This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

I joyfully watch the olympics once every four years.

 In the '80s I predicted the Mary Lou Retton win....6 months before those Olympics. Also, Cincinnati has a Gymnastics school that trained at least 5 of the "Magnificent 7" of the 1996 team.

Also like that shooting and Skiing event - whatever that one is called.

There ya go!  Now I have something to hang my righteous dislike of the Olympics on.

Biathlon.
Somehow, most of our biathletes seem to come straight from the army, and a lot of them train here in the Black Forest area.

For some strange reason that isn't going to be displayed at the summer olympics though ;)

Out of curiousity, does anyone know what those Chinese characters mean?  I wouldn't want to show up in China in a tee-shirt that read "Death to Mao" or "I'm stupid, take my cash".
I think he wants the English slogan(s) inside the post to be on your T-shirt. Running the screen name through a couple online translators, the best I get is "Feng Zhi-kun". So I think it's just a name.

I love his avatar. Am I not enough of a history wonk to recognize who that is, or is it just a random Asian guy?

It's Jiang Zemin, the face of political retrenchment.

Fuck--these Chinese spambots are sophisticated!
