Re: A Thread for Random Videos Okay, we've read the comments about Alicia Sacramone, both good and bad. One of them claimed she punched a guy so hard, he fell down in pain. Of course, I had to see if it was true. Here's the video. Looks like it was a dare. The guy certainly seemed to be willing to get hit. The poster sounded like it was done in anger or malice.

Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread Awesome!

Re: Musings on Random Musings As sad as I am to see it, I'm not surprised. I saw a similar comment in Wikipedia last night. At least there were more people sympathetic to Alicia Sacramone than detractors in the comments section. I won't forget the look on her face that night for a while. Maybe she'll do better at the all-around event.

Re: A DC Animated-style HeroMachine Very cool!

Re: Genre-crossover nightmares Bubba Blowhard and the Temple of the Psychic Doughnut Okay, it's not based on anything. I just needed to let it out before I imploded.

Re: The cranky thread Judo has been an Olympic event for decades, long before Taekwondo was added. Epee is one of the fencing styles.

Re: The cranky thread The USA didn't fare well in Judo or Men's Epee. I guess we won't be seeing any coverage on TV.

Re: A Thread for Random Musings If you're going to write a report on the Olympic swimming events, make sure you word it properly. Right: They're doing the breast stroke. Wrong: They're breast stroking.
