For all the Vancouverites, 2010 Olympic fans and 2010 Olympic Mascot fans:

A little bit of funny, Vancouver-style. If you haven't already seen this, then enjoy! Laugh! Snort derisively! It's what we Vancouverites do best. ;D

Remember the debut of these supposedly adorable widdle 2010 Olympic mascots?

Ha! Our local dj's were asking people to call in and say what they thought Winnipeg's mascots would be, and I called in to say "Mullet-man" and "Pornstache".

Other people suggested 'Squeegie kid' and 'road rage man'. :D

[glockgal]

OMG HI FIVE to getting to say 'pornstache' on the radio, HEEEE. That is like. AWESOME DUDE.

Oh Squeegie Kid. That's like, a Canadian mascot.

Why do you hate the Olympics? Or is it that you hate what Vancouver is doing to prepare for the Olympics?

[glockgal]

Don't get me wrong; I love the idea of guys getting oiled up to throw discus and shotput and wrestle.

But yeah; you'd really have to live in Vancouver to understand what corporate Olympics is doing to the city.

O.o reminds me of the Simpsons episode where they try to get the olympics, and homer designs 'Springy'.

yeah.

:D *hug*

[glockgal]

YES. Where was the mascot competition?! I would have totally elected for Springy (and pasted a maple leaf on the top so that it wasn't copyright infringement, eh hehehe)

But... but you have a fucking sasquatch!!! NO ONE CAN BEAT CANADA NOW!!!!!

[glockgal]

FOFL. OMG I wish they kept it at the level of CROTCHIE instead of trying to further co-opt bastardized AZN-cutsie versions of First Nations culture.. GYAH DIE OLYMPICS, DIE.

[parsimonia]

Haha...aw. I don't quite understand why the Olympics need mascots in the first place. Do they have them every year or is it just for 2010?

[glockgal]

Apparently it's every year! Who knew? Not I, until, you know. It happened in my back yard. ;D

OLYMPICS GO BACK TO GREECE.
