What did you expect when the logo for the games can be mistaken for Lisa Simpson giving a blowjob?

"It's the Olympic event that makes you wonder if you need a drugs test! It's roots go back to the original games....in fact the word 'mascot' is thought to derive from the ancient Greek term meaning 'overpriced novelty'"

People are gonna think im crazy but i quite like them now. As giant mascot suits they suck but as cartoon, animated characters, i think they look ok and they will appeal to kids! I like the little modern touches they've tried to incoperate, they're a little crazy and different yes but surely thats a good thing? Its better than a random animal just wearing a shity 2012 T-shirt. Thats my view anyway.
