    And some of the Brits are already starting to eat their own.

    "What is it about these Games which seems to drive the organizers into the embrace of this kind of patronizing, cretinous infantilism?" asked British design critic Stephen Bayley.


    Fail on every possible level.

    Why did they dress up two human beings like giant cocks?

    That was my first thought. The Penis Twins.

    That's just rude and wrong.

    They're obviously dildos.

    I'm not sure I want to know much about their sex lives, but the one has the silhouette of the face of the other right over its crotch.

    What would the media write about during an Olympics if they couldn't complain about something?

    In London? Not the food. That's for sure.

    Nothing has been worse than "Whatzit?, the Atlanta mascot.

    Kobi of Barcelona was the last Olympics mascot that didn't suck. But London has taken it to a whole other level of horror.
    BTW, my daughter was in Barcelona last month and she reported stores near the main Olympic venues from '92 still sell Kobi-branded merchandise. That was 18 years ago.

    Clearly, Hondo has a crush on the blue one. Even though that blue she-penis has a vagina the size of Hyde Park.

    Hot dog ... down ... a ... hallway.

    You know, Whatzit/Izzy was an abomination, but you do have to admit that this thing perfectly captured the design aesthetic of the Teal Era in sports. So there's that.
