basically anything worth watching happens at 3 in the morning, which is ridiculous. I'm exhausted from waking up to watch ski jumping at 5, not sure it's very sustainable over 16 days. i actually had to watch the ceremonies on NBC last night if you can freaking believe it. now i have tape-delay luge on but it's not live obviously so I'm starting to question whether the athletes can actually hear me shouting at the screen and react in real time to my coaching advice. i am however enjoying as the commentators dance around the OAR question while avoiding mentioning doping or the IRL country of russia. watching canada miss a couple bronze medals already has also been entertaining but at this point i'm feeling bad and want them to start winning. honestly i'm on team anyone who can beat OAR. at first I thought it was only going to be a couple of athletes in exceptional circumstances but those numbers seemed to have crept up. sus. i forget the point of this thread. oh right, the time zone. well, there are a few things on before i go to bed.

the WOG is losing bidders at about the same rate this forum is losing posters.

it's easier than ever to accuse someone of being a drug cheat these days. don't believe me? try it for yourself and see. great way to work out unresolved jealousy issues, too.

just finished depressing thai-swedish drama "30 degrees in february" and am scoping about for a new foreign show because, like you, i'm a giant dork and enjoy subtitles (classy). "alpine house" is an estonian (lol i know, i know) drama centering on the world of sports doping. here's the theeurotvplace.com description. sounds good, but what if it sucks? that's why i want you to watch it for me and tell me if i should bother. i'd read reviews and such normally but i'd like to hear what olympic dorks think about it first and i don't know any bigger dorks than you guys.

later today, idk in like an hour or 2, laura tesoro will perform to MILLIONS of people around the world, and potentially TRILLIONS of extraterrestrials from distant exo-planets that receive our radio signals but haven't made contact because we've destroyed their civilizations with our addictive reality TV programing. somewhere out there, a gas-based alien planet that thinks australia is right-side up is craving a laura win as badly as the most intelligent, savant representatives of our race (me). here are some things laura's got going for her in no particular order except the order i feel like writing them in: laura's got a funky catchy little dance song literally stolen from super-big hit songs. and thieves, much like cheaters and liars, always come out ahead in the end. don't believe me? take a look at the world we live in (FIFA) laura is slaying the choreography. i've spent the last week reading every youtube comment and forum post on laura, and ever her haters literally can't believe how well she dances/sings. they are literally in tears because laura is moonwalking all over the corpses of their sappy-ballad favorites. laura performs last, which is literally everything. also, she's the only dance-funk song in her semi and the only good song in eurovision ever. we don't deserve laura: she is just too cool for your exo-planet (see fig. 1 below) please do not ask her why the sun is shining, long after the day is done. she will literally go into this whole three minute thing. every single time.
