| 24 Feb 14 | … I had some nice things to say about NBC’s coverage this year, and then they have to go and poop on it on the last night. #Sochi2014 |
| 24 Feb 14 | … I have no idea what’s going on. aren’t there supposed to be educated and engaged commentators to help me? #Sochi2014 #NBCFail |
| 24 Feb 14 | … interesting that NBC shows clips from US v RUS hockey, instead of that game against Finland. #whitewashing #selectivehistory #Sochi2014 |
| 24 Feb 14 | … I love that Korea was given explicit instructions on how to tie their scarves so that the 2018 logo is clearly visible. #Sochi2014 |
| 24 Feb 14 | … yes, Cris, a 350 year old Russian ballet is exactly like Phantom of the Opera. #evendennismillerwouldbeanimprovement #Sochi2014 #nbcfail |
| 24 Feb 14 | … okay, Chris Collingsworth officially needs to #shutthehellup. #Sochi2014 #nbcfail |

| 24 Feb 14 | … kids choirs make everything awesomer. except “Kidz Bop.” that $&%?s rank. #Sochi2014 |
| 24 Feb 14 | … damn, I love the Russian sense of humor. #ringfail #Sochi2014 http://t.co/sc3lFA27Km |
| 24 Feb 14 | … in my head, I have an image of Posner taking Remnick out back and kneecapping him, thus saving the world from his commentary. #Sochi2014 |
| 24 Feb 14 | … I know watching is morally wrong, and that I’m losing brain cells as I speak, but this Nancy/Tanya special is #cracktastic. #Sochi2014 |
| 23 Feb 14 | … I fundamentally dislike Sidney Crosby’s smirk. #TeamCanada #Sochi2014 |
| 23 Feb 14 | … am I a horrible person for just assuming they’ve slept together, at least once? #IceDancing #Sochi2014 |
| 23 Feb 14 | … I tried to make it through this “gala” without drinking, but it’s just not going to happen. #alcoholnumbsthepain #Sochi2014 |
| 23 Feb 14 | … frankly, I’m ready to watch something with significantly less inspiring commercials. #sochi2014 |
| 23 Feb 14 | … just realized that Tara and Johnny’s comb over braids this week were a political statement in support of Yulia Tymoshenko. #sochi2014 |
| 23 Feb 14 | … every time I see a Lindsey Jacobellis commercial, I involuntarily get a condescending pouty sad-face and think sad thoughts. #Sochi2014 |
| 23 Feb 14 | … I hereby declare you a horrible human being if you weren’t teary by the end of the Jessica Long story. #Sochi2014 |
| 23 Feb 14 | … okay, NBC is actually pretty damn good at puff pieces. #Sochi2014 |
| 23 Feb 14 | … tho I was single parenting a 2 y.o. at the time, the @NBCOlympics special on Lokomotiv was pretty incredible. #Sochi2014 #NBCFTW |
| 22 Feb 14 | … just found a stash of old mix tapes. based on the song selection, I’d like to apologize to anyone I’ve ever known, dated or married. |
| 22 Feb 14 | … how soon until NBC packages #Ukraine protests with olympic gold win, and sets it to the theme from “Terms of Endearment?” #Sochi2014 |
| 22 Feb 14 | … has there always been this much country swapping at the #Olympics? #seemslikecheating #sochi2014 |
| 22 Feb 14 | … what’s the thematic antonym for Miracle on Ice? #floptothefinns #Sochi2014 |
| 22 Feb 14 | … conspiracies aside, looks like the math adds up. #Sotnikova #Sochi2014 via @nytimes http://t.co/3t9YOVC0T6 |
| 22 Feb 14 | … can we stop blaming the speedskating suits now?!? #Sochi2014 http://t.co/KKoRTxPaow |
| 22 Feb 14 | … p.s. Ashley needs to shut it because transparency wasn’t the thing keeping her off the podium. #Sochi2014 |
| 22 Feb 14 | … speaking of jackasses, Ashely Wagner is horrible but she’s right about transparency. #stillshutup #Sochi2014 http://t.co/o23bTNIiz7 |
| 22 Feb 14 | … well, turns out the penance for winking at the camera in the start house is to win gold. #imgoodnow #Sochi2014 |
| 22 Feb 14 | … they’ve got to be so psyched to be skiing on something that kinda sorta actually resembles snow. #Sochi2014 |
| 22 Feb 14 | … btw, I missed you guys. #dontgetthefluduringtheolympics #Sochi2014 |
| 22 Feb 14 | … is that the same speed skater from GBR that keeps falling down? #Sochi2014 |
