The Olympics is brilliant, you watch physically glorious humans whilst sat on your sofa, covered in crisps, screaming GO ON BE BETTER

My favorite thing about the Olympics is the expertise everyone suddenly has for diving.

Some gymnastics dude on TV just perfectly landed a triple lindy, and I can't even stand up from pooping without falling forward.

Watching Olympics proves I shouldn't be on a jury cause it only takes 30 seconds of back story for me to root for someone unconditionally

A 41 year old gymnast is competing in her 7th Olympics. I just texted my son and offered him $5 to come downstairs and hand me the remote.

In the horse stuff in the Olympics, do the horses get medals? They should get big medals on massive ribbons that go round their necks.

Would someone go to the kitchen and bring me some Doritos? I'm busy yelling at world class Olympic athletes to swim faster.

Thank goodness the commenter pointed out that the athletes came to the Olympics to win. Cleared up a lot of confusion for me.

McDonalds is an official sponsor of the Olympics, which is why I think Ronald McDonald should be putting the medals around athletes' necks.

If only there was an event at the #Olympics where you dive into a pool of lime green @HartleysJelly! Oh, hang on… pic.twitter.com/LEdye5Idhb

I'm guessing 20 years from now, there will be no more medals at the Olympics and everyone will get a gold star so no one has hurt feelings.

There is a 41 year female gymnast in her 7th Olympics. The only thing I've been doing that long is watching Cops.

if the olympics had better organisational skills the torch would already be lit and they wouldn't need to run it in at the last minute.

Everyone competing in the Olympics should be on steroids. That way we get to see everyone at their best & absolute angriest.

I love when Olympics announcers create "bad boy" back stories for athletes like theyre not all obsessed nerds who just practice all day
