The Olympic Torch Shaped Like a Joint

By now most of us have seen the new torch that will be ran through out Canada. I think that it was purposely created by the designers, because lets think of Phelps the God in swimming sucking on a bong. That brought a lot of publicity to him, and since people relate him to the Olympics people became interested (yes, even though it was already over).

The designers probably thought “If he can do it we can too,” so imagine the people who smoke the weed see the torch being carried into that stadium they’ll think things like “Dude, this looks cool even the fire torch is cool, dude lets go bob sledding.”

The plan actually was to create a modern version of the beauty of skii’s marks on the “lush beautiful Canadian snow.”

The designers say they in no way meant to show that people would take it in the way that this looks like a joint. But I know myself, and others who beg to differ. In my opinion I feel like they did this on purpose so they could have a more broad range of people watching. And now that they are stirring up conterversity, people will watch the opening ceremony just to see the torch, which all boils down to in the end, more money for Vancover and Canada.
