By GQman2121 Go To PostThe budget for tonight's opening ceremony is 1/10 of what the UK paid four years ago.probably a bit of both. Costs in general are a lot lower than in London, I would imagine.
Them scrappy Brazilians know how to stretch a dollar. Or their officials are more corrupt and all have new homes and cars.

And Beijing definitely spent more than London did.
What progress we've made in penny pinching
Edit: $100M lmfao
My Sports Illustrated had a little section about "What to Watch" during this deadzone period of sports. The option was Opening Ceremony or Simpsons on FXX. They said watch the Simpsons because Homer goes on a hunger strike beats athletes on parade.

I've been rewatching a lot of Futurama lately, and this is really starting to stick out at me.
A quick recap:
Leela first thought Zapp was a legend and went on a date with him. She quickly sees that he's a moron. Zapp still ends up tricking her into pity sex, which he gloats about the next day. From then on, Zapp and Leela's interactions together tends to be about "Hey, I tricked you into having sex so we're technically former lovers." It's not that tricking somebody to have sex with you under false emotional pretenses is necessarily textbook-rape, but it is gross. It is gross in an unfunny way. So it just feels weird to see how much it is used as a punchline in the tv series. I never really hear people bring this up though. Am I overreacting?

By Bold 2 in One Go To PostSo far so good,
well done, Pele
It's a fucking ceremony, which has been overblown to proportion since 1980.
They should just skip them as far as I'm concerned.
