2. ME!

My only source of amusement related to the Olympics of any year involved my mom's one-time fascination with Greg Louganis.

8. No desire at all to watch them.

Though I admit, while clicking through this weekend, I was oddly drawn in by a round of women's badminton.

One of the housemates is, though. So I see bits and pieces as I walk through the den.

10. Me!

I'm sick of the corporatism, commercialism, authoritarianism and douchebag politics that have become associated with the Olympics. I'm done. I'm not watching.

13. Not watching... though i usually do

I just don't feel like we should be supporting this, so i am making it a point not to watch any of the events, nor to read any of the coverage either in online news articles or in the papers.

This is weird for me, too, because i am usually an Olympics geek.

14. I'm skipping it this year.

Not excited about watching the world's best athletes punish themselves by competing in pea soup-thick pollution.

Not a fun image.

21. Nope, I'll recognize the Olympic Committee

when the 1972 US Basketball team is awarded the Gold medals they were swindled out of.
