    Why would I buy 5000 condoms for $700+ when I can buy 1000 XXL condoms for $110? #5000leftovercondoms

    Were they expecting some major intercontinental booty calls that they had to hand out condoms at the Olympics? #5000leftovercondoms

    @trekie86: Apparently after the athletes' events they all go back to the hotel they are staying in and fuck each other silly. Seriously, I read an article (I think in the paper) about it. I instantly got jealous.
    Edit: See rootyb's comment.

    @Duckspwn: Yeah, the Olympic village is a sex fest for most of the 2 week event. Just think. You have THOUSANDS of athlete's, all basically on vacation, all in tip top condition, toned, hard bodied, and rarin' to go. (Remember reading probably the same article...I got jealous too.)

    (Edit: crap...just read rootyb's comment.)

    Was there some new Olympic event introduced in Beijing that was not televised?

    So, um -- why were they distributing condoms at the Olympics? Were they distributed to the participants, fans, pets of the fans? I tell you, the longer I live, the more confused I get. #5000leftovercondoms

    @Monty: They were distributed to the athletes. There was an article around the time of the olympics about how when you put together a thousand (or whatever number it is) of the world's most physically fit 16-24 year-olds with LOTS of energy (they're used to training 10-16 hours a day, and at the olympics, they aren't), a whoooooole lotta sexin' goes on. #5000leftovercondoms

    In reply to Beijing Olympics Fireworks Line Will Light Up China This Spring Festival
    SO the amount of fireworks broadcasted on TV was real? I thought some of em had to be digital so on TV it would look spectacular. Kinda like the Iran missile launch, and the Kim Jon Ill shadow. Speaking of the North Korean, my teacher for digital design just gave us a project to fix the bad photoshoping of Kim.

    @tkohrs2002:

    The fireworks in Beijing were real, but because of the pollution, some of them could not be seen (at least by the cameras in the helicopters) and were therefore edited back in.

    @terebakashi: I thought they said the reason was to make sure ppl saw what was really happening, and no helicopter could fly along the path at that speed safely capturing the fireworks. But they were real, they just made a digital version earlier for international audiences, as they wouldnt have gotten the whole picture of what was really happening.

    @Scazza:
    They wouldn't need to fly at exactly the same speed as the footprints were being launched. They could always start forward of the first footprint while shooting aft, and then end up behind the last footprint while shooting foreward. Problem is that at some point the footprint launches would have to pass the helicopter, and there's the very real possibility in there that something bad could happen. Especially if the helicopter was close enough to actually see the footprints and the terrain beneath them through the smogy haze.

    It says the clip has been blocked in my area. And I'm not even in China. That's some heavy censorship they've got.
