    Did a wiki of PLA, sounds scary. But then, I kinda enjoy their propaganda posters, look funny as all faces, be it women or men, look like Mao.

    Why is it lame? I think they look great with the minimalist look and are very unique.

    While I do appreciate that it spells out Bei Jing Huan Ying Ni (Beijing welcomes you,) I really am scared to see what they look like. China has a bad track record when it comes to mascots. :lol

    Oh and another thing I'm fearing? The opening ceremony. I have a feeling that they're going to somehow incorporate modern Peking Opera into it. If they do, I am putting the tv on mute.

    Also, I can picture the lines of little children with caked on makeup with their fake smiles screaming "HUAN YING! HUAN YING!"
