Why have the Olympics lost their appeal, or have they?

The canoeist is quite a handsome chap

Eh I don't think it's the time or place.

What if she says no

 

[peternorth]

What if she says no

then she says no lol

making it funny in a dark and gritty way

fair enough, respect your opinion. however, when it comes to proposing there isn't a right or wrong place.

So you can propose on the toilet? During a bj/sex? Propose at a rubbish tip?

yes of course you can.

say two people in love met while working at the tip. it has meaning to them. one day, man proposes to woman at work, the tip.

aside from that, where do you think it is only appropriate to make a marriage proposal?

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

Proposing during a bj would be something.

Just change the pearl necklace to a pearl ring

i see social media outrage about men taking attention away from their loves by proposing to them at the medal ceremony (chinese divers).

really? ffs love transcends all.

Yeah saw that quite bizarre that a male can get on their high horse against it.

 

[IKnowtheDog]

this is love in the 21st centruy

Lmfao nice try pete- just no.

Probably cliche but a quiet beach, sunset, bottle of champagne and a picnic would be ok by me. No fancy beach in Fiji or anything I'd be happy with Apollo Bay or something.

The Usain Bolt pic is the highlight of the Olympics for me ... because that is the main thing I will remember six months from now.

 

[Catfish Alley]

Im not sure about that photo. I thought DeGrasse was running on his other side. I think it was more a grimace than a smile anyway. He wasn't too far in front to relax.

You're ruining it for me.

The middle one would be creative. She would need to be a ventriloquist.

That's the point of social media isn't it?

What's people's take on the runner's who dived across the line??

I personally put it up with with Australia's underarm bowling v NZ or whatever it was..

 

[Shell]

Also the one thing I wanna watch (along with the non existent gymnastics), the Closing Ceremony is 9am Monday.

And dont say replay to me. Gotta be live or GTFO.

Saw stuff all of the gymnastics. Really disappointed.

Even though its apparently a legal move and it's the first to get their torso over the line i reckon its bs. Its a running race not a diving race. In my mind the 2nd lady won.

I agree. I file it under "not in the spirit of the race and/or games".

Other people would say it's smart af.

 

[Catfish Alley]

I'd be one of those other people I guess. Thought it was smart.

 

[The Passenger]

It's not the first dive to have happened, and it won't be the last (unless they change the rules).

It's high risk high reward. Go too early and she doesn't make the line and might not even medal.

It's hard to outlaw as well. You could claim it was an accidental stumble.

 

[Shane Hird]

Worst Olympic Games ever.

Sad really.

 

[Aussie_boy]

The Qatari handball team. That's why.

Oh and Bahraini runners.

 

[Shell]

Well I'm sick. On the plus side looks like I'll be able to watch the Closing Ceremony live.
