I hope the women's tomorrow isn't this tense although I doubt it

 

[zoooo]

I know that was fair and everything, but I still can't help seeing them as cheaty complaining whinypants. I'd be quite embarrassed if GBR had been in 4th and got shunted up to silver by whining about it.

Doesn't seem fair that you can get silver when you FELL OFF.

I seem to have something in my eye

 

[girasol]

that was great to watch! Japan deserved silver though, and Britain the bronze.

The Ukranians looked like they were gonna be sent to labour camps if they didn't keep their bronze...

I agree

 

[zoooo]

Poor Ukrainians.

Hope crowd doesn't boo Japan.

Is it really cheaty complaining whinypanting if you were going to be cheated out of a medal by thicko judges unless you point out their error to them?
I think that's a bit on the harsh side.
I'll still be stealing whinypants and adding it to my vocabulary, mind.

Awww, cute hopping man.

Move over Tom Daley, it's Max Whitlock's turn to make me feel like a dirty old man

 

[Espresso]

I'm laughing at Mr Japan there, sniffing his flowers.
He looks very wary of them.

 

[girasol]

I felt really sorry for the Ukranians when they lost their medal, but not as sorry as I was feeling for the Japanese until they had the courage to appeal!

 

[zoooo]

Why do people always pose biting their medals?

Most events so far have had the effect of making me feel like a pervy old woman .

Or is 'cougar' the currently correct term?

 

[girasol]

I think that if you bite real gold there's tooth imprint? People bite gold to check if it's real... Of course those medals aren't real gold, so it's a symbolic gesture...

I could be completely wrong though

 

[Corax]

Bomb Japan!!!!! Bastards.

Feel even more gutted for Ukraine though.

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

And look at all those empty seats

They're a right tiny bunch of flowers aren't they

 

[zoooo]

It's really cute seeing all those muscular men holding pretty little bunches of flowers. D'aw.

 

[Espresso]

The interviewer is doing his best to get them to be arsey, isn't he?
What a git.

[zoooo]

They look like they taste horrible.

Ah, really? I didn't see that bit.

 

[Espresso]

I think they're lovely.
A woman at work pointed out he bleeeeding obvious to me today - they're English roses. Never twigged.

Ooooh! The bronze boys are talking on the telly now. Wooo hooo!

Yes, I noticed the roses but don't know what else is there. I reckon they'd have preferred a pint

You can't leave a tooth imprint in gold. But you can leave a tooth imprint in lead. You bite your medal to check that it's not made of lead.
