Curling

The ancient Scottish sport of curling has been called a hybrid of bowling and chess set on ice, but perhaps the closest analogy is shuffleboard. Two four-member teams slide 42-pound granite stones (the best of which come from a single quarry in Scotland) on a sheet of ice toward a target area. Teammates sweep the ice in front of the stone to help maneuver it towards the center target.
Each player on the team throws two stones during an "end," which is sort of like an inning in baseball. The team with the most points after 8 or 10 ends wins the match. Did I mention that you can knock your opponents' stones out of contention?

The name "curling" comes from the Old English verb "to curr," or growl. There's a fair amount of shouting during the game, as team members urge each other on while sweeping the ice in front of the stone.

This year, the British women's team gave their country its first Winter Olympics gold medal since 1984, while the Norwegian men's team upset the Canadian favorites.

Curling looks like a lot of fun, I wonder where I could try it in my area?

Awkward Curbiness

The awkward feeling that you get waiting at a curb for someone to pick you up, with other cars going by.

This morning I experienced awkward curbiness when I had to wait for a friend at a curb who was half an hour late! I felt so awkward with all the cars passing by!

Curling

Unlike what the other asshole said,a curling game consists of two four player teams, and the object is to have your rock the closest to the pin after sliding it from one end of the ice to the other, the skip tells the sweepers to sweep or not to sweep, and sweeping drags the rock further, and holds line. Curling is a game of skill, and accuracy and most games are won by centimetres. And by the way, The united states have a mens team, a womens, team, a junior mens team, and a junior womens team, You ignorant fuckhead, to think that someone can actually criticise a sport that they know absolutely nothing about, bravo dickhead you just embarrassed your country by being such a fuckoff.

Wow this guy is a real ignorant fuckhead! He cant even give a proper definition for curling!
