As advice: I'd say that nothing spoiler like in Twitter since it is difficult to filter.

No ... MUST I RESORT TO SMILEYS?

It was snark. I think a separate Opening Ceremony thread is overkill, but it's no big deal. I was making a comparison to multiple outlets on the internet for our thoughts.

nevermind.

Yes, I know your twitter comment was snark. My avoid twitter spoilers was not, it seems to be going around today with people getting spoiled about things via twitter text messages.

[And I'm pretty sure CP's post was snarking back at you. But maybe I'm wrong.]

Umm back on topic:

I can't decide whether I like him better with his hair wet or dry.

innerSpaceman · 08-08-2008, 02:36 PM

Wet definitely.

(or, wait, is that what he makes me?)

In Canada they got to see the Ceremonies live and someone recorded it for Youtube. I am sure it has been taken down already but since I will not be home to see it when it is shown here for giggles and grins I wanted to see the torch being lit.

Oh My Freakin' Gosh! I won't spoil it for anyone else. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!

I started the thread so that people who only watch the opening and closing ceremonies can find dicussion about those ceremonies without wading through the rest of the Olympic guff in a (soon to be) very long thread.

also, I wanted to piss you off that we got to see it before you. So there. Neener.

ooooh, you did that alright. Ugh, 17 hour head start. NOT FAIR!!!

The "Moveable Type" segment of the opening was just Gobsmacking.

We had our chins sitting in our lap the whole time !!! (no, not each other's lap...)
