"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.

Alert the Washington Post!  High school athletes have once again been exploited on risqué Web sites!  This time it's shots of high school water polo players that are popping up on gay porn sites, and parents are predictably pissed.

The shots are of dozens of apparently unsuspecting high school water polo players from San Diego, Los Angeles and Orange counties. The photos of the athletes are mingled with pictures of nude young men and young males engaged in sexual acts…

Legal experts say pictures taken at public events such as high school sporting competitions are generally protected by both the California and U.S. Constitutions. "I think as soon as we start muzzling people in terms of what they can do with public events and what photos they can show and not show… there's a real freedom of press issue," [law professor David] Steinberg said.

Oh hey, thanks for speaking up NOW, David Steinberg.  Where the fuck were you during that Allison Stokke thing?
