Just two bros, nuts to butts, at breakneck speeds.

Me: "It's the hot dog luge"
Wife: "What? Why?"
Me: "Weiner rests in the split of the buns"
Wife:

where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink, he would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Some times he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy, the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical, summers in Rangoon, luge lessons.
Pretty standard, really
Lol, I definitely did not fully appreciate this when watching as a teen. Hilarious.
No actually the boy is quite astute. I really am trying to kill him, but so far unsuccessfully. He's quite wily, like his old man.

“Please don’t pop a boner, please oh please god no!”
Or maybe do?
Geeze, who do you think these guys are, ski jumpers?
Somewhere above they were talking about weight distribution. You think theres a team that would be faster if one of them popped a boner?
:: halfway down the run ::
Top: Ok, you know, that's making it really hard to concentrate.
Bottom: Well if you would not bounce us around so much...
I have cackled loudly and now I need to explain why to my children.
Thank you.
Top/Bottom in which sense?
Starts solo, and then your buddy asks if he can join.
Or you are too scared to try it yourself, so you ask your friend(me), to hold you so you feel safe going down that big hill
I looked up the origins of the luge double and you're not too far from the truth!
I’m too scared bro. Can I ride you bro?
I'm a bit confused. Which one is the top here?
The one on the bottom.
And yet the guy on top technically finishes first
"Bro you wanna do butt stuff but on ice going really fast in front if everyone?"
Prolly like that
In luge, being the best is sort of just a height and weight distribution thing. I honestly think a corpse that's my same shape could win.
The sport needs her. She's a once in a generation... shape.
Alexander Skarsgard was great on SNL
Jane Wickline has singlehandedly breathed new life into SNL for me. Previously it was Pete Davidson (RIP his career choices) that made me feel represented there. Made me excited to watch.
Haven't been huge on SNL in a while, but I fucking love Sarah Sherman's stuff.
Absolute fucking maniac
Pete Davidson (RIP his career choices)
What's he done? I haven't seen much from him since his comedy special a few years ago.
And yeah, I've been loving Jane's stuff as well. Her songs can be kind of hit or miss but she's so great in general. I loved how she played off the reaction to the Trumpet mom in the recent sketch
I'm like 97% sure that this sport started on a dare.
I had a friend who lived with a few dudes in a house, and I go over to her place and she's getting ready and one of her roommates is sitting in the kitchen eating a chicken breast and broccoli. We get to chatting, and he tells me he's going to Olympic trials for luge, and so obviously I ask how you get into that.
He ends up telling me he ran and was successful at track, and he basically got poached, mainly because of his size and his running ability.
So yeah. That's it.
You start off with a bit of spooning and before you know it you are in the winter Olympics.
The top guy is solidly connected to the shaft. Good for cornering.
Isn't weird that the twink is on top?
My best friends Brandon and Jonathan discovered they were pretty good at this while they were in the restroom at the Handy Down Bar and they're celebrating their 3 week anniversary next Friday! So, it DOES happen more often than you think.
You know...that actually looks kinda gay if you ask me.
Sometimes I think the real miracle is that some only-a-little-bit-gay and some not-even-noticably-gay events have finally been accepted into the Olympics.
Edit: unless we stretch our imaginations to imagine that the ancient Greek origins of fit naked men wrestling in public might not have been terribly sexually charged, I guess.
It's not gay if you're underway
i will not apologize for saying that looks like a sex position
This is just a normal Friday night for me
Probably like this

Luge is confusing enough. This is just moreso.
Seriously. For both events, I feel like the skill curve starts at "try not to die" and just keeps climbing in degrees of "get better at not dying" and "point your feet in the right direction".
I'm guessing there's a rule against a crotch cam, so the top can leave his head down?
I watched a comedian say that you could force a guy onto one of those things and he could probably win an involuntary gold medal
"bro you getting hard? I told you to wear a cup"
I'm fine with going fast on a sled being a sport. That's cool. But, it seems like something where it's only valid if everybody involved is actively doing something on the way down, not just being ballast.
One person sledding makes sense. But, in this sport, the guy on the bottom can't possibly be anything but ballast, can he? He can't see anything, so he can't be steering or braking, right?
Same with bobsled, the guy at the front is steering. Maybe the people in the back help with something, but they can't be too actively involved because they can't see.
Maybe the guy on top looks and the guy on bottom steers, and the hard part is communication
In bobsled, the other people at the back are important for the initial pushoff, since you're allowed a running start. And then I'm pretty sure everyone helps steer, based on what the guy in the front is doing/commands he gives.
Granted, all my knowledge of bobsled comes from Cool Runnings, so take all that with a grain of salt
