The athlete murdered wasn't on the olympic team, the athletes refusing to go weren't on the olympic teams, and the water test was two years old. I know we're all very excited for this to be a complete mess, but let's not get ahead of ourselves

As much as I feel for all the poor and working class people in Brazil that have to deal with this corruption and crimewave... this entire fiasco is riveting and I honestly check this thread for hilarious updates first thing every morning.

Hm, let's see what's going on with the Olympics in the news today: Wow, that looks bad. Wonder what the official Olympics page and the Rio 2016 Games page have to say about all of this trouble and concern...   Oh, good. Everything's fine. I wonder if all of those displaced favela kids can grow up to compete on the refugee team.

Here is a good piece on how the security and cops situation in rio is breaking down. An excerpt "To compound the situation, Rio’s state government is broke and has slashed police budgets by a third. The state relies heavily on tax revenue from offshore oil fields, and its revenue has been decimated by the tumbling global price of oil. Short on supplies, morale and at times even ammunition, police stationed in Rio favelas such as this one are increasingly confined to their bases, one officer said, speaking on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to comment. “Before they used to do patrols, talking to residents, working out conflicts,” Brandão said. “I think they gave up.” Beltrame, the state security official, said that he had been forced to cut overtime hours for hundreds of officers. Budgets for fuel and food have been reduced — at one police station in central Rio, local residents have been donating stationery and toilet paper. “I have never faced a crisis like this,” said Beltrame, who has been in his job nine years." https://www.washingtonpost.com/worl...eadlines&wpmm=1

My opinion is that the whole financial system is intrinsically lazy and basically shoved all its money into oil because why not, it's guaranteed money, right? Now lol we're really seeing the curse of oil

Camping.. Intense! posted:but the Athletes wont be getting pregnant and LOL if your a tourist going to Brazil. Get this guys: Zika is sexually transmitted and only fucks you up if you get pregnant... so people just shouldn't get pregnant or go to Brazil and things will work out fine!  Just in case my cutting wit was confusing, despite all the warnings about Zika, athletes will get pregnant and tourists will go to Brazil.

It's gonna be just Zika, other diseases, and sadness zika, the acai berry, mma gym Jiu Jitsu coaches, independent commercial flight small-batch electronics importer & those gross cans of corned beef you get at the dollar store. These five industries will be the backbone of the Brazilian economy for the next decade.

Raar_Im_A_Dinosaur posted:Um, Butts? Not in terms of an export economy. True, Brazil has been a pioneer of dangerous injectible cosmetics domestically, but its really the tabloid newspapers and clickfarms in need of a good medical horror story that give the procedure a nationalized moniker. That said, I never want to be with a woman that does not have tire puncture sealant in her rear end and airbag accelerant in her lips.

50 kills 50 injured is a pretty impressive for one guy. ISIS at Rio is reall gonna have to step it up with like 8 guys blastin the hell outta everything. The Brazillian military will start firing like crazy in response too with no regard to civillians so i expect some really high casualties. poo poo could get crazy. Man this plus trumps remarks about it. Its gonna be amazing.

I would prefer it if nobody got hurt but everyone that goes gets Zika and nobody wants to gently caress them ever again and risk contracting it so we create a separate race of abstinent uber-men & women with the physical prowess and peak physique of Heracles but with the sullen social anxiety and basement dwellery of the goonlordiest goon. A human paradox if you will. But an entire new race of them. We surrender the super-dry interior of the Antarctic to them and come back in 10,000 years. To some remarkable still tableau as their perfect athlete bodies dry out into finest human jerky. Or it begets a Civ5 nightmare scenario where someone scuttled off to that inaccessible single plot at the southern reaches with two fish and some iron ore and went on to win through astounding tech boosting and purchased space ship parts with all those original gold medals left lying around.
