LOL yeah...that'll teach Chirac to say the only thing we contribute is BSE.

I would sure hate to be the rowing team though. Being that close to the Thames doesn't seem like a good idea ;)

Congrats all you Brits. Kinda funny for the French, who've already been investing lots of money in propaganda and such.

Mm, it was only by four votes I think! Haha. Ah well, is all good. I'm really looking forward to it anyway ... even though I'll be like 25 or something ... bloody hell. Now it seems ages away, lol.

Has anyone actually been to an Olympic games before? Just curious. ^-^

Em no, you saved our arse a bit WW2 we are saving your arse in WW3 (I.E now) how the fuck do you need to bail us out? We are a superpower we built the world, I think we can handle one event.

Please don't turn this into another massive thread of flaming ... just ask yourself, do we actually give a crap?

Come and join in my stupid excitement about something that won't happen for seven years instead. ;)

We've saved your asses since WW1.


And if built the world, You mean went to Africa, captured slaves, and forced them to do the labor, is that something to really be proud of?


Yeah, thought not.

HAHAHAHAHAHA we beat the French. That in itself makes it great. Seriously, the French didn't do themselves any favours by practically celebrating before the announcement, being so self centred that they thought that no-one could beat them, and slagging the brits off too.

And Komataguri, what's your problem? Just because Americans are a bunch of self centred, overweight, over-the-top twats (mostly) doesn't mean you can piss on our parade.

You said we fuck everything up? Yeah, right, New York's bid failed miserably, we won instead... We hosted the Commonwealth games recently and sucessfully, we host many sports events, such as Wimbledon recently, which are extremely well organised. I'm REALLY sure we'll beg the Americans to bail us out.. bail us out of what exactly?

I can agree with most of this statement. The Brits did redefine the word empire. Though I don't see any WWIII but again we are talking about statments from Chem Ali AND Koma, so my expectations of logic are pretty low. :rolleyes:

Yeh, I'd love to see it! In fact I will, in 2012 anyway ... I plan on seeing the equestrian events, naturally. :rolleyes: I never paid much attention to them before the one in Sydney, mainly because my friend lives in Australia and she was all hyped about it ... that was a gorgeous event, I loved the opening ceremony.
