I think these Olympics will go down as my favorite Olympics ever and mostly because I view it as a 2 week long comedy routine and not so much an athletic event.

Well, everyone was warned about no expectations of privacy (incl in your hotel) before hand...





If you genuinely believe you're living a private life today, I've got some wonderful swamp land in Florida to sell you....



And besides...I'm a father...I *know* I have no privacy !!!!


Yeah,...but there's a lot of swamp land in Florida, so that doesn't make any sense. The reason beach front property in Arizona is funny, is because it's land locked.

edit on 7-2-2014 by JohnnySasaki because: (no reason given)




The point was why would someone possibly WANT to BUY swampland in florida......as in...DUH.....And if you're so dull of a tool as to believe you have a reasonable expectation of privacy anywhere or anytime in today's society, you might possibly also be interested in buying useless swampland in Florida...which I just so happen to have the deeds to....right.....here....


It's an old joke.

It's S A R C A S M.

I think you meant to say beachfront property in Arizona, in other words it doesn't exist.



Here's a thought....if you don't get the joke.....and aren't humble enough to say "hey, I didn't quite get that, what was the point to that joke? Would you mind explaining it to me?"....maybe....maybe.....making an assumption as to knowing what the person was REALLY trying to say isn't the best approach....unless, you're THE AMAZING KRESKIN and can...well...read minds......

TELL ME!!! WHAT AM I THINKING!!! ??? !!!! ???? !!!!! ?????

Why are we perplexed that the hotels & such aren't finished. The Olympic Governing Body knew about Sochi prior to giving them these olympics. If this was in a larger more modern city in Russia such as St,Petersburg or Moscow, we would'nt be having this discussuion. The American equivalent to this would be having the olympics in the third or fourth largest city in Arkansas. Simply not enough infrastructure to get the task done. NOT A KNOCK ON ARKANSAS just used it as example. The olympics are'nt what they used to be. We need to stop pro atheletes from participating in any olympic sport. Masturbation as an olympic sport...to bad I'm not 14 anymore, I may have won a gold medal, silver for damn sure!!!!


Lets not forget that we think of as being serious corruption in the US or the UK is actually very small potatoes compared to Russia at the moment. Vast sums of money have been siphoned off during the building work.

As funny as the rest of the stuff is, toilets that cannot handle TP are normal in many countries. I was in Taiwan last year and the hotel staff asked me not to flush it. I assume some fancy low-flow toilet. dunno lol

The foreign press in Russia (especially western press) are all spies.

Just ask Putin.

I'm surprised they weren't all offered better accommodations in Siberia.

Being a Siberian Prison chances are the plumbing works, you can flush the toilet with tp in it and it actually makes sense to have surveillance cameras present. Plus the facility is actually finished.

I don't think Russia wants to see the comparison and how their prison system is better than the locales in sochi.

What, because they dare to point out that the Emperor has threadbare clothes and very, very corrupt friends?

Disclaimer:
 Barry himself two days later wrote that this photo was taken not in Sochi. In addition, Barry said remarkable phrase: "The best part of each of the Olympics - the organizers of crap." links to evidencegossipsochi.ru...
