Was thinking, Who thought that looked good when looking at the Germans, until it clicked after seeing your post

This is boring. always been.
What's with the ugly silver sixpences?
hmmm seats that light up.... where'd they get that idea from?
this is awfully dull. they should have had some homosexuals to help make it a bit more flamboyant.
I was wondering where all these athletes were going because usually they head into the middle of the arena when they come in. Turns out the Russians are filling the empty seats in the stadium with athletes. lol, classic Russia.
Those marshmallow costumes look damn comfortable.
Attempted plane hijacking? Jesus can you imagine.
That bear is meant to be a polar bear. Polar bears are white
This bit is fairly cool with all the lights and blow up things forming some sort of fish
This Lyubov girl thinks she's the shit.
I do always have to laugh how they always seem to center these things around some kid
That sea was cool.
Excellent prancing on show.
How do they actually do that sort of stuff. Is it basically big projectors?
That would be my guess, but I don't really have a clue.
Woo, we're getting to the good bits in Russian history,
Needs more red.
Big up JA
Cool Runnings 2
Supposedly the guy was drunk so they're not sure how serious it was.
This is the most Russian thing I've ever seen. Putin dancing ballet with a bear in a giant nuclear submarine while reading Marx and putting gays in prison is not nearly as Russian as this.
Putin and his Granny blanket 
Our games will be COOL!
When is the snowboarding on? Particularly the one where it is 4 racing each other at the same time. Only thing i'm interested in tbh.
"Our gayms will be cool! With new modern gaynius!"
I'm sensing some subliminal messaging from the speech dude.

Does this IOC bloke know he's in Russia?
The jellyfish of peace.
I hope Arshavin lights the torch.
Interesting stuff about that Kabaeva woman.
BBC's coverage was very good again.

The lady who lit the torch was in the news a few months ago.

Rather apt that the Russian ringpiece remains firmly closed.
They looked FABULOUS!
Just got reminded why I don't particularly like sports with a panel handing out points. Max Parrot puts together a snowboard run that all of the pundits agreed would run the first place close and might win it, only for him to be way off in 5th place. So either those pundits (including a former professional snowboarder) are clueless or the jury is. Either way, it seems a little arbitrary to me.
Nah he was a little sketchy on a couple of landings and I wondered why the judges were so excited to be honest.
Sage deserved it for the fact that he didn't grab mute like everyone else did all the time.

Good start for Norway.
