friday favorites: the internet wins again

It's Friday morning, there's a cool breeze humidity outside, and we've got zero plans ahead for the weekend. 

^^^All those things combined up there make a pretty freaking great Friday, if I do say so myself. Although that zero plans part is a lie because I fully plan on kicking off the three weeks of me watching TV non-stop Olympics by watching the Opening Ceremonies tonight. 

I thought I would interrupt your regularly scheduled wide range of topics Friday Favorites post to focus your attention on one topic: the internet. More specifically, how the internet keeps winning every. single. day. 

Winning what?! you might ask. And that's a good question...what do we mean when we use the term someone or something is winning? Let me Google that. 

...

Ah yes, Charlie Sheen graced us with such wonderful slang. Thanks, Charlie! You're winning for sure. 

In the midst of everyone arguing about politics (and government, race, and life), I've found social media to be pretty much 100% unbearable. Times infinity. I've always wondered the stats on people's minds being changed by someone's rude and passive aggressive Facebook post in which he/she tries to convince you he/she is right and you are wrong. I'm assuming the numbers are rather low, but if you have a success story of Party A shoving beliefs down Party B's throat, and Party B changing beliefs, then please share.  I digress. 

Here are some links for top notch ways the internet was won lately:

For the 30 Rock/no-Trump fan:

Excuse the language on this one (or go wash out your mouth with soap):

This one could be filed under winning and goals.

Anything with Aziz is golden, add in Jimmy Fallon and you've got...double golden:

Nothing is more beautiful than male ballerinas. Nothing. 

Happy Friday!

Hooray for the Olympics and the opening ceremonies tonight! I'm so excited to watch them tonight and then watch the Olympics nonstop for the next three weeks like you! We have some big TVs in an open area in our office, and I'm trying to figure out how we can watch the Olympics on those during lunch! Hopefully the social media stuff will change from talking about the election to talking about the Olympics, at least for three weeks!

I HATE the political facebook posts. No one is changing anyone else's mind based on facebook posts!! I am about ready to delete mine until after the election. Now, the Olympics is something I can get on board with. I am watching them this very moment in fact! So fun!!
