Tip #1. Mention Pearl Harbor every chance you get. Everybody there just loves talking with Americans about it.

It's not so much the Pearl Harbor talk as it is the Hiroshima and Nagasaki talk.

Tip #3: Don't squint but wear sunglasses instead. They will think you are making fun of them.

Tip #5: Mr Miyagi not nearly as popular in Japan as you’d think. Every time you say “wax on wax off” to people on the street they just stare at you.

Maybe my attitude will change over the next couple weeks, but for the first time in my life, I don’t give one single **** about the Olympics. I’m sick of the COVID politics. I’m sick of the America hating attitude of some of America’s own athletes, I’m just apathetic towards the whole damn thing.

I ask this genuinely...outside of Katie Ledecky, Rona, and kneeling, are there any other storylines?

Not really. I’ve always been a big follower of the olympics but its just not appealing to me this go round.

Simone Biles repeating her all around gold. Of course, she's gonna win unless something crazy happens. No one else can even do the stuff she does, so it's mathematically impossible for other people to win unless she falls on multiple events. She would literally have to go tumbling out of bounds multiple times and fall off the beam a few times for anyone else to win.

I have a hard time thinking of an athlete more impressive and dominant than Simone Biles.
