Olympic Posters

On the 10 o’clock news last night caught a glimpse of the new posters that will be displayed  (around the country I assume) and thought that it was a display of childrens efforts to win some sort of prize.

Alas, no,

Two berks on this mornings news were asked to explain what they represented, the two newscasters could not keep straight faces, as these two artistic"twonks"  (curtsey of scouse, I hope I am not infringing copyright) tried to explain their interpretation of them, I got the impression that they were talking to a class of 5yr olds.

It then transpires that these doodlings were commissioned to professional artists.

As I have stated previously all that money to the arts,
and these numpty artistic types still cannot draw pictures that the average guy/gal can relate to.

Moan over, have a nice day.

Never say a humorous thing to a man who does not possess humour. He will always use it in evidence against you.

Hhhmmm!!!!

Don, I assume that you are referring to the ’block man’ type logo?!

There has been contention and indeed anger relating to this rubbish since it was first shown to the public a couple of years ago or more!
I totally agree. It is a disgrace and is presumably that which is being used for the 2012 version of Make Britain look bloody stupid. There is something new every year because I am sure that this is how our incompetent administrations think that the rest of world wants to see......as total cretins...and who are they to upset the rest of the world by making Britain look normal, at the very least??!!
