happy to see skateboarding at the olympics, the uk commentators are rly good as well, even if the judging is all over the place

its funny that people are still seething about it being included

opening ceremony was boring as fuck

apparently they were planning to have much, much more cool excravagent exciting shit originally but they have no money to do it anymore, and it just felt wrong with what's going on

can't watch the weightlifting anywhere because the uk isn't competing in most the categories and everywhere else you gotta pay to watch

but i just watch the live results as they come in

They also fired the director a day before due to a Holocaust joke he made in the 90s

If you're talking about Cornelius, who was the musical director
He was fired for bullying a mentally disabled dude during like middle-school to high-school

Spoiler: some people might not like reading this so here's your warning

And I'm talkin stuff like forcing the kid to eat his own feces, rolling him into gym mattresses and kicking him, forcing him to wank infront of the class n stuff like that

And apparently he wasn't showing a lot of remorse for it up until recently

Spoiler: eitherway

eitherway
Groove tube and Doctor Head's World Tower is still always gonna be a banger

No, not him. Guy I’m talking about is Kentaro Kobayashi who was the actual director.

A Holocaust joke during a standup comedy skit is not horrible shit lol. The other guy fair enough but it was just stupid in the directors case.

It's especially funny considering it's closer to a traditional athletic sport than shooting is, and nobody seems to have any problem with that being included. Either that or they just didn't know it was included because who the fuck cares about Olympic shooting lol
