10 Things To Look For At The Olympic Closing Ceremony [courtesy of Woot.com]

  • 200,000 pizzas sent to “Chinese Taipei”
  • Ceremonial lighting of the Tibetan monk
  • Entire crowd replaced by more photogenic stand-ins
  • New technology allows the "completely live" fireworks display to run backward
  • Everyone looks under their seat to find a gift bag containing a DVD copy of Watchmen, one of those cans of Coke in a different language, and a female child
  • Numerous mistakes by Chinese dancers (but no points deducted by judges)
  • Bela Karolyi given Andy Rooney’s old spot on 60 Minutes
  • One more silver medal awarded to Shawn Johnson, just to rub it in
  • Olympic hostesses return to their docking stations and power down
  • Everyone leaves satisfied but then somehow want another Olympics about fifteen minutes later
