August 8, 20241 yr Saturday, looks like it's pretty short and contained. I'll say it out loud at the risk of sounding like the Boomer I am....Breakdancing is stupid and it being an olympic event is stupid. What's next? Parkour? Ultimate Tag? Frisbee Golf? Floor is lava?

August 8, 20241 yr It's dumb because it's another subjectively judged event. I wouldn't care if they added parkour, ultimate tag, frisbee golf, or floor is lava because those have objective measures of victory.

Shit I watch YouTube video on nutty parkour shit, I'd sure as hell watch it in the Olympics. I do not watch Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo videos on YouTube. Edited August 9, 20241 yr by BurntEyes

August 9, 20241 yr This bullshit is a precursor to adding a Talent Contest to the Olympics. Cannot be any worse than the bullshit posted above.
August 9, 20241 yr Wait...we have underwater dancing and gymnastics floor dancing with a twirly thing. I guess this bullshit was inevitable.
August 9, 20241 yr Wait for men breakdancing. There are so names I recognize. Japan and SK are dominant in breakdancing.

Because that was the person doing the funny "what my nephew does when he says watch" and then someone said "wait until the men go", so I haz confuse. If it was a woman, it would be less funny and more understandable. But I honestly can't discern based on visual physiognomy (NTTAWWT). I thought I detected both make-up and an adams apple (again, NTTAWWT), but the chest part of the shirt is a total optical illusion for trying to determine breasts.

August 9, 20241 yr OK, had to look. I was wrong. This is so stupid it cannot even make it to the X Games. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7Tr3oIX_LU
August 9, 20241 yr When I see a breakdancer in action, I can't shake the feeling that I'm supposed to throw newspapers at them.

August 9, 20241 yr The Olympic committee is going to fuck around until we have yell leading in the 2032 games.
August 9, 20241 yr Best part of what I posted is the dumbass spectator really into it. He paid for those tickets and is excited. Dumbass.

August 10, 20241 yr I can see why this is a one time thing and not going to be part of 2028 or 2032 at least.... I don't see it returning.

PhD holding professor in whatever the fuck and gets into the Olympics as a 36 year old competing against teens and she shows up in a Beverly Goldberg track suit. With a hat. I felt bad at first until I realized she was flipping off the entire world. Peak surly.
August 10, 20241 yr This is going to be the greatest spectacle in 4 years in LAprime time live? I’m in
August 10, 20241 yr My family and friends make fun of me because I can't watch The Office, Curb Your Enthusiasm, It's always Sunny, or Punk'd. . I just get too uncomfortable watching other people in cringey situations. That's how I felt yesterday trying to watch this stuff. Couldn't do it.

Good breakdancing with dynamic, kinetic moves is fun to watch. I caught some of the Olympics competition, not just the embarassing Aussie intersectional gender studies woman, and it was low quality. Like when USA basketball sent college players instead of the Dream Team.
