According to Wikipedia, the average male ejaculate is around 10ml.

Therefore, by my calculations, that makes for a grand total of 1000L of semen to be produced during these games. If we assume a density for semen similar to that of water, that makes a grand total of 1 metric tonne of semen.


And that's not even taking into consideration wanking and blowjobs.

Hey there Myrtle, does it smell like rotting fig leaves in the fall?

BBC broadcast is underway, no dogs sighted yet. Journalists asking locals how much they love the olympics, people saying they love the olympics but "we have wasted a lot of money"

So what are the odds that a same sex couple kiss during the parade of nations in the opening ceremony?

This is assuming, of course, that a giant gay orgy doesn't break out in the spirit of "gently caress you, Putin!"

We are making a drinking game at home, yes.

Bottle of Stolichnaya.

Swig every time dog run on camera.

Swig every time security shoots avtomat.

Swig if security shoot at dog.

Another if carcass covered with tarp and sprayed white.

Drain bottle if terrorist attack.

Is good plan, we think. Plenty of kolbasa to eat. Yes.

It wouldn't be the Enterprise without a Sulu at the helm

Please don't let me be subjected to NBC's coverage of the Opening. They pissed me off last time with "Oh, you don't need to see this part of the opening because it's sad and only has to do with British people so let's cut to 30 minutes of Michael Phelps saying how grateful he is we let him come back after Bonggate. And now we're back to live coverage aaaaand this part sucks as well because we said it does so let's go to the women's gymnastics team and how happy are you t...."

gently caress you, NBC. And gently caress you, American Cable System.

Here's a decent stream of the BBC feed (almost-HD): http://www.vipboxus.co/winter-sports/206160/4/sochi-2014-opening-ceremony---winter-olympics-sochi-2014-live-stream-online.html

Haha poo poo. So the TenPlay site is apparently only a catch up thing. If you want to watch it actually live you have to download a lovely iOS/Android app.
And then they'll bitch later in the future that no-one in Aus watched it and they'll wonder why :v:
