The Ochlympics: Glasgow 2014

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Which one do we discuss sport on?

 

[QueenOfGoths]

This one.

I agree with weeps! Maybe a kind mod can combine the two.

 

[Gingerman]

Oh, God. Rod Stewart, Susan Boyle and Lulu

 

[Lord Camomile]

Did Daley Thompson just call Lineker "Gaz"?

"The waiting is almost over" - I'll be honest, I've been waiting all of three minutes...

 

[Lord Camomile]

I'm not sure, I'm hopping between the two or whichever is higher up the page

I agree with weeps! Maybe a kind mod can combine the two.

I'm sticking with this 'un.

I've been waiting since 7.30pm. Didn't realise they were going to have all this nonsense beforehand. Could have watched Corrie

 

[Lord Camomile]

Oh Ewan McGregor, why do I not look like you?!

Figured it'd be a UNICEF thing; fair play.

 

[Espresso]

Ewan McGregor's got new teeth, I see.

 

[weepiper]

Ooh, Chvrches to open, that's a score for them.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Oh God, singing.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Scotland, just got to the 90s, apparently...

 

[Belushi]

good so far

 

[weepiper]

Oh fucking hell

 

[QueenOfGoths]

I do like John Barrowman...but he is also a bit embarrassing!

 

[Lord Camomile]

Oh lawkins, this is causing a real internal struggle between the cynical little shit in me and the daft bastard

This is very daft...

 

[TheHoodedClaw]

BARROWMAN!!

 

[Lord Camomile]

Oh fucking hell

It is a little community hall/gang show. But there's a charm in that. Honest.

 

[sleaterkinney]

It's a bit of a crap rip off of the Olympics.

 

[QueenOfGoths]

Tunnocks Teacakes!!

 

[Dillinger4]

lolllllllllllllllllllll

 

[Belushi]

this is ace

 

[Espresso]

Is it an actual law that these opening ceremonies have to be utterly batshit bonkers?
I like it!

 

[weepiper]

SOMEBODY MAKE HIM STOP FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

 

[Belushi]

The Tunnocks Teacakes are fucking awesome

 

[gabi]

Fucking hell. This is superb.

 

[sleaterkinney]

What was that purple thing?.

 

[gabi]

Who the fuck is this legend?

 

[QueenOfGoths]

The Tunnocks Teacakes are fucking awesome

They have been my favourite bit. They should have dressed John Barrowman as one!

 

[Lord Camomile]

"Right, it's an international event, going out to millions of people for whom English isn't their first language. And sometimes people struggle a bit with the accent..."
"Fuck 'em, we're singin' "

 

[TheHoodedClaw]

"Tiny ponies, hairy cows..."
