"Without coffee I would never be Olympic champion." - @SifanHassan

I can so relate to the first 5 words of this quote. https://t.co/VEKmMZgPsh

The replay of Maggie Mac Neil squinting before realizing she won gold — because she doesn't wear contacts when she swims — makes me laugh every time I see it pic.twitter.com/vyYFSHam3C

The skateboarding in the Olympics is my favourite.
All the other athletes are ripped like fuck but these dudes turn up wearing baggy shorts & looking like they've been playing Fortnite for 10 hours.

The pivot from Olympic swimming on center stage to track and field is always like going from The Sound of Music to Reservoir Dogs.

i made a list of events. i think should be added. to the olympics

2. the 100m hardwood floor slide
9. least time between naps
3. walking on the opposite side of a tree. so your human has to switch the hand they are holding the leash with
6. floor routine. but it’s belly rubs

Me watching the Olympics: I reckon I could give that a good go.

Also me: Can’t stand up from sofa without sounding like a distressed cat. Spends 3 weeks taking painkillers for pain in neck after sleeping once at a slightly different angle. Trips over own feet just walking.

Can’t believe they allow farts as finishing moves in Judo now. Brutal. pic.twitter.com/KBgtVquUlI

olympics commentating in equestrian events is so funny. "that was careless on the horse's part" do you think the horse cares

— Jill Capewell (@capeybara) August 2, 2021

Just found out the plane that will take the equestrian’s horses to the Olympics is named Air Horse 1 and I can’t explain how happy that makes me.

They should combine some events at the Olympics. It would be great if the pole vaulters landed on a trampoline, bounced on to a horse, and galloped straight into some jousting.
