I really hope the opening ceremonies for the Olympics is just one rosy cheeked 60 something Russian man explaining the history of Russia at a table as he gets progressively more drunk. I'd be an honest representation of modern Russia at least

USA dude fails miserably in biathlon, what a shock. You'd think we'd be good at a sport with guns.

Bah, proud USA doesn't do well with lovely little .22 bullets. Give us giant anti-tank guns, and we'll show you how real men win ski-shoot-a-thons

The Olympics have always had weird ideas on what sports should be counted. IE: Baseball and Cricket are not Olympic sports, but basketball is.

I was about to make a joke about how baseball and cricket are boring as gently caress but I just watched a bunch of dutch people skate around in a circle for an hour sooo i dunno anymore.

Explain American football then mister smarty pants!

It would be kind of disingenuous to just give the USA all three medals. Canada would come in a close fourth though.

It's something called a flush door which tends not to get used in US housing since it's a lovely design.

Seriously though. Try carving in slushy bullshit snow. It's the worst. If you hesitate on your turn for a second you lose control.
