion, and this is what you get!?

Oh man, this is going to be quite the expensive trainwreck.

There are toilets like this:

That's gonna be one awkward shit...

Trashcan not even centered, Russia can't do shit right. No pun.

Weird thing is, you can see the line in the wall where the stall divider was.

Maybe they took it down after realising the doors won't fit?

 

[Enduin]

There are toilets like this:

Especially cause the TP is only on one side.

 

[Rad-]

lol.l It has a divider though!
