Jokes on you guys now they just have all the stray dogs in one place to launch into space.

Listen here, funnyman!
At least Montreal gets to breath a sigh of relief knowing there is a city that shat the bed and hosed the pooch worse than them when it came to Olympic planning.

Yes, it took them like 30 years to pay for the drat thing and the Olympic Stadium barely has a tenant (because nobody wants to get crushed under concrete) but at least the hotels didn't have piss water coming from their taps and a bunch of greasy, hairy dudes in track suits pocketing the money when the IOC wasn't looking.

I used to feel bad about Russians using dogs all the loving time in crazy experiments like seeing how long they can keep just the head alive or launching them into space. Now that I see that the whole loving country is lousy with wild dogs I'm not so saddened by it anymore.

They could also be pics from 2010 "Sochi prepares for the Olympics."

Not: "Sochi prepares for the Olympics tomorrow"

So when they have to make artificial snow for the skiing/snowboarding events, will they use the yellow water?

Now I'm picturing a skier blasting out of the box, seeing the literal piss slope and freaking out live on TV then stumbling down the mountain, eating a pile of it then violently vomiting as NBC cuts to their commentators who are pale-faced and silent.

This is going to be amazing.

speaking of ski slopes, the russians hosed those up leading to injuries during the practice sections since the jumps were too steep.

Some smaller ones that haven't been posted yet... not that I imagine anything will top the cultural center faked with a strategy from a Warner Brothers cartoon. At least until the games start.

Russia because they just dont give a gently caress. Brazil actually wants to put on a good face for the world so they will actually follow China's lead and successfully keep all the Dickensian decay out of the way for 2 weeks.

Stalker. It's based on the novel Roadside Picnic. Both inspired the game. Read the story, then watch the movie. Or the other way around. They both own.
