Here is McKayla Maroney because… she showed up in some pictures for some event that had a really long name I didn’t understand. I think it had something to do with the Kid’s Choice awards? Maybe. I dunno. I am posting her basically because I think she is pretty and I find reactions to her (and really a lot of Olympic athletes) fascinating. First there are the dedicated fans of the sport. Gymnastics, figure skating, curling, whatever, these are marginal sports. They are not where most eyes are and most people know nothing about them but every 4 years they become the biggest eyeball grabbing sports in the world. Well, not curling but some of them. But there are people who follow these things not at the Olympics, you know, the 4 years in between they still care. I have found in my perusing of these things that a lot of these people are hyper critical dicks. Which I get, when you like a niche thing you kind of become protective and weird but one of the things I have read is that McKayla Maroney is lazy and out of shape. Which is mind blowing to me cause… she looks to be in better shape than most people I know and I am not sure how you can knock anyone for being lazy who put in the kind of work required to be an Olympic athlete before 18. Like, seriously, these are people who at 12 were at the Gym at like 6 AM before school. Do you know what the fuck I was doing at 12? Me either, no one remembered because it sure as fuck didn’t matter but it probably involved mainly horror movie watching, video game playing, and inventing overly complex games of tag to play in the woods near my house. I also slept until like 10 if I could. So that’s inside her sports fandom, outside it I see people who get critical of former Olympians for… trying to stay famous? For daring to show up during a time that is not the Olympics. Like how dare they try to make some money or… get a career post the career that can’t seem to last past the age of 19. I dunno, I feel like there is more I could say about this but I was woken up by a 10K outside my window at 6 AM this morning. Look, if you guys want to hate on athletes hate on the dicks who think it’s fun to run through my neighborhood while their friends bang on garbage cans and shit. Those people are the real monsters. Anyway, McKayla Maroney makes me think about a lot of things and I think she is pretty. I will also always be forever impressed by the ability she has, I think it’s amazing. So today I want to fuck McKayla Maroney.
