Do You Like The New London Olympic Mascots?

Just curious...

London Olympics 2012: Meet Wenlock and Mandeville

Organisers have unveiled their mascots – creatures supposedly fashioned from droplets of steel used to build the stadium.

First thing that came to mind;
THEY'RE ADORABLE.




Now I'll play your ghost as my ace, whenever I'm led astray.
But I am actually good, can't help it if we're tilted.
I'm in my right place, don't be a downer.

nothing about the London olympics has worked out very well.
From their damn logo to that monstrosity they're going to place in front of the arena.
and now these...what the hell are they supposed to be? I read the article and I still can't figure out what they're supposed to be.

They're cute but the droplets of steel idea is a bit far fetched!




Stop thinking about what I want, what he wants, what your parents want. What do you want?

First impression is that they look like alien Teletubbies.

Not my thing, i'm afraid.

Mandeville's a pretty good name, just in general, but I think the mascots suck. If I was English I'd probably be peeved over how terrible they are, I'm sure.

They are kinda cute but weird.



See I cannot feel this, not matter how you try and in the real world, there's no goodbyes.
