[semosk8tfan]

Ouch that looked painful.

Why not married

...because they're brother and sis

oh, I just got it. Haha god i need sleep

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

Whats with the British announcer in da house y'all? If we're bringing in special guests why not the Barcelona GPF guy :yes:

When a skater(s) repeats a program I expect an excellent performance and this did not happen here

 

[MIM]

Tarah and Danny
It is painful to watch both of them fall on SBS jump. Shaky setup and landing on the throw.. But in-betweens are really nice.

well in my part of the world, not too far from where ancientpeas is but still completely not on the same page with marriage laws, spouses keep their birth names... explains why Francis for instance uses both his parents name... also.. it has to be said that in Quebec, people don't get married much anymore...

Why not married

 

[Crossover]

Ah................very fast and totally off-synchronized.

 

[Tastetherainbow]

Seems like the only pairs that went clean today are the Chinese and the German pair... lackluster start

 

[Arriba627]

Darn - don't know what's up with their SBS jumps lately. They had a tough time at Sk Am too.

 

[bobbob]

What was the pun? Definitely not intended, seeing as I can't even figure out what it was, bahahaha.

haha I meant like second place and freaking out at this second in time

 

[Krunchii]

At CoC they did a lot of overhead shots on the spins, here at NHK they tend to do overhead shots on the step sequences which is nice because it helps us see their speed and ice coverage.

Ok so the dude who sings "Take Me To Church" (Hozier? Is that how you spell it?) was on the radio a few years ago when the song first became popular, and he went on a spiel about how he wants to be "different" and "risqué" by recording this "extremely sexual song". Bro, do you even radio? Pretty well EVERY too 40 pop song making its rounds on the radio waves is about sex. I guess he doesn't get out of the house much.

I think I laughed for 48 hours straight after hearing him say that.

I basically looked like this emoji:

It's been so long.. even the Protopopovs used her unmarried name when they competed. Who was the last married team to share a last name in amateurs?

Hausch/Wende became Wende/Wende (and shortly after they retired)

Here it's not automatic anymore. You have to apply to change it to your husband's name.

At first I thought Zhang/Zhang were brother and sister and now with the Wangs (but they aren't, are they?)

 

[tinlizzie]

Very happy with the Chinese teams results in the SP!

And no wonder if it's anything like where I live. My friend was just complaining to me how she and her new husband ended up owing MORE in taxes after they got married than when they had been living in sin!

I'm still pretty proud of Peng/Jin for placing first Even if the lead is very small.

 

[4everchan]

unrelated... yet

Ah, okay. I forgot about them.
