Itās hard to believe yet another Olympics has come and gone. Last Sunday, August 21, marked the end of a mesmerizing two-week run in Rio de Janeiro, Brazilāone that wouldnāt have been complete without the shattering of a few world records, of course. U.S. athletes in particular returned home victorious, toting 100+ medals and a 54-count lead over runner-up Great Britain. And despite having indulged in nearly 2,100 hours of marathon coverage, we viewers arenāt quite over the action. So what better way to recap the competition, controversy, and chaos than with Twitter? Below are 15 snarky tweets thatāll keep us laughing until the Winter Games come around.
