Paris 2024 general thread

Less than two years to go. And we have some mascots



Best Phyrges Ever

 

[GNL]

Excusez-moi, mais WHY do they not have a chic bob and a cigarette grasped daintily in their fingerless hands?

 

[Diddy]

What are they? Stuck-up noses?

 

[Madíson]

I’m hoping this is the most bonkers Olympics ever.

 

[COB]

I think they look like little bitches actually.

What are they? Stuck-up noses?

Don’t tell me you’ve never seen Delacroix’s painting and not thought “that is an impressive hat that Marianne is wearing”.

 

[RaspberrySwirl]

What are they?

COCKS

I’m not sure what to think of this:

 

[GinAg (39)]

Good! Sports cost and Olympians are famously skint.

 

[Sheena]

Yeah, it always needed to happen. It’s been standard in world championships for ages.

When oh when are WA going to employ proofreaders/ decent translators though? “A prize money”?

 

[Sheena]

I’ve finally booked my Paris accommodation this week too. I was worried I wouldn’t find anywhere so I’m finally feeling excited about going.

Reading that, I was expecting it to say a lifetime supply of Anastasia Cosmetics.

How far into Paris do you reckon the Olympic flame will get before somebody uses it to torch a car?

 

[Sheena]

Loads more tickets went on sale this morning- finally completed the athletics set and have nabbed a gymnastics ticket for the 3rd, which has lots of apparatus finals, including the men's pommel. Getting PROPERLY excited now
