No, not interested
No, but will watch the anal swabbing of the athletes before they compete
Yes, can't wait
Yes, but only to watch the trannies crush the women folk in their events

I like watching Curling. It's different from most other Olympic sports.

I got hooked into curling a couple Olympics ago. More to it than I thought. But my poll vote here was a solid NO for watching any of it this go 'round.

Yet you complain about football players taking a knee.

Your politics is getting in the way of your God-given right to dig sports.

Have you seen the Japanese performers in the Half Pipe? I don't think Shaun White will even make it to the podium. He fell on his first run but made a come back ( in the prelims ) like he did 4 years ago moving from 2nd to 1st on his last run. He has made the finals but from what I saw, he will not beat all 3 Japanese competitors but I hope he does.

I usually make an effort to watch them but haven't this time.
And i've missed some stuff. As noted the 14 yo who was first woman to hit the quad spin. And some event where the Russians supposedly won gold but a drug test has stopped the presenting of medals.

I'm sure there is going to be more good moments.

And the picture of that ski jump, pathetic. Got all those USD building where they want. They could probably pull this off with all that cash in the middle of the Gobi.

China Claims Uyghur Concentration Camp Region Is ‘Disney-Like Resort

According to the Chinese, their winter paradise in East Turkistan, officially known as Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Province (XUAR), or Xinjiang for short and slave labor concentration camp by the locals is something of a Disney Land-like resort. From the sounds of it, it's free to enter, but very costly to leave, but that's somewhat typical of Communism like in Komifornia, NY or NJ with their exit taxes.

But the good news is it's also a freaking Green New Deal paradise. Well... not counting the armed guards, razor wire and general concentration camp vibe.

..In terms of economic development, Xinjiang’s boost of its ice and snow economy is a standard green economic development pattern to preserve local inherent ethnic cultural characteristics, and to promote green tourism without environmental pollution. By doing so, Xinjiang can improve the well-being of local people, achieve environmental protection and economic prosperity...

I'm thinking of taking the kiddies (YR, TP, PB and VM) there for vacation. Though I plan to just give them the equivalent of US$20 and send them in, while I go make a phone call or get me some bat's-ass soup or something.

Kiddies: Are we there yet?!?
Me: Soon, very soon. Here enjoy this free gift pipe from F Joe Biden.

Enjoy paradise on earth while you can.
