# Personally
I like the olympics and as a leading developed country, I think we should take our turn and am happy we got it.

If everyone stopped moaning and got behind it, it'd be a whole lot more successful and something we could be proud of.

# very much this^
i often wonder how many of the whiners would go to watch it if it was on somewhere else, same applies to any major sporting, cultural or ceremonial event

# I've decided to be largely supportive
of absolutely fucking everything, just cos I'm sick of the whinging attitude towards everything that the majority of the country has adopted.

# you and me both
the whingers can just shut up and sit in the corner and sulk. this is a bloody wonderful country, with lots of marvellous and talented people in it, it's not short of a bob or two either so lets make some noise and show off a bit.
we should perhaps refrain from trying to reclaim the empire though, that'll only end in tears.

# I'm with you on the leading developed country
At least you have enough electricity to meet the country's needs.
Which is important really for hosting big things.

# I don't understand why we need to 'take our turn'
That presupposes that we actually need a massive event where 'adults' run in circles and jump over things. If we're going to do our bit as a leading developed country, perhaps this should take the form of giving the money to nations where people can't afford to eat and not having the running in circles.
