yeah, modeling a mascot after a teletubby version of the tower of london was a bad idea.

Anything is better than their logo, which looks like Lisa Simpson performing fellatio:

you're very clever, but it's penises all the way down

[Careless]

So that's the kind of design you can buy for $1.2 million, eh?

Have you ever taken a Rorschach? I'll bet the results would be interesting.

 

But now that you mention it, yeah, I see it. And that's really funny.

Eh up, that's only one of two mascots. The other is a similar thing, but in blue instead of orange.

 

Kids went mad for it, by all accounts.

Britain's national tourism agency, VisitBritain, issued guidelines Wednesday on the etiquette of dealing with the hundreds of thousands of foreign visitors who will be coming to London for the 2012 Summer Olympics.

 

Belgians take offense at people snapping their fingers.

 

The French are notoriously picky in restaurants.

 

Australians are fond of coarse language.

 

Polish tourists are likely to be hurt by stereotypes that imply they drink excessively.

 

Don't be bossy with Middle Easterners.

 

Japanese consider prolonged eye contact impolite.

 

Indians are impatient and like to be quickly attended to. Indians also don't like being touched by strangers.

 

Brazilians don't like personal questions.

 

Chinese may find winking or pointing with an index finger rude, and may be unimpressed by landmarks just a few hundred years old.

 

With Mexicans, avoid discussing poverty, immigration, earthquakes or the Mexican-American war.

 

Canadians may be annoyed about being mistaken for Americans.

 

And Americans? They can appear "informal to the point of being very direct or even rude," the guide says, and they won't hesitate about complaining.

LOL.

 

I guess it's the American in me that sees that list, and suddenly feels an urge to try each of those out to see if they are true.

Trying all of those out on Londoners could be fun. 8-)
