time to burn some costumes

[Artemis]

It's cold today, I can do with the heat. ;)

Saw a couple of obvious (to me) choices during the CoC broadcast this weekend, both in the men's event.

Andrei Graizev's LP costume. "I'm not sure where I'm going after the event, either to an S&M bar or a Country & Western bar."

Stephane Lambiel's LP costume. "Well, totally-unrelated-to-the-program animal prints worked for Ilya in 98, so I thought I'd give it a try."

what is with the combination of animal print on blue?

And Tatiana Navka has another hideous headband...

Oh, I long ago gave up on commenting on ice dance costumes. 90% of them are ridiculous, IMO.

Yes, they're probably better referred to as "power net and dental floss ensembles" than as actual costumes...

Could someone please tell me what is going on in this site? I have been reading some threads and then I come back and they are deleted or missing. I can see some of them getting deleted because they were getting a little silly (but I actually found some of them amusing!) but I didn't think that some of them were that bad. What is going on? I must be going crazy!

The mods have been doing some troll extermination. ;) And usually even if only some of the troll's posts are offensive they all get deleted.

[pattersby]

what do you mean "troll"? I thought that they were dolls!

[Artemis]

"Troll" is a 'net term for people who make inflamatory posts for the sole purpose of riling people up and causing a ruckus. Think of the word "troll" in the fishing sense -- dragging a line with a hook on it to see who bites.

LOL - I see! Well these people certainly created some interesting discussions if nothing else!!!

I think the she needs to wrap the headband around her backside to cover up where her bloomers are lacking!
