Great integration into that meme
Why not show the gold medalists… Seeing as most never saw them, and they’ve got zero publicity compared to others.
Because the Olympics aren’t good for anything but ruining nations and memes.
Are they not the people with steampunk glasses in the memes?
Nope, it was Serbia’s Damir Mikec and Zorana Arunovic.
Damir Mikec’s eye wear looked more like something made from lego technic:
…and he’s gotten no love for having beaten all these meme based characters.
I feel like this is a great statment on how “meritocracy” works IRL
Because they’re inferior in the minds of many.
Silver almost best them with no equipment.
So Turks just like to shoot with their hands in their pockets, I guess?
They’re only allowed to use one hand, so the competitors always have their off hand tucked in or hooked onto their clothes so that arm can be relaxed and ignored.
Got it, I’m honestly just riffing off another comment I saw a day ago that mentioned his hand in his pocket, I didn’t know they all did it. 🤣
And the other one NOT giving a high five…!?
the real Mr and Mrs Smith
Bottom left he really looks like he hasn’t smiled in 20 years and the photographer told him to
Turkish Dirty Harry > Spring Break Predator
At first I thought he was a divorcee just trying to get his dog back but now that I know he’s a divorcee spending time with his daughter I like the story even more.
He is actually part of the turkish gendarmerie which is notorious for oppressing minorities in turkey
It’s almost like no one cares about the Olympics
It is mixed feelings about it. I don’t really care for it myself, and it puts countries in debt hosting them. There is always something that goes horribly wrong. I think every Olympic game, has had problems, small or huge.
Who is downvoting you? I wouldn’t think that Lemmy would be into athletics or patriotism.
