Fuck The Olympics
If the Olympics were just a sporting event then it wouldn't be a big deal. But the Olympics is not a sporting event. The Olympics is 16 days of personal interest stories and nationalism. If it wasn't the Olympics virtually no one would give a shit who could row the fastest or jump the farthest. Taken out of the Olympics no one cares about these events. And the nationalism is even worse. What really makes a nation great? Is it a strong economy or amount of personal freedoms? No. The true test of a country is how many medals it can win. As an American citizen should I really feel proud that the guy who can swim the fastest was born here? If an Italian won does that mean they are better than Americans by default? And as for the athletes personal lives that is useless information. Is it really that inspiring that a black kid from the Bronx grew up to be an Olympic gymnast? And quit showing they're parents in the stands. Oh look his mom seem worried for him. Wow. A mom that is worried about her sons performance in athletics. My mom was nervous for me when I was up to bat in little league. The Olympics is nothing but flag waving and Lifetime drama.

For cereal Collegehumor, what have you done to uPICK? It has pretty much died since you put it under the more section and also rough love just isn't the same as "dating it's complicated". I loved those articles and I miss them a whole lot. I want dating it's complicated articles back even if they're just on a random schedule and not weekly. Rabble, rabble, rabble angry face >:(
The so-called comedy 21 & Over is offensive. Not because it’s racist, sexist, homophobic and cruel, but because it’s racist, sexist, homophobic and cruel in a dull, monotonous way.
Is it just me, or do you guys get annoyed whenever someone brags about how they never need to solve for x or use any math in their lives? If you are one of those people, youre missing the point of high school and college. Schools are meant to show you a wide variety of human education in the hopes of you finding a certain subject youre interested in, and also to teach you stuff... Read More »
