WTF?: OLYMPIC EDITION

My hat is off to the London Organizing Committee.  In their preparations for the 2012 Summer Olympic Games, these people from the great nation that gave the world James Bond and the Beatles have really outdone themselves in the mascot department.  Wenlock and Mandeville (pictured above) are probably (if you'll pardon my français) the most douchetastic mascots in the history of mascotery.  These guys (or gals, or... whatever) make the smurfs look cool.  And that ain't easy.

Paul,
No idea if there's a connection. That's an interesting site. I'd never heard of that group before.
