Although for the male athletes this is the one activity during the Olympics where coming first is not the target.

Some have a win at all costs mentality

[Bridger]

For some male athletes just entering is reward enough

[Matt]

I’d be perfectly happy coming third.

It doesn’t matter if you win or lose, it’s how you play the game.

[goosehd]

…one last question; when in the heat of an argument, your better half calls you a f’n loser, is that a insult or compliment?

[Tago Mago]

@Matt third in a race of two isn’t that great tbh

[Tago Mago]

@goosehd she married you. Who’s the loser now?

[Tago Mago]

I am basing this on the logic that the better half is calling „you“ a fucking loser. Obviously I do not endorse this position

[yannis]

That is a nasty thing to say to your spouse all jokes aside.

[goosehd]

As all of this conversation has been tongue in cheek with the comments above meant to be semi what humerous at the most juvenile levels. Yes calling your spouse a loser is not funny and I apologize to anyone offended.

[yannis]

@goosehd no offense my man. I misunderstood myself. My apologies

[goosehd]

@yannis No worries and a good reminder that nuance, sarcasm, and intent can be hard to interpret on the forum.

Thank you for reminding me and I appreciate it.

@Matt you’re just saying this to distract from the fact that you’re a big softie at heart

[Giles]

Paula calls me a loser all the time........

And I regularly get this:

A legendary golden fabric once worn only by emperors has made an astonishing comeback. Korean scientists have successfully recreated ancient sea silk—a rare, shimmering fiber prized since Roman times—using a humble clam farmed in modern coastal waters. Beyond reviving its luxurious look, the team uncovered why this fiber never fades: its glow comes not from dyes, but from microscopic structures that bend light itself.

If you tear anything, maybe the Gosport team can chain stitch you up. The you’ll be roped for her pleasure.
