Tired of discussing the Bunnymen and all the bands that have been influenced by them? This is the place for you.

I think the apricot Mohican hairstyle suits her.

A moment to be serious:

Congrats to the host nation for having a great Olympics! Your team is kicking some major arse.

Football team got knocked out though (by South Korea!) . Saw South Korea play Gabon (we were honorary Gabonsters for the day, though it didn't do them much good) at Wembley on Wednesday and they looked pretty ordinary.

Currently 3rd in the medal table, as we're such a small country compared to China and the US that means we're fucking great we are.

What's great about you people is that you're delightful hosts.

That British versus The Red Cross tennis match was good. But in general, the Olympics kind of suck.

John Lloyd is a credit to your people.
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

The US is missing from that "before" pic. That's the country with 29 gold medals for those counting.

Yeah, I noticed that. I think it's because they pretend they never really wanted us anyway.

Like a bastard child that we are now slightly embarrassed at how it turned out.
