Goth Olympics?

[liljrockbunny]

Currently watching Badminton on the Olympics. Anyone else as tickled as I am with the pairing Eva Li (US) vs. Anne Rice (Canada).

[graverobber]

? There's a Shuttlecock in my Drunkminton?

dang it, I shouldn't have broken my television, that way I could know what you're talking about

*goes inside to attempt building a makeshift antenna*

I'm not much into sports, but love the Olympics!

Yeah, I saw him talking to Putin a lot. The announcers were like "probably talking about that opening drum number." And I'm thinking "Uh.....noooo, probably talking about that whole war-with-Georgia thing."

Tivo makes watching swimming much more efficient

I love watching the womens gymnastics. I hope we get gold.

Oh, I totally thought this was going to be a different topic...like what the events would be if goths had Olypics.

Looking Sad

Eyeliner Application

Duct tape dress construction

Chain smoking

The usual...

Let the goth games begin!

And then all the lights would go out...

I'd go.

Edited to add: And I would rock your little world in eyeliner application (unless Brenda was in the competition...then i'd get silver)

Not a bad idea. I say go ahead and hijack the thread. I am sure she would approve (she my bunny).

I'll enter into any of those but the duct tape dress...not my mojo...but CHAIN SMOKING is mine! GOLD straight up!

I would also like to compete in the following:

Morose Prose

Terrible Gothic Poetry

Synth-Arrpigiation & Knob Turning

Jager shots with straight face

& Dancing (like a wilting flower or the emotion of sadness)

Hmmm...the jager shots sounds more like a Winter sport...but the rest are in.

I think the Russians would OWN the morose prose sport...they already do, really. Good coaching and all.

I imagine the eyeliner application would really be part of a larger sport, sort of like a relay race. Pleather-pants-putting on (time trial, obviously), shirt shredding and safety pinning (speed and style are important here) and then of course the eyeliner application (all style, no substance. Think of it as the ice dancing of the goth Olymipcs.)

And I've decided that medals wouldn't work at all...I mean, seriously, what goes with bronze? A whole lot of nuthin.

1st place: bottle of absinthe

2nd place: black rose

3rd place: Chain mail overalls (third place is SO lame)

okay, if you want to play goth olympics it's easy, just submit your name, sport, who you will be representing, and what makes you uniquely qualified to win this sport.

And, GO!!!!

LOL! Love the prizes. When I saw the title of this thread, I was thinking you guys were going to find some "unique sports" for the goth Olympics. I had a few thoughts of my own.

1.) Team goth Dancing - like those "precision" teams, only more evil because the team has to dance & make formations just like a precision team. In this case, it would be formations like crosses, etc. Aerial flips & hand implements like swords & spears would be allowed!

2.) Blood drinking - the one who downs the most blood the fastest without throwing up wins!

3.) Howling at the moon - Judged on a scale from 1 to 10 - the best howl wins!

4.) Running from the cops - everyone runs until a cop catches them, then they are DQ'd. The last one still running wins.

Also, in terms of prizes, a bouquet of black roses could be given to each of the winners on the podium. Methinks one of the prizes (most likely 2nd place) should be something made out of Sterling Silver. Maybe a Silver chalice? LOL.

Don't forget about staring contests...

[Rev.Reverence]

Did we get WHINING & BITCHING as events?

& causing a DRAMATIC DEBACHLE?

[Rev.Reverence]

Don't forget about staring contests...

Too right!

*stares at phee*

*Stares at shoes*

[Rev.Reverence]

*Stares at shoes*

I win!

Don't you know the way to become goth instantly at any moment is to simply with no emotion stare at a spot on the floor?

That is called WITHDRAWAL...& it is not only GOTHS that do it...Look around a Mental ward.
