I had my hair bobbed properly now, and three thick blonde highlights.



The Nazgul got a blue streak, and the ends cut back by seven inches. Now everybody can see that she belongs to the dark blue side of the Force...

**eyes flist with posts about 'ice dancing is not a sport' and 'skeleton and luge were invented by drunk guys thinking it a good idea at the time'**

Could it be possible that even the silliest ice-and-snow activity can become an Olympic discipline because the time-and-place for them is severely limited, thanks to the overall geography and meteorology of planet Earth?

As to say, there isn't that much of a choice of things to do in ice and snow, so in order to fill the Winter Olympics calendar up nicely, even moronic stuff like curling is included. Or biathlon, which is basically cross-country skiing with added random breaks for shooting some sort of air gun. WTF, people??

Of sports and competitive activities you can do in summer, though, there are lots and lots and lots and lots. So not even kendo, which is a mass sport even offfered in schools in Japan and Korea, and has niche popularity in many, many, many other countries, has a chance of becoming Olympic.

Now, if they just wore shoes! Then they could apply for the Winter Olympics, and hit each other in the snow. The rest of their traditional gear should be warm enough. But not barefoot. Eurgh!

Advertising on Web 2.0 sites is not meant to sell whatever shit it pretends to be about. Nobody ever orders a Muslim bride, clicks on that idiotic weight loss link with shrinking!chick on, or wants that insanely giggling deathday oracle cast for themselves.

If you want to sell services or products, you go via Google ads, in either direction.

These annoying ads are MEANT to be annoying like hell, and their real purpose is to sell paid accounts, which make those ads go away.

It works, too.-
