olympics
n. Loose
assemblage of activities undertaken quadrennially by over-ripped folk with an odd view of life and difficulty prioritising. Small trinkets on coloured ribbons and needlessly ostentatious flower arrangements are commonly given to several of the better entrants as stirring tunes play. Flags and advertising
signage tend to be prominently displayed and
portly men in suits shuffle about needlessly.......................................................................................
The Olympics
by Starchylde on May 29, 2016 07:05:28
Held every 4 years, this year in Rio De
Janerio,
167 countries compete in many various sports & it's a Thrill to watch! It lasts a lil over 2 weeks. My favorite sport is gymnastics. Originated from sports events in
Olympia, Greece very many centuries ago!
Example:
I can't wait til The Olympics start! I'll be glued to the TV & get to see excellent athletes from so many different countries! I love the opening & closing ceremonies too & the lighting of
the Olympic Torch, the parade of flags from all the different countries. The
Winter Olympics occur every 4 years
staggered by a 2~year time frame from the Summer Olympics.

the best friend you could ever ask for, sometimes they can be annoying cause they don’t understand you might actually have a language
barrier. They cry with you when you’re sad and
get high on
static electricity when you’re happy. They r beeutiful and the problem is they don’t know it.

An sporting event originating in Greece as an honor
to the gods. In more modern times it has become an international sporting contest were most of the world's countries participate every four years. The athletes selected to participate are their country's
cream of the crop and represent their home nation with unparalleled pride. Being awarded a medal means you are one of the best athletes in the world. A pure and true athletic
spectacle that has unfortunately received less popularity in recent years.
Example:
The true, original definition of
athleticism originated at the ancient Olympics. Being allowed to
represent your country is considered the ultimate goal for almost every
athlete in the world.

Olympism is a philosophy of life,
exalting and combining in a balanced whole the qualities of body, will and mind.
Blending sport with culture and education, Olympism seeks to create a way of life based on the joy found in effort, the educational value of good example and respect for universal fundamental ethical principles.

Example:
Just watched a midget run the
100m in 6 seconds flat, then
burst into a
roid rage and attack the crowd. These Olympics are awesome!

Shorthand for "The
Olympic Games": A sporting event held every four years on a very
uneven playing field where rich countries' athletes kick poor countries' athletes butts so rich countries can
gloat.
