I think tetris will come right before the torch. It'll fit good that way.

Olympics village is basically the same as a frat house. It's not like something unheard of that never happens anywhere else but one difference is everyone is in really good shape physically.

It must be awkward for the curlers.

Although the brushing game has been becoming more important lately, so curlers are getting pretty fit. The Canadian men's team especially.

Need for Speed am cry.

Hard that. But he plays NFS professionally? Didn't know that was a thing.

 

[Fritz]

I love that Russia is so fit in these classic arts.

 

[maniac-kun]

Wait a professionel need for speed cyber athlete? The hell is going on?

 

[MBR]

Commentators say a "cyber gamer" is one of the guys carrying the olympic flag. That... That can't be right, can it? I... no, please no.

So, are they sports or art?

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

The curling folk don't seem that fit, nor in their twenties as someone else mentioned, but other than that, true

That's what I'm saying though. Most people at frat parties are pretty good looking and fit. Depends on the frat obviously but if it has like a lot of student athletes etc. Obviously not every single person is 20 years old and super fit which is true of the olympics since not every sport is super physical, like curling.

Dutch commentator had issues explaining why that one guy was carrying the flag. "Yeah this guy, eh.. He's good at driving cars in cyberspace, I guess".

 

[Jamie OD]

Yeah, who was that guy? All the Dutch commentator said was something like "he drives cars in cyberspace", which is a hilarious note on the commentator's age but not very informative.

I was kind of digging most of what happened after the athletes walked In because of all the classical shit. Web need moar games with classical art in it. Go for it, russian studios.

Speaking of which, just imagine the shit North Korea is going to pull in the run-up to the Pyeongchang games.

Not that they'll follow through on any of it, but no doubt Lil' Kim is going to make a scene.
