…. on which one of these is the most pointless activity in the world:

(1) Curling, wherein a group of numnuts frantically brush an ice rink in hopes of stopping a puck in a specific area, or
(2) Synchronized swimming, wherein, well, …I honestly dont even know what happens. Something about an interpretive dance being conducted underwater.

Both of these are Olympic Sports. And I can’t decide which one is more ridiculous. Might you weigh in?

    I’m no fella BUT I’d love to comment on my hatred for curling especially as an Olympic “sport”…hardly being a sport at all, I can barely force myself to choke out “curling” and “Olympics” in the same sentence. I refuse to attempt to “curl” on account of I hate daily chores such as sweeping, and I can’t stand being on ice without wearing skates… why anyone would want to combine the 2 is completely beyond me…. anything that is able to combine the terms “powerful sweep, eye on the hog, rock, burning the stone” etc. has GOT to be a joke..a sick 16th century joke and frankly I’m still waiting for the Olympics to say “You’ve been punked” – that is the day things will make a little more sense to me.

    Curling is pointless. Curling and Synchronized swimming are for people who didn’t want to do real sports like swimming, football and hockey

    Curling, without a doubt.
