Been watching since I realized the #masterrace is #masterracing again.

Probably not gonna keep that top spot but it's fun to cheer for your arbitrarily bordered countrymen.

If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Nope, I don't pay the ridiculous tv tax my shitty government tries to extort out of people so I can't watch it.

Wait, you guys have a choice? For us it's if you own or know someone who owns or have seen a drawing of an internet capable device you gottta pay.

If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

No, watching sports is boring. Even the Tetris world championchips are more exciting.

It's been on in the background a couple times, but I'm not interested enough to actually watch it. Too busy playing GT Sport.

Winter sports are boring with all those bulky winter clothes...

Yeah! As much as I can anyway given the crap timezone that this is for live watching and unfortunately will be for the next summer Olympics in Tokyo and then the following winter in Beijing with 3 been in Asia in a row so looking forward to 2024 in Paris hah :P

I actually enjoy the Winter Olympics more than the Summer Olympics as I enjoy pretty much every event with Ice Hockey been the only one I really dislike but in the summer I generally just watch Cycling+Judo.
