These retina display Macs - can you turn the resolution down on them? If not, don't they make designing things for a normal computer screen rather difficult?

Anyway, in Ooooooh Olympics news, it seems everybody and his dog is taking the opportunity to strike during the games, who would of thought that!
It's not like there is anything on TV they might want to watch instead of being in work...

Make the country look a set of cunts..

Well it is here, might as well make the most of it..

It is though.

Should be spending the money on anything but a fucking glorified sports day. It's all about the big corporations now anyway.

Fucking. Farce.

(Today Show) Presenter Evan Davis asked Lord Coe whether he could, for example, attend an Olympic event wearing a Pepsi t-shirt.

"No, you probably would not be walking in with a Pepsi T-shirt because Coca-Cola are our sponsors," he replied, adding that Coca-Cola had invested millions of pounds both in the Games and grass-roots sport.

In an increasingly testy exchange, the BBC presenter then quizzed Lord Coe on whether he could "go in with Nike trainers on?".

"I think you probably could...Lets sort of put some reality in this. You probably would be able to walk through with Nike trainers. Does that satisfy you?"

After Mr Davis said that it didn't but that he intended to move onto another subject, Lord Coe told the BBC presenter "keep going Evan, we will get here eventually?"

Jesus, when was that one written? "Yuppie"? Has that re-entered common parlance, then?

What was that about Britain looking a bunch of cunts? This whole event has been put together by one.

Put some reality into this? With people being threatened for showing their support to Team GB without permission, 'brand police', ZiL lanes and missile launchers on rooftops?

I would love to understand why if McDonalds and Cocoa Cola invested so many millions the ticket still cost so much?

Didn't the sponsors supply 700m or something?

Something like that, yes. For that, they get about half of the tickets for the Games. Every Adidas employee in the UK got to apply for two free tickets to any event of their choice. So that cuts off another potential revenue stream for LOCOG.

Saw the torch relay this morning, from the top of a bus while trying to get to work. It's really quite embarassing that 80% of the procession is the Samsung/Coke/Lloyds TSB buses. Other than that, there were a lot of people turned out to cheer it on, which was nice.

Those plastic frisbee things that Coke hand to kids? Called "Beat pads". Someone is going to hell for that.

Edit: It isn't a truck. It is "The Coca-Cola Beat Bus".

I think I've seen that website. Don't they plant some pornstar on a corner, drive around the block and pretend to pick her up and convince her to suck some dude's greasy cock before dumping her at the side of the road and throwing some fake money in her face?

I'm getting quite excited now. There's a definite buzz about.

Absolutely. I was out in canary wharf last night, and the atmosphere was fantastic

hard to tell if serious.

Serious. The general populous of Canary Wharf was also, on average, fucking beautiful. I fell in love with our waitress.

Absolutely. I swear that when the sun comes out in the Wharf, they load all the women up onto buses, ship them off somewhere else, and all the trannies mince out of their boardrooms.
