1st time I've actually seen the beach volleyball ladies actually wearing clothing.

So you were watching women playing beach volleyball in the nude before?

I saw some of my FB "friends" posting about boycotting the Olympics due to the supposed diss of the last supper.

I mean really? Whatever committee was responsible for that piece means you won't watch the USA participate? Fuck off.

It WAS NOT the last supper.  It was Dionysius.  The Greek god of wine and fertility or celebration.  They were paying homage to the Greeks here but yeah, f the Olympics, lol!

Gorija playing the opener, being a metal band.... Awesome!

This was what they were interpreting.  A 17th century painting by Biljert.

Don't try to confuse people with the facts, their minds are already made up. The longer I am alive the more this seems to be true.

I am afraid we crossed that bridge a while back. Critical thinking is in critical condition for a big chunk of the world, it is sad and frustrating.

I will admit we are a knee jerk reactionary society now.  Everything is done in a split second of a tweet and having to break the story first.  I would not have thought this as mockery of Christianity though.  It had to go through dress rehearsals and committees.  You think they'd want to piss off that many people, lol?

Lets go to the review booth on this one …



The circle above her head has been used for centuries to show sainthood.  And the group of people involved have a long history of insulting Christianity.  

These are not dumb people.  So they bring a blue guy with his balls hanging out so they can claim it was something COMPLETELY different and your are an idiot if you think otherwise.  

Unity!

Just because someone tells a lie to cover their butt and it gets re-tweet doesn’t make it true.

Get over it, people.

Anyway....these women gymnasts look like super heroes flying around out there. Pretty incredible to watch.

Yeah, someone i know postedt hat on Facebook, WTF???

Speaking of volleyball, The women's match between USA and China was good. China went up 2-0, USA came back to win the next two sets and the last set China won by 2. could have gone either way.

I was amazed at how fast some of the mens volleyball players can serve the ball. Some of the serves II couldn't even see the ball

Wonder what the odds of Daft Punk coming out of retirement to perform at the closing ceremonies?

Johnny Abruzzo

The women's water polo uniforms are alright.
