Watching the olympics and I joked with the Mrs “how funny would it be if this block island was just down at like, Cowes or something”

She goes “yeah philip island was a strange choice”

I go “what?! They are actually doing it on Philip island?! You’re shitting me!”

“Nah, they announced it ages ago I’m pretty sure!”

“But they are sprooking it as some fancy tropical thing! And they’re just doing it down the island? You’ve gotta be kidding me! You can fucking drive there!”

That is just the funniest thing to me.
