I loved watching the Olympics this August and I am in no way someone who stereotypes others, but when I read this, I just had to laugh. So read it and enjoy it and don't think less of me because of it. It is just clean fun.

...That was eleven things, Mrs. H. Anyhow, no, I haven't been watching the Olympics. I'm actually boycotting them :) haha!
Okay. First off, the Chinese people were destroying homes of their citizens just to build a parking lot for the olympics. So hundreds upon thousands of Chinese people lost their home for a ridiculous cause.
Secondly—have you heard about the Opening Ceremony crap? How the little girl singing was lip-synching? Supposedly, the girl that was actualy singing was “pretty” enough to sing, so they had to get another “pretty” girl to lip-synch while the “ugly girl” sang. Can you imagine what that’ll do to that girl’s self-esteem? Being told you’re ugly in an international event?!
And thirdly—the Chinese people have killed innocent people trying to watch the olympics. Especially the Tibetans.
Don’t we have other concerns than the Olympics? I wouldn’t boycott the Olympics if they were in a different country, but since they’re in a communist country, and cannot support them.
I just wasn't really interested in the Olympics. I don't know why but it just doesn't really interest me. Now the X-Games, I can watch that haha. I guess the X-Games have sports I'm actually interested in.
