While the world’s athletes limber up at the Olympic Park, Londoners are practicing some of their own favorite sports: complaining, expecting the worst and cursing the authorities.
Asked “What do you feel about the Olympics?” the other day, a random
sampling of people here gave answers that included bitter laughter; the
words “fiasco,” “disaster” and “police state”; and detailed explanations
of how they usually get to work, how that is no longer possible and how
very unhappy that makes them.
