Aw man, I remember watching the visually impaired alpine skiers four years ago. Blindly following a guide down a mountain? Serious cojones required.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

how do you think I ski?

well, let me rephrase, I've never been skiing. But if I did, that's how I would.

still blind, still need a guide at least at first to teach me that way before I take off with my powers to guide me.

I am a "hands on" sort of learner :P

[x-barrier.livejournal.com]

Well, congratulations, then. You've got cojones.

I'm a Latina from the barrio. Not like I know anything about skiing, blind or not.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

You're from New York and el barrio. You have cojones too. You don't have a choice.

So let's go skiing.

[x-barrier.livejournal.com]

That might be your worst idea ever.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

NEVER!

sounds like fun!

[x-barrier.livejournal.com]

...you know how many medical injuries are caused by skiing?

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

but it's FUN.

Are you too good to do what the rest of us have to do with the regular Olympics and stream the events online?

Besides, it's not like you can actually see the feats of athleticism on the TV anyways. So don't be an ass and hog the TV.

I still totally object to you making me be conscious at 3am for curling or hockey or whatever it was you were making me watch, that was inhumane.

[x-pryor.livejournal.com]

I didn't make you do anything. You slept through most of it anyways.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

how is wanting to watch the Paralympics in an accessible format that I can't get online being an ass and hogging the TV!?

I almost NEVER use the TV!

Share, Pryor.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

There's more than one TV, don't be a shit.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

....how is wanting to use the big TV for this being a shit!? I NEVER use the TV practically!

It's nearly a month away!

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Dude, there are like four big screen TVs. And big doesn't fricking matter for you and no one gets dibs for a week.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

I'm not going to be glued to the TV 24/7 Kyle! Holy hell, way to blow this way out of proportion here! I was excited. but way to pee on everything.

This is the first time it's really being broadcast in the USA, it's a big deal.

the big TV has better a sound system.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

One, I am going to hit you in the mouth for that comment, fucking uncool.

Two, dude. NO ONE gets the dibs the TV exclusively for anything that's more than one show at a time. You can be polite like the rest of us with special interests.

Three, no if you want a rocking sound system you actually hit the music room, or the rec room with the surround sound and not the 60 inch up in the movie room, so you basically know nothing Jon Snow.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

Bring it, Gibney. Because you do NOT get to call me names and stomp all over something I'm excited about because I didn't clarify every nuance of my TV usage choices a MONTH in advance!

FUCK YOU.

[x-hawkeye.livejournal.com]

Hey KGibz, you should help me build a ridiculously defensible igloo cause I'm thinking we should challenge people to a snowball fight of epic proportions.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

That means I gotta put shoes on.

[x-hawkeye.livejournal.com]

But strategic advantages!

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

SHOES.

[x-submariner.livejournal.com]

I'm in for complete snowball domination.

[x-hawkeye.livejournal.com]

Dibs - you're on my team. Me and Maddie and Kyle so far. The new doctor's opposing. She's all by herself for the moment, but other people will show up.

[x-submariner.livejournal.com]

Clint, I value our friendship and all, but I may have to defect if Dr. Reyes needs backup.
