They both really needed to shut the hell up. And the whole US Olympic "uniform" or whatever it was they were wearing was ugly. Those short sleeved jackets are the strangest things I've ever seen. I think the Americans should all wear jeans and cowboy hats. Yeah.

In the homage to the greek notion of love, the man was wearing jeans and a wife beater, which I thought was odd.

Also odd was the fact that the love homage featured a man and a woman, rather than a man and a little boy.

It's like when members of the some muckity muck defense administration passed out berets similar to what the Green Berets had, to try to build morale. Except it made the Green Berets pissed off.

It was the Black Beret of the Rangers which got passed out to every remf in Army. The Rangers promptly changed theirs to Tan.

Rangers should have just changed theirs to human scalps.

Somali scalps

He also got in a good one when the team from Sudan entered and Katie Couric was trying not to use the word genocide. Something along the lines of "I think we can already call it a genocide." Shorter silence though.

All hail Bob Costas. The guy's got bigger stones than Brokaw and Jennings put together.

I think the beret thing stems from the twenty-six seconds of "OMG I HAVE TO HAVE CANADIAN OLYMPIC GEAR" insanity at the Salt Lake games.

They had berets.

My sister has one of those berets.

calience August 15 2004, 01:05:12 UTC

Dare we ask what she had to do to obtain that beret? :P

paperstar19 August 15 2004, 01:18:39 UTC

She got it as a gift from Canadian relatives. I don't know what you would do with a Canadian beret in the U.S., though. I don't know if she's ever worn it.

You mean not all Americans preferentially wear dodgy berets with the peak backwards?

I feel so lied to. *cries*

phanatic August 14 2004, 01:21:45 UTC

We each probably have misconceptions about the other's native land.

But the sheepfucking thing's true, right?

Nah, the bad case of ovine lovin' is New Zealand, mate... :)

I'm sure the French would help assuage you.
