This can be an "all things Olympics" thread. Feel free to post about anything involving the games.
I'm interested to know a few specific things, personally:
1) From our English members, what are some of the weird/strange things tourists say or do during this overabundance of people from all areas? I'm sure it has to be chaotic and quite comical.
2) What are you interested in or excited about watching?
3) Are any of you going to attend? Tell us your stories!
and this:
wtf
What in the hell is that? It looks like a baby with boobs. I guess I'm about to see it for myself. I'm on the west coast in the US at the moment, so the opening ceremonies are just starting for us.
There's more than one sport worth watching?
Not with pants like that, there's not. All my attention is drawn to those pants.

It sure is overwhelming. I'd agree with that much. There are a select few things that I'd really like to see. I was interested in seeing the opening ceremonies, but they haven't really impressed me as much as I thought they would. I didn't really care for the literature or information age skits. They were just too long, and I lost interest. Interestingly enough, they chose to honor JK Rowling as a great British author, but not J.R.R Tolkien. I did love the Chariots of Fire bit with Rowan Atkinson though.
All the stuff I want to see they don't show on TV 
I like the olympics because it throws the UK into a hefty debt, allows them to move in the military, mount missile launchers on private homes, arrest people who committed thoughtcrime and sweep the streets clean of homeless and hookers. Finally the UK authorities can be the dicks they always wanted to be.
