    Can someone explain this to me? Is it that they're mother/daughter?

    Lol no, the second girl is only 16..the first girl was 22 when she competed that, at the 1956 Olympics.

    It's just showing how much gymnastics has changed..the skill shown there by the first gymnast would be done by 5 year olds now and the same thing can be said for floor, bars etc. Larisa Latynina is the first gymnast, of the Soviet Union, whose Olympic record total of medals Phelps has just beat..that's where you might have heard her name. The second gymnast is McKayla Maroney of USA.

    The first vault is just turning sideways onto the vault and landing. The second vault is a backhandspring onto the springboard (this style was invented in 1984) then launching backwards from the vault, twisting two and a half times and somersaulting one and half times. The second vault was invented in 2000. The irony is that the second girl did not win the vault title, because she sat down her second vault. She got silver though, and almost got gold. That particular vault is shown because it is the best of its kind ever done, she gets a foot higher than anyone else doing it- even the men who have the vault set higher up than women- and always lands totally upright (because it's so difficult, many of them land badly doing it and barely stop twisting in time..lots of torn ACL's and dislocated knees on this vault). That's all the mystery there.

    why is this gif funny or what's the point of it?


    It's not funny, it's just impressive..but only really if you watch other people vaulting and then watch her after or else have some knowledge of gymnastics. This vault is one of the most difficult, and only a few women attempt it. This girl is the best vaulter in the world, she won silver on vault, even though she fell on one of them (a few days after the one shown here). The reason it's impressive is that she gets a foot higher than anyone else who does this vault, male or female, has perfect form..and stuck the landing. It vent viral because it's the best this vault has ever been done, even than she herself has done it as she hasn't stuck the landing on one in quite a while. She also did this with a bad back and a broken toe.

    - 4Chan mountain Dew

    I dont get it.

    Mountain Dew ran a competition on their website to name the new Mountain Dew drink. 4chan got together and resulted in such names in the top 10 as "Hitler Did Nothing Wrong", "Fapple", and "Grannies Squirt".

    The competition was pulled obviously! There's a bit more info here, and a screenshot of the top 10:

    Was pretty stunned to see the "Jesus Christ THIS IS A BIG SIGN" pic. I was at that burn, it's a Burning Man regional event just outside of Austin, Texas. Only 2500 people.

    Small World.

    Yeah she is. They are on the set of how i met your mother. (I figure as there is those vanity chairs with the name in the background). As for who the other one is I have no idea.

    It looks like Ally is teasing her over having the gold.

    Its because she was turned into such a massive meme, i suppose.

    There's another photo of her with Neil Patrick Harris, same kinda thing- she has the silver, he has the gold. I don't think they're very funny, but whatever. Her family have had to hire security for her, she's being mobbed and she lives near LA..

    It's a 16th century woodcut. I posted it without any text or manipulation to allow other people to adapt it as they saw fit for the thread.
    Re. the wi-fi comment? I thought the guy on the right, below the caption, looked like he was consulting a smart-phone.

    Lads, unless you have a question concerning a specific vid, pic or link on the forum then post here on this thread.
    YLYL is a funny image thread, if you think a particular pic breaks a rule on the charter or any kind of moral code then hit the report button and one of us will sort it out if we deem necessary.
    Lets just leave it at that and put an end to the string of chat that has gone on the last few hours. :)

    Hi
    I am lost on these two

    218358.jpg
    I see the pic is called 'tits on this'. Is that the 'joke' or is it in relation to something else.
    218359.jpg
    I saw this one discussed below but I still cannot see why it is funny? Is it an American pie/Band Camp joke?

    Cheers

    The two girls with medals thing is probably a take on how McKayla (girl on right) was so much in shock that she looked 'unimpressed' with the silver. I follow that sport obsessively and even I don't find it funny! More impressive that she is going to be the most 'in demand' of her team and the most famous..

    John Terry didnt play in the champions league final.

    However after the final whistle he came out in his kit which he had just changed into to celebrate with the rest of the team.

    This was seen as crass. So now, anytime anyone is celebrating anything john terry shows up in his kit to take credit for it.
