[DontCare4Free]

No, but I don't want any money I spend to go towards it. And I don't want it on my TV all the time. Or in the advertising.

[Man 2]

Personally I think it's just an excuse for any number of things.
>British people yelling at Americans for calling football "soccer"
>The world yelling at the Middle East for everything
>References to the 1972 Munich Olympics
>Feminist pride
>"Who the forget is that old guy playing piano?"
>The Royal Family
>The Royal wedding
>Companies hawking whatever stuff they're making nowadays
>A truckload of new memes
>Fake smiles and empty handshakes
>Oh yeah, and some sports too

Every single one except the last is a stereotype.

The olympics are a way for every country to show off their skills, and believe it or not immigration always goes up when a countries athlete wins a medal.
