It was definitely a fun watch. The emoji movie on the other hand 😬

Reminds me of going to Walmart and getting a free 30 dollar bike basket. The register person assumed it was my 'bag' cause I had the other stuff I was buying inside of it and didn't scan it, they just passed it to the other side and chucked my stuff in there.

Also apparently their surveillance is so top notch that they help train police departments and stuff on the tech.

The Lego movie?

I'm not saying minecraft is gonna be a good movie but people also talked shit about Lego until it came out.

Yep I've said it plenty. There's no undecideds, just conservatives, centrists and wilfully ignorant people too afraid to publicly admit they're Republicans.

Admitting you're wrong is also pretty manly. Good shit brother.

Lul that dude is telling on himself for his level of hygiene. As someone with a foreskin I keep mine extremely clean, if I'm at home I even rinse and dry after peeing. Also, some girls are Into foreskin.

Sorry to break it to you but it factually IS about originality. That's one of the categories the judges for this sport specifically rate on according to the olympics, or should at least, it's obvious they didn't in this instance.

Here's some sites that specify originality is one of their 5 scoring categories.

And your comment is why I lost respect for those judges who probably agree with you.

You're letting her previous performances color your opinion of what should be a fair and unbiased judging of this one performance and this one category in a vacuum. It's originality, she was more original in her performance than a lot of other breakers, regardless of her skill (which is a separate category they rate on). I would have hoped she would have scored at least a couple of points there and just 0s on all the other categories.

I agree with your BM comment though.

I agree that notoriety shouldn't necessarily be considered the same as accomplishment but here we are lul. I'm willing to bet she's inadvertently pushed breakdancing people to greater hights inspite of/to spite her lul. Yea Phil is great.

Reminds me of poreotix in ABDC. Except they were good lul.

What's your take on the judges not awarding points for originality? I'm not saying her moves were good but they were definitely original. Some of her moves nobody else did at the Olympics at all. I would have guessed she should at least get a couple of points for that, it honestly made me lose respect for those judges. What's the point of having categories you score on if you're gonna let other categories influence the score you give on certain ones.
