Friday watch party: 2010 Olympics OD

[JoannaLouise]

BF just wandered in and asked what I was doing. I had no idea how to explain, so I just said "I'm watching the 2010 Olympics with a bunch of strangers from the internet."

He just shrugged and said "Ok, cool". Didn't even bat an eye.

Emily was a firecracker.

 

[alchemy void]

I’m already totally distracted by Evan’s crotch. Dear lord.

That's the best part.

 

[rfisher]

Music snark. Why is Evan dressed as cowboy when they are skating to Bluegrass? Wrong genre.

 

[Skate Talker]

Really liked everything about Samuelson except the tights over boots look

 

[Aerobicidal]

USA! USA! USA! USA!

 

[VGThuy]

Emily Samuelson was the best American female ice dancer of that generation and probably the previous one too.

 

[Colonel Green]

Bring hats back to ice dance!

 

[ChelleC]

My hatred of Evan Bates over splitting with Emily Samuelson is about to come back in 3..2..1...

 

[Kateri]

That's the best part.

The tasselled pasties?

 

[skipaway]

Emily was a firecracker.

Is that you, Tara Lipinski???

Now, from our perspective, this is something that we might easily be doing anyhow during the offseason. But for everyone else, this is what the pandemic has done to them.

That reminds me of that Veep episode where they had her going to a barbecue in South Carolina and later on, she’s like “why am I the only one in a cowboy hat?” Before she talked about Israel in front of a giant roasting spinning hog.

 

[CassAgain]

That was so good!

 

[Jeschke]

So time for Bob!
Slay my Queen!

 

[JoannaLouise]

OMG, is Evan wearing nipple tassels??

She's so good.

 

[Jeschke]

Who was the blonde coach for S/B?

 

[CassAgain]

Oh precious baby sailors!

 

[Jeschke]

Soloviev in that costume

 

[mjb52]

YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES SAILORS

 

[Aerobicidal]

OMG, is Evan wearing nipple tassels??

Of course. It's the requisite uniform when you skip your mathlete competition to go line dancing with the president of Future Soccer Moms or America.

So time for Bob!
Slay my Queen!

Don't cry.

 

[ChelleC]

Russian sailors!!! Yes!!!!

 

[Kateri]

Who was the blonde coach for S/B?

Looked like Julia Sebestyen, after her post career glo-up, but can't be, so i dunno!

 

[skipaway]

I didn’t think you could wear pants back then.

 

[Jeschke]

Don't cry.

#toolate

Well, at least it's not the Anna Karenina FD

 

[skategal]

I alwAys loved that OD by Emily and Evan

 

[Barbara Manatee]

Bob Sol are adorbs. I want to reach through the screen and pat them on the head.

I told my faculty I had to run an errand and left and came home. They would never have understood why.
