When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

Unironically, curling and ski jumping are so goddamn awesome I don't even know why we bother having other events.

I'm never bummed about any olympics because I get to watch a bunch of sports that don't normally get TV coverage

You seriously have issues.

Go catch more racoons in a net and step away from the computer.

Biathlon is the best event.

Also, they need to bring back ski ballet:

Have you actually curled before? If you think you can do it, you're probably right. It's not easy, but it's easy to learn, and if you're near a major city, you can probably find a club near you to try it out when the season starts in the fall.

it looks like som thing that could easily be done while holding a beer in your off hand and i imagine it's fun to play when you're drunk. been staring out the window contemplating alcohol and curling when mixed. just saw a bird.

watched some women's power lifting, some men's and women's 3x3 basketball and some women's soccer today. made me realize that none of those are curling and I probably couldn't compete in any of those events. except the 3x3 basketball. those guys looked terrible, like ymca pickup game caliber. only I'm pretty sure I couldn't hold a beer in one hand and play 3x3 like I could do if I was curling.

I appreciate curling because it keeps my hopes alive of plausibly being an Olympian one day.

Commonwealth Games. I know this because I had similar thoughts to OP about lawn bowling when watching the last Commonwealth Games.
