The Olympics

The green pool thing was ridiculous. Basic maintenance.

Criminals assaulting tourists in Rio...

It could have been worse, imagine the Olympics being held in Chicago

9 people being killed in one day




or 50 people being being shot and three children killed on a single day



The Olympic committee should avoid such crime-ridden shitholes.

Luckily locals have found a solution to counter the problem, as shown in one of the videos:




If only the Olympic Committee had seen this sign, Chicago could have been hosting today

Almost all of this violence is criminal-on-criminal. (Either the kids were caught in the crossfire or they weren't really kids. A lot of gangbangers are under 18 and reported as children when they die in gang violence.)

So it's all OK

As the certain presidential candidate said:

And yet they're dumping in so much chlorine that the athletes are complaining.

Dumping too much chlorine is not going to do any good if the overall balance is shot. Also, an algae problem can develop much quicker than it is resolved.

Some Muslim athletes are refusing to play nice with Israeli athletes.

Disgraceful!

We just had a kayaker capsize from hitting submerged junk.

No, wrong again, the kayaker capsized because of wind. Why do you believe anything the media says?

So that’s your official verdict: No, a random kayaker did not hit a random sofa while practicing in the incredibly filthy Olympic lagoon. As of this writing, the lagoon remains incredibly filthy.

RIO DE JANEIRO — Four American swimmers, including the six-time gold medalist Ryan Lochte, were held up at gunpoint early Sunday morning, according to the United States Olympic Committee.

Surveilance camera footage of thge Olympic village shows Lochte and other athletes arriving in the village with their watches and wallets when going through security, in addition to arriving some 2 hours later than they had said:

So the story of being held at gun point and robbed is probably a lie.

Yet once again gullible people will believe anything the media says at face value, as long as it's negative enough.

What a find, I had never heard that version of that song, I only knew the version sung by Chico Buarque, the composer himself. Thank you very much.

These moves look kinda dull without movie pyrotechnics or fight scene hlllarity or pro wrestling stories.

THE PLOT THICKENS!

RIO DE JANEIRO — A Brazilian judge has ordered the seizure of the passports of U.S. Olympic swimmers Ryan Lochte and James Feigen after differences emerged in their accounts of an armed robbery they said they suffered last weekend.

So it appears more and more they were just drunk douchebags pulling a fratboy joke. Only they are in a foreign country making false claims.

Under Brazilian law, filing a false police report can lead to six months detention or a fine.

I believe falsely reporting a crime is itself a crime in most countries, am I wrong?
