You’re cute.

AAAAHAAAHAAAHAAAHAAAHAAAAAAA!!!!!!!

This is a most excellent comment.

I mean....Fu Manchu was a horrifically racist character in a series of novels by a British author. So....you’ve sort of gone 360 degrees through the history of colonialism, ending up at an assimilated Chinese-American mishmash?

Yes. Might not be good! But perfectly fair.

That’s fair!

Irish-Americans are not really a marginalized group, you know.

Depends on what your culture is, and who you are (in a socioeconomic sense).

Just a guess, but because fathers who wonder about their son’s dick size are transparently and pathetically transferring their own ridiculous size hang-ups onto their children?

Also up in our shit: that NFL commercial “supporting” the Olympic team. SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP NFL CAN’T YOU KEEP QUIET FOR TWO WEEKS???

There is a lot going on here, and it’s all very messy, and by this point everyone has their own suppositions...but the important thing to remember is that we never would have heard a word about this if Ryan Lochte hadn’t told his mother.

Clueless.

Why would the BBC report at all on a Chinese woman winning a silver medal? Do they have individual stories on all medal winners, gold, silver, and bronze? Do they even do that for British medal winners?

Whatever you do, don’t point out self-conscious use of Britishisms to twentysomething bloggers. THEY DO NOT REACT WELL.

I’ve always been generally athletic and good or decent at most sports, with two exceptions: 1) bowling; and 2) fishing. The last time I fished, which was in high school a looooong time ago, I hooked myself in the head.

When I was like ten years old, I got an “I Tried” trophy at a summer bowling camp. True.

Obviously the New Zealand player was distracted by his man-bun.

Man, do I hate NBC’s delayed coverage. Might as well go to bed. Or maybe watch some wrestling. I hear it’s a new era on Smackdown.

A braggadocia is not a female braggadocio. A braggadocio is not a person but an attitude.

YES. HANDBALL IS AMAZING.
