    I avoid the visuals and haven't watched a stitch of coverage since the 80's. The Olympics can't be avoided entirely as for 2-3 weeks its all the media wants to talk about.

    A snowboarder(!!) will get tossed for smoking a joint but the Chinese orca in the pool goes undetected.

        It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

          When this happened to a Canadian snowboarder who won gold, he said he got it from second-hand smoke.

            Ah. Well, my TV consumption is almost exclusively HBOGO and Netflix right now, so I haven't had to ignore this whole Olympics thing. Online, I just scroll past stories with names I don't recognize.

              I don't even have that. My media exposure is entirely online and radio.

              This makes it easy to avoid the video but not the talk. Even Google is in on the hype with their daily doodles.

                  I've been inadvertently poisoned by drugs before.

                    If Google's doodles offend you, smoke more.

                      Offend would be a strong word. Annoy would be better.

                      I can't smoke more. I'm already maxxed out.

                        USA is expected to have the most golds and most overall medals. Suck it, China.

                            The men's diving, swimming, Graeco-roman wrestling, judo and gymnastics. And the cycling when they get off the bikes. Otherwise I have no interest in the whole shebang, despite having been able to hear the crowds with the living room windows open.

                            I shall be quite glad when all the fuss and nonsense is finished and life can go back to its usual course....

                                You think that was disturbing -

                                American Bronze medal rowing team - I assume the second from left is what is knows as the coxwain.
