I love watching people sing and dance about how great the Cold War was.

can you flush toilet paper down your toilet?
Did you know that not being able to do this is really normal in East Europe?

Dont move to Mexico.
I take your word for it and won't.
yet another thing that makes our country great: the toilets work.
This cracked me up, even before someone added Jack. The doors in this Sochi hotel are like the mad scientist apartment scene in Steve Martin's The Man With Two Brains.
Who makes doors out of cardboard?
Where were you in '77?

Is it always winter in the country that holds the Winter Olympics when it is held, or can a country with snow hold the Winter Olympics in their summer? Is the designation based on the season in the host country, the northern hemisphere... Greece? Do places that have winter sports as their main sports call the Winter Olympics the Olympics and the Olympics the Summer Olympics? This is all too confusing. They should just call them the Hot Olympics and the Cold Olympics.

Their toilets work just fine. The paper in the trashcan doesn't particularly smell for a few days. So just empty that bin regularly. Probably helps that, in typical Russian homes, the toilet is in a separate room from the sink, tub/shower, etc.

What?
Winter Olympics = Snow
The only places you might find a decent amount of snow during summer would be Antarctica and places way up in the arctic. That's about it...
Oh, maybe I know what he means. In the southern hemisphere it is winter during the northern hemisphere's summer. So he's asking if it is sometimes held during the southern hemisphere's summer instead of that of the northern hemisphere. Right?
Australia finally scored a medal. I can stop paying attention now.

Fuck Putin and his anti-gay stance.
Anybody notice that if you view the flame monument from above it looks like the Rebel Alliance logo?
Maybe it's a secret message? Putin has been compared to the Emperor more than once. ;)

It's probably a fuse and the thing will explode at the closing ceremony revealing the Imperial logo.

Is 'Vladimir Luxuria' the best name ever or what? If it was the name of a Star Wars character, she'd be a member of the Black Sun crime syndicate.
btw It's great that some countries/organisations (USA, Italy, BBC, NBC) seem to have deliberately sent openly Gay people to Sochi to represent them, just to piss Putin off.
