      She’s either the next Ali-G or just a starry-eyed dreamer who wasn’t about to let her mom-bod get in the way of her aspirations. Either way I give her props and hope she has the ability to share in some of the laughter she brought to the world. Im glad she’s out there keeping it real.

      In the show, the Ramones performed, Mr. Burns was offended, and he tells Smithers “Have the Rolling Stones killed.”

        Thank you! It’s been nearly 20 years since I watched the Simpsons regularly.

      They both went viral somewhat recently. I think that’s the joke, Burns is so old and out of touch he mixed them up.

    Why? The ones winning the contests haven’t been on a-social media that often. So she’s most famous for her style. Chapeau!

    At least she gave things a try, unlike most people

    Raise your hands if you’ve been in the Olympics…

    Me and my mates so stupid stuff all the time just to mess around… It’s better to try something and fail then not try at all. And she’ll have a great pub story

      And when you’re messing around, are you representing your entire nation live? She arguably hurt the sport by delegitimizing it on its debut

        Hell nah. Give it a go.

        I started a Meetup group a few years ago as a hobby despite no formal training. My group has now outlived many others and I’m surprised by how many people I meet on hikes who have heard of my group and actually listen to my advice these days.

        Don’t forget about the guy either who ran an ultra marathon with no real training here in Australia and ended up winning . Turned out his goofy style of running was actually more efficient than normal jogging.

        I know someone who is the world record holder for highest gym class She absolutely deserved it. She’s not nims, but she gave it a shot

        I know a lady with Parkinson’s who is a cross fit champ. People like you would tell her she should give up

        As long as you’re safe and not a danger to others, definitely give things a shot.
