The Olympics are starting a year from today. That's gonna be here real fast; heck, before you know it, China will have finally conquered the weather.
Remember, we're gonna get stomped by China, which, you know, kind of makes us think the Olympics are more like the real world that we figured. One year away. Shame they don't have the halfpipe.

Evenin', DU!ANers.
Say it with me, "Orympics"
A year!! I thought all Chinese is deliver in 15 minutes.
Yeah, well when you have a billion people drinking toad piss, roadrunner bile, and bull semen, you're bound to find a few that'll grow gills, run a 4.1 forty, or be able to lift a (counterfeit) VW over their heads.
If they manage to eliminate spitting then our country has no chance of survival in the next 100 years.
@DirtyJersey: You know what they say in China: If you are a 1 in a million talent, there are a 1,000 people just like you.
@chilltown: And 300 of you in America.
They better reinforce that wall, I heard the mongorians are pranning to attack on the eve of the orympics.
@GyroBallsDeep: Goddamn Mongorians bleaking down my shitty wall!
Remember, we're gonna get stomped by China
Especially in the tainted consumer product manufacturing, political speech suppression and fireworks events. Might as well give 'em the Golds now.
Can't wait to check out the track events, live from Racist Park.
@Dale Ellis Driving School: No, it's China... not Korea
@Athletic Supporter: No its China, not Japan .
Fixed
Seriously, the Japanese are the most racist society on earth.
NBC's contract with the Olympics makes Jason Giambi's albatross look like a chikadee. No other program gets worse ratings per dollar. Except for maybe Arrested Development.
I can't wait for the Tiananmen Square tank chase!
Drink up, be merry. Welcome to the China Club. A ching a chang chung a chinga chung chang.
Can you guys let me know when you've gotten bored with broad cultural stereotype theater so I can come back then? Thanks.
@Yostal: 15 minutes. Always 15 minutes.
@Yostal: You do know that the best selling graphic novels in Japan are pretty much Little Sambo against Koreans and Chinese, right? The NYT did a series on this last year; they sell millions of these a year.
I wasn't calling all of China racist, I was referring to the sign they made for the Olympics that didn't quite get translated correctly (Racist Park instead of Racers Park). I'd post a picture of it, but I'm too lazy.
@chilltown: I think he's referring to the "pranning" and "orympics" type stuff. I too think that's at least a little lame.
@dismalScientist: Oh. I was quoting South Park there, but if thats offensive, my bad.
@Yostal: If it's good enough for "A Christmas Story", it's good enough for me.
@dismalScientist: I think you mean "a rittre rame."
@chilltown: Mine was a play on South Park too, whats up with the debbie downers in here...
I'm sure NBC is hard at work preparing to annoy and frustrate viewers with their coverage--and Bob Costas.
Jesus, hasn't anyone here watched a South Park episode or two?
Maybe I'm just so impressed that people can come here and function in an economy in a second language when I can barely do so in my native tongue. Maybe I just work with too many east asians.
I'll go drink some toad piss now.
@dismalScientist:
Chillax, brah, I'm sure you're not the only one who works with Asians. My Chinese homeboys call me "white devil." It's funny. Just like Engrish is funny.
@dismalScientist: you're on the wrong website for that, dude.
hoping to see yao's awkward wife with profane chinese symbol on back of her shirt as she watches US team kill chinese team.
Yes, I've seen that episode. Just because they say it in the context of their show doesn't mean it translates outside of it.
Anyway, I think I just don't like seeing people like us (I'm assuming), that is educated, tolerant people who probably like to rail on racist white trash in trailer parks who hate minorities and gays then act essentially in the same manner. For some reason, one form of ignorance is accepted and the other isn't.
/end poor southerner rant
/begin dick jokes... now!
South Park Mongorians
@dismalScientist: Dude, this website thrives on South Park, Simpsons, and many, many other hilarious tv show quotes. So, anything that they "say in the context of thier show," actually does translate outside of it. At least here, anyways.
@Cookie Guggleman:
NBC has already taped a majority of the Olympic events and will be presenting them as "Plausibly Live".
@dismalScientist: That's easy, it's a matter of degrees. Engrish is funny, slavery is not.
And don't think for a second that a white person who goes to another country and tries to speak the native language doesn't get made fun of for "talking funny." That's a universal comedy goldmine right there, boy I tell you what.
Me Chinese, me play joke. Me crush democratic student protests.
But where is Mamura?
@PeteJäyhawk™: That didn't rhyme. Sorry.
Look, I get it. I don't recall this one being in the episode though.

Say it with me, "Orympics"
I just think we're better than that. And with that, it's time for restaurant week to begin, at least for me.
@PeteJäyhawk™: Me Chinese, me play joke, me put antifreeze in your dog food.
Oh jesus, that didn't rhyme either, sorry.
Me so sarry
Personally, I can't wait to see the Gang of Four in the relays.
@dismalScientist: You haven't been here very long, have you?
All I know is that if anyone from the United States delegation finds a foreign substance that could be urine in their cola beverage, I reserve the right to make a certain comment.
@quick: I was just about to ask the same thing.
One word almost all cultures can agree with: Boobs. I can't for the life of me figure out how anyone can make that sound funny in a different accent.
Discuss.
@Becky_MI (FKA bmill525) No, but "jubblies" sounds funny in just about any accent.
@Becky_MI (FKA bmill525): Hear hear.
@Becky_MI (FKA bmill525):
I think dick joke also translates worldwide.
yabbos.
See, if the Palestinians and Israelis would just sit down over some dick and fart jokes, we'd have this whole thing solved right now.
And we wouldn't even need Sutcliffe to help.
Someone needs to start a blog to report all random gropings of foreign women during the Olympics. Sort of like Gawker Stalker, but maybe Beijing Grabbing?
8 days in China and, while I admit to being "oh look random tall pale, blonde woman", having my ass grabbed without so much of a "heyyyy" got old quickly
