I have officially hit my limit.

THIS IS MY THESIS, MAN! THIS IS MY THESIS!

*snickers*

Not only are they walking, they're walking IN A CIRCLE.

It's a giant herd of MALLWALKERS. Oh god. I can't stop giggling. My sister just threatened to take the remote from me.

It's hypnotic. I CAN'T STOP WATCHING.

You can't look at them straight on. The swishy hips make you dizzy.

Wait, how do you get a yellow card in WALKING?!

LOOK AWAY! LOOK AWAY!

Not properly straightening your leg as you put your foot down.

*covers eyes*

"Oh, you got a gold medal at the Olympics! Doing what?"

[lovedbythesun.livejournal.com]

"OLYMPIC RACE WALKING. *PREEN*"

Everyone else: "*BURSTS OUT LAUGHING UNTIL HE LEAVES THE ROOM.*"

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Oh, noes! Someone's been DQed! *gasps*

Oh the heartbreak and tragedy of watching an entire Walking event, the lead Walker coming into the stadium miles ahead of the rest and ... they're DQed as they come through the entrance. =(

Next week: Olympic having a sit down and a cup of tea.

*headdesk* I TOTALLY found myself doing that last night, and then I turned off the tv because what?

man. walking is an olympic sport now? my conversation with ignipes about olympic four square and olympic monkey off the monkeys bars is seeming more and more plausible!

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

It's called race walking but, seriously, that was mallwalking. It's mallwalking for 20km in an oval. It's like they all showed up for a NASCAR meet but nobody brought a car. It's brilliant.

YES! I told my brother it was on last night and he looked at me like I was crazy. But I laughed HYSTERICALLY when that came on. POWER WALKING! And there were RULES! And YELLOW CARDS!

... why yes my mind has officially gone 'round the bend with all this Olympics stuff. I still haven't seen my handball tho. That's the only one I'm missing.
