I was thinking of what to write this week, and I started to think about the mascots for London's 2012 Olympic games. They are really weird, really off-the-wall.

The mascots are these two, one-eyed things named Wenlock and Mandeville. Their backstory is that they were supposedly made from pieces of scrap metal from London's Olympic stadium. They are just weird-looking, with the eye taking up all of the space on the face, and only two fingers on each hand.
