Yay Olympics!
[mood: lol] [listening to: Shiny Toy Guns]
Opening ceremony was awwwwweeesome.
Got a bit dull towards the end.
It was also kind of ridiculous how the Chinese singer was totally under-dressed to represent his entire country before the entire world. He work some grey pants and fucking black t-shirt. Just a plain black t-shirt. Maybe I could forgive him a little bit if it had a collar, but that was ridiculous.
Well either way, looks like China is in the spotlight. That opening ceremony truly was awesome. Best one evar? Possibly.
Anyone watch the March of Nations?
That was great.
Sucks that Taiwan was only repping with their Olympic flag :(
Also.
Best fail ever.
On international television.
China is the last one to walk.
Yao Ming leads his country with the Chinese flag in his hands. He waves with his hands the bright, blazing pride of the mainland Chinese people. A shining icon of his country. Beside him walks a 9 year old. Survivor of the devastating earthquakes that destroyed an elementary school. The boy has a great story. He managed to survive and escape from the rubble. After he reached safety, he went right back in and saved two more of his classmates. Why? Because he was the class leader. It was his duty. Another person the Chinese can proudly stand behind. He holds two flags in his hands. A small Chinese flag and Olympic flag. Just one thing.
About the Chinese flag.
What about it?
IT IS ATTACHED TO THE POLE UPSIDE DOWN.
O how I wish I had a picture.
Man.
Someone is going to be in trouuuuuuuuuuble.
I really want to hear the story behind that one.
Maybe the little boy is secretly a Chinese rebel and swapped the flag right before they went out. A declaration of war against the Chinese government broadcast throughout the entire world. It was his rebel faction giving Hu Jintao the finger in front of the world.
What an exciting story that would be.
Regardless of whatever.
Taiwan ftw.
