You know what's bugging me?The organisers of these here Olympics have done a fantastic job so far. To build so many quality sporting arenas and fit all of these events in a city like London is a quite remarkable feat - yet all they get is mocking. In any other country their efforts would be lauded, often with 'You'd never catch us doing anything that well' but as it's in our own back garden we mock and demean.
Really winds me up, rule Britannia. We're the size of a small state in the USA and we're hosting the biggest sporting event in the world.

You must be very easily bugged given that the mainstream media is overwhelmingly pro-Olympics. If you get so severely wound up by a little bit of satire (which highlights genuine concerns about the event) I suggest you avoid places like b3ta.
