Michael Phelps is beginning to annoy the hell outta me. I want someone to beat his ass.

Mildly unrelated, but I've checked the internet and news every day since the Olympics started, hoping Canada had gotten a medal yet, and they still haven't. I'm so preemptively discouraged this year that I don't think I've watched a single event.

I keep rooting for Canada, the UK, and even Australia. And France. Go France!

Fuck, anyone but Phelps at this point. :(

Agreed. The Phelps madness is annoying me.

Bring on Bear!!! I mean, how badass is that? His name is BEAR.

I used to watch Formula 1 racing, and eventually stopped because the same fucking driver won the Championship year after year. It gets...dull! There's no joy, or excitement. Give others a chance, I guess?

Canada tends to do better during the Winter Olympics, I think, though I hope things pick up and they start doing better.

Phelps isn't even swimming and they won't STFU about him. :pissy:

I so don't even CARE about the olympics this year...

Silly world.

Is it wrong of me to want him to fail a drugs test? Think of it - he wins all 8, gets all 8 world records, and there's all the fawning and stuff... then he pisses out something he shouldn't have...

It's only a small part of me that wants that... x)

Is it wrong, that if he does I want it to be marijuana? Would certainly explain all those calories....

Also because it'd be hilarious.

there's a part of me that says: hey he's earned some of the glory, and some time in the spotlight.

but a huge part (like, 89%) of me says: Hey! what about all those other kids who worked their asses off to make it past the auditions and practiced for years to get where they are?

so I'm with you on this one :\

wish I cared more about the Olympics...but I'm more of a politics news junkie

there's my two cents

I've got a theory that he's actually Aquaman.
