"Siri, remind me to watch the MAHGFAQQINN LYMPICS."

One of the strangest and most precious gems from this weekend was discovering that Pulp Fiction slash The Avengers slash Star Wars slash everything else star Samuel L. Jackson loves the 2012 Summer Olympics and can’t stop tweeting about them.

It’s important to stress that this is not a parody, and that these are real tweets from @SamuelLJackson. They cover everything from handball to sync diving to Malaysian badminton, all with Jackson’s contractually obligated tendency to shoehorn curse words into anything he’s saying. The guy works in “f**k” like Jackson Pollock worked in drip. He spells it however he wants, puts it wherever he wants whether it makes sense or not and sometimes ends up with a mangle of consonants because he’s SAMUEL L. MARGHFAGGUIN JACKSON.

Normally I’d want to provide some kind of commentary or context for these, but that’d be like touching a baby bird. Two major warnings before you proceed:

1. These tweets may contain harsh language, and reader discretion is advised.

2. These tweets may contain language you did not know existed.

Please enjoy 20 of the best Sam Jackson tweets from this weekend, and join us every day between now and the end of the Olympics for 20 more.

Legendary actor/Afro Samurai/Agent Of S.H.I.E.L.D./Jedi Samuel L. Jackson handled the player introductions for last night’s New Orleans Hornets versus Los Angeles Clippers game, and while it wasn’t quite as good as Will Ferrell announcing that Jarrett Jack was leaving basketball to become a rodeo clown, it was still pretty great.

The highlight, of course, is Jackson changing up his “great vengeance and furious anger” monologue from Pulp Fiction to make it about the Hornets lying their vengeance upon thee. He should’ve taken it all the way and repeatedly asked Blake Griffin what Marsellus Wallace looks like. I guess my only real complaint is that he wasn’t unexpectedly eaten by a shark in the middle of it.

The Hornets and the Minnesota Timberwolves have really emerged as leaders in NBA new media this season. They should throw in together and make dumb viral videos introduced by celebrities. It’d be just like Funny or Die!

The Atlanta Falcons marketing department is hoping that they speak English in Atlanta, because that’s the language Samuel L. Jackson used while recording the team’s newest commercial. The ad calls for Falcons fans to “rise up,” because that’s what Falcons do. They flap their wings to generate lift, which rises them up into the sky. Clever, I know.

The gist of the ad is Sam Jackson and his ridiculous glasses are breaking the fourth wall to pump up Falcons fans for the coming season. While he speaks, a church choir is hanging out in the back, repeating “rise up” as Jackson loses track of his inside voice. And why wouldn’t you rise up after watching this commercial? If you said “because watching football in a dome is stupid,” then I’m inclined to agree with you. Video after the jump. Read the rest of this entry »
