sensational
Over these past few days I've been hearing a lot of 'absolutely sensational' on TV. When the BBC presenters use this word it usually doesn't apply to the Britons. Instead they immediately do an interview of the poor losers (close shot, you can still see them still in tears)--can these reporters be anymore thoughtless? Then of course they can't be talking about the Taiwanese, cos a) Most of the people in UK don't know what a baseball looks like. b) After a 0-7 against Canada, I'm quite glad that they didn't broadcast the games. Though beating the Aussies today is something to be cheery about, but I don't think the Australians know what a baseball bat looks like either. That is why I'm advertising myself as Chinese when children from across the strait are winning medals again and again. Yet 'sensational' is most apt to describe men in the pool. I've googled Thorpe and Phelps, and learnt that one likes Kylie Minogue, and the other likes DMX. *swoon*
