A guy died on the luge track (after complaints were made about it before), the skiing events are all fucked up because of the weather, and the lighting ceremony was all screwed up.
Good job Canada.
This doesn't have a thread yet? I LOVE CURLING!
Anyway opening ceremonies are complete, first interesting story has happened. A Georgian luger died in a crash on a practice run.

From the "What's Buggin' You?" Thread:
Friend One: I'm embarrassed.
Friend Two: We do it to ourselves.
Friend Three: What a goon show.
We were all screaming at the TV.
Canadians complain about everyone thinking we're all moose, canoes, snow, igloos and parries. And then when we get a chance to showcase ourselves on the world stage, we trot out all of our stereotypes. Also: ice penises and technical malfunctions.

Vancouver is the warmest city to ever host the Winter Olympics, Diff.
Never as long as Omar Minaya is allowed to breath.
When it was first announced that the Olympics was coming here, I automatically assumed it was the summer one. Vancouver practically shuts down if it snows a couple inches. I guess the mountains in Whistler usually get enough snow but I think they had to fly some more in.
What's embarrassing is on the trains I have seen some Olympics ads that are only in French, as if anyone here speaks it.
