Auta i lómë.

WTF Vikings? Where has this show been all my life? Wow.

So, I just realized, that scene where I have Maedhros cleaning his sword, get pissed off, drop the cleaning rag, and chop off someone's head? MAEHDROS ONLY HAS ONE HAND. That's not going to work out.

Damn. Now I need to figure out something else for him to be idly doing, one-handedly, that involves him holding his sword. With his only hand. Hmmm.

Look, I know the Green Arrow was never exactly the brightest superhero in the lair, but I swear to the Valar, his television adaptation has lost about 20 IQ points. This is a CW thing, isn't it?

I'm not ready to say goodbye to Amy and Rory!!

Edit: *weeps*

Does anyone else have any &@$#! idea what's going on in the opening ceremony? Seriously, this is just incomprehensible.


Edit: Oh wait! This is a celebration of the change from bucolic English countryside to smelly, polluted, slave-labour-employing Industrial Revolution, right? Go Team GB!

Edit 2: It would be so much more awesome if the Queen had actually parachuted out of the chopper. I'm just saying.

Edit 3: Swing-dancing nurses? Ok, you lost me again.

Edit 4: Did the Olympics opening ceremony just turn steampunk?

Edit 5: This is SO WEIRD.

Edit 6: Is David Beckham actually driving that power boat? I would seriously not get on a boat David Beckham was driving.

Spain won.

Monty did not play badly.

I am very pleased.


PS Now that Spain is both Euro and WC champions, how is the Confed Cup going to have an even number of teams next summer?

What the actual fuck, Germany.

I mean, on the one hand, Germany is a better team than Italy, so I should be glad if Italy goes through. On the other hand, Spain has absolutely awful luck/history against Italy, and if Italy wins the damn Euros, my head will fucking explode.


Edit: I don't believe it, Germany. How on earth did you manage to fuck this up? Italy? This Italy??? You were supposed to be awe-inspiring and then give Spain a challenge! It was supposed to be your time! The fruit of all your labors! A vindication of the counter-attacking style! Now it's Italy who are going to give Spain a challenge, and that's... not so much. Argh.

What is that? Monty is starting???? PERMANENTLY STOP ALL THE PRESSES. FOREVER.

...Although, to be frank, that's probably good for England. Damn.


Edit: OH MONTY, WHY.

I am never using your pimp icon again.

Edit 2: THANK HEAVENS.

And now Germany is going to run over Italy in the semis, which of course is exactly as it should be. As long as Spain doesn't fuck itself over against Portugal, it should be a brilliant final.

1. I still hate England.

2. Neither England nor Ukraine have ever, apparently, learned how to pass. (Or maybe I'm just spoiled.)

3. Fucking goalline technology already. Seriously.

4. France are absolutely abject and Spain should have no trouble beating them in the quarterfinals.

5. However, one should never underestimate Spain's ability to shoot itself in the foot. Repeatedly. With a machine gun.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OLAF FUCKING MELBERG!!!!!!!!!! Not that England's defense being rubbish wasn't helpful....

(For the record, I'm not actually supporting Sweden [they're way too rubbish for that], it's just that I really, really hate England.)


Edit: HA HA FUCKING HA!!!!!! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Edit 2: Damn it damn it damn it damn it.

Edit 3: I officially hate the world.
