Cheers to Boston.com and Getty Images for putting together this remarkable gallery of the women's fencing competition in Beijing. Rule of thumb: huge-ass pictures make even the boring Olympic sports look dramatic and cool.
Some of the better photos are thumbnailed below, and just to make things interesting I've included a couple Photoshops from Something Awful's compilation on how to spice up the Olympics. See if you can spot the fakes. Hint: if you guessed the one where the fencers are wearing stilts on a high-wire during a lightning storm with a jumbo jet closing in on them… I'm sorry, that's incorrect. That's an actual photo of the event. At least that's what the Chinese government told me.

I would show those Italian chicks my sword and then let them swallow it.
"You seem a decent woman, I hate to kill you."
"You seem a decent woman. Let's make out."
@UU
Man, you're killin us over here, man. 'Stuff white people like!'
Bravo, Sir.
I watched this event. They REALLY get into it.
Is the bikini fencing tonight?
@t3minator, I try to do my best.
Those outfits look complicated…what do they do when they have to take epee?
@WYDA, good point. Those outfits would probably foil their attempt to piss.
"My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father prepare to die."
FUCK! I'm getting really bad at not reading the post before I comment.
Mmmmm…. Margherita.
@UU: Also, you definitely shouldn't be drunk when dueling. Better if you stay clean and sabre.

@UU & WDYA: if you guys keep this up, I'm going to feint.
Boy, that joke was lamé.
Has anyone seen a man with six fingers?
Alright biting on your medal looks fucking stupid. It was funny the first time, but now you just look like a retard.
@WAS, WDYA, I wonder if their favorite hockey team is the Sabres
I may be on the fence about wether or not I'd like to bang those girls.
HIGH 5!
@UU, WAS, Pauly: If any of them are experts en garde-ning, I need some advice on planting strawparrys.
Antonio Alfonseca was seen running from the fencing venue as fast as he can.
…aaaand he's already out of breath.
Great now pull Andre the Giant out of his grave and we got ourselves a crappy sequel.
you win WDYA
@UU: Then why do I feel like such a loser?
I want to play the pun game, but I'm out of s words.
