The Vancouver Idiot: Proposed Olympic Mascots

These might not make the cut to be Olympic Mascots though my son already has a Sticky and Roley doll set. He stepped on Sticky and we had to rush him to emergency. Roley only scratched the paint off our car door before spitting on the windshield.

My Sissy Ideas:

1. Earth, Water, Fire and Wind.
Because the elements are what makes Vancouver great. You can swim in the ocean, golf on a world class course and go skiing all in one day. That's awesome, I love this place!

2. Sequoia and Cedar.
Two happy go lucky trees because trees make the province so wonderful.

3. Spirit and Cinnamon. Calgary did bears for their games and we should too. For spirit bears and other bears that are all different shades of brown.

I think these could be a contender...if not though I have some backups after the link:

Less thought went into these names and descriptions. Really, if I had any artistic talent or opposable thumbs I would have tried to hash out some images.

Sticky and Roley
Sticky the used hypodermic needle and Roley the 3 wheeled Safeway shopping cart. They SCREAM Vancouver!

Stabby and Shootey
Night Club regulars that welcome tourists with loving gang symbols

Beggy and Stealy
Vancouver residents that make you realize how happy you are this Olympic budget wasn't spent on Social Services or our justice system.

Wacky and Jim
These ex-Riverview patients will tell you to die, but they don't mean it, they're just crazy, for Vancouver!!

Tobiko and Egg Roll
These two symbolize the Multi Cultural harmony that is Vancouver, look out for their zany cousin Taco.

Rainsong and Lilith
This crazy duo doesn't work or contribute to society but they will be the first on the scene of a protest and don't care it took a gaggle of Cops away from real crimes.

Stinky and Speedy
Stinky is a pot advocate and Speedy is a Meth Addict. The best part is they are both 16 so they are a lively bunch.

Scratchy: the open sored crack head on my corner. He used to be called Toothy, until they all fell out. He'd be a good mascot for the city!

here is my idea... we should have a big red circle with a line through it...it represents all the people that didn't want the fucking olympics here in the first place...or have a ten dollar bill with wings flying away to represent all the money the city and its taxpayers are going to lose
