The US women's curling team is a favorite to medal. The men's curling team look good but likely will not medal, the men's event is very competitive. The men's team is skipped by the same person (John Schuster) who skipped the 2010 team (and caught a lot of flack for some poor play).

Figure skating hasn't been interesting since Tanya Harding went all crazy on Nancy Kerrigan.
Let's examine all the sports for watchability:
Alpine Skiing - only if they crash Biathlon - boring but at least they have guns and shoot stuff Bobsledding - worth watching if Jamaica is around Cross-Country Skiing - skiing in a circle for hours? boring Curling - BEST GODDAMN WINTER EVENT EVAR Figure Skating - boring Freestyle Skiing - boring Ice Hockey - 2nd best event to watch at the winter olympics Luge - boring Nordic Combined - boring Short Track Speed Skating - boring Skeleton - boring Ski Jumping - boring Snowboarding - mostly boring Speed Skating - the only reason we keep Apollo Ono around, still boring Team Figure Skating - lame AND boring Women's Ski Jumping - still boring Mixed Relay Biathlon - boring Ski Half-Pipe - boring Team Relay Luge - boring Ski Slopestyle - new to Olympics, could be worth watching Snowboard Slopestyle - new to Olympics, could be worth watching Snowboard Parallel Special Slalom - new to Olympics, could be worth watching 1/14/2014 8:05:20 AM |

Sayer is a hater of winter Olympics.
all of those events are worth watching except for biathlon and cross country.
half pipe, slope style, jumping, and downhill are awesome.
Curling, I agree, is the best.
Bobsledding doesn't need Jamaica to be cool (although their two man team did qualify this year), luge, skeleton, etc. are also pretty gnarly.
I'll even admit I enjoy figure skating and the pairs are kinda lame but the teamwork and what they put into it for years for it all to come down to this is pretty cool.

Is one perhaps a bidet? Because, you know, that would make sense.
nvm. Apparently, they have communal toilets elsewhere in Russia: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-25830617

^^ bidet?
Bidets don't look 100% identical to toilet seats.
So how does that toilet work? If there are 2 in each cubicle, that means you can't lock it? If you can't lock it, when the place is full, people will be opening and poking their head in to check if there is a free one or not?
That's fucking stupid, not to mention, seeing, hearing, and smelling someone poop in an enclosed space a meter half a meter from you.
