I'm french and like many people here, watched the ceremony out of pure spite. Was I surprised? No. Fucking annihilated.
It had EVERYTHING:
- Random kids carrying the flame
- Gays.
- French cancan't
- Furries
- Lady Gaga???
- Craftspeople and public workers
- Bloodshed, cannons and a metal band
- Masked genderless silhouette parkouring their way through the whole mess
- More gays
- Polyamory
- Non-binary dancers and actors
- POC dancers and actors
- Disabled dancers and actors
- Whatever the fuck was going on with those poles
- Lesbian kiss?
- France's most hated rapper singing a song written entirely in slang in front of THE FUCKING INSTITUTE DEDICATED TO THE FRENCH LANGUAGE?
- Her being accompanied by the National Guard orchestra.
- Gays. SO MANY gays.
- MINIONS???
- Hundreds of top quality instruments getting fucked up by the rain.
- Drag queens, opera dancers, fashion designers and...oh, yeah, Alsace.
- National icon Philippe Katherine but make it blue
- 100 years long horse ride
- Damn that armor's looking fine
- Giant balloon ascending to the sky and...just fucking staying there cause they had nowhere to put it
-Did I tell you about the gays?
Holy fuck.
I'm flabbergasted. I'm bamboozled. I'm lying dead on the ground, holding my last breath.
I mean yes, it was funny. Yes, it was strange. Yes, it gave France a super weird reputation.
BUT DO YOU REALISE THAT THE DESIGN COMMITTEE JUST SAW THE RISE OF OUR EXTREME CONSERVATIVE PARTY AND DECIDED TO THROW A MASSIVE "FUCK YOU" AT THEM???
I think I'm in love. Call me french in training.
