The official mascots of this year’s Games are, to be blunt, creatures of nightmare. I’ve done this post as a public service. Monsters belong in monster movies, not out and about scaring small children in our streets and stadia. Sleep well everyone.

THAT’s the mascot? What, are they extending an invite to future next games to the one-eyed, Dental Heads from the Andromeda galaxy or something? What ever happened to people dressed up in cute bear costumes?
I know! You see why I had to do a post. They’re horrible, and they’re everywhere. You can even buy soft toys of them :(
I saw a chocolate version of the what I call Olympic penis faced alien (no idea why i do that) which started my Olympics rage all over again.
