2012 Olympics Mega Thread with Polls

[Woodruff]

Did you know that no high jumper in the history of high jumping has never managed to stay off of the ground for more than a second?

double negative?
or have they all done it?

Uh...read it again.

i sometimes wonder whether you're actually borderline illiterate and all of your accusations of reading comprehension failures are actually projections of your own insecurities

I misread a word. It happens.

If you would make the choice to conduct yourself with maturity and grace you wouldn't find yourself in positions where you're being regularly called out for going utterly apeshit over minor miscues.

f*ck off, troll.

The way you choose to conduct yourself is so unusual, however, that John's question was a sound and reasonable inquiry as to your cognitive status. I certainly don't think you should read it as an insult.

f*ck off, troll.

I misread a word. It happens. I'm suprised that you'd go all batshit on it like this, to be honest. See, unlike those who I accuse of reading comprehension failures (every time...go ahead and look), I have no problem admitting that I misread it. But don't let that stop you from going all batshit...seems like a pretty over-the-top response to my fairly soft post, but hey, at least Saxi liked it, so you've got the trolls on your side.

you're forgiven, but the next time* i "fail to comprehend" something on this forum, promise to be lenient with me, ok?

*first time

I don't RECALL (which may not mean much) you ever being steadfastly opposed to re-reading something when it's been pointed out to you that you read it wrong. That's when my ire comes out. Otherwise, just like in the instance above, I simply try to point it out (even though I was wrong). I didn't accused you of lack of reading comprehension, did I?

Woodruff has the grace and elegance of Eva Gabor.

f*ck off, troll.

Er, I mean Rosie O'Donnell.

Can we get a new poll, the last one was soooo 3 days ago.

[Timminz]

Is it just my imagination, or is NBC really screwing the pooch on these Olympics? There are four or five different channels on which I can watch the games, depending on the time of day, and NBC seems to always be showing events that have already happened (and to which I know the results) or water polo.
