Have a sibling and only one toboggan.
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

You know what? I think I could really go faster with a dick in my back…
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
There's nothing quite like a fully shaved scrotum. It really is quite breathtaking.
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.

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.
Craig: “What are we doing again?”
Mark: “We need to practice our luge doubles.”
Craig: “…”
Mark: “So I’m gonna need you to lie down on top of me.”
Craig: “Mark, this is a couch.”
Mark: “It’s just practice. We don’t have to be moving.”
Craig: “Mark, you asked me over to watch football.”
Mark (turns on football game): “Now come over here.”

:: 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'm like 97% sure that this sport started on a dare.
"I double dog dare you bro to sit on my shaft"
"But what about the sled?"
"I've got the brakes on, don't worry about it bro"
Tobogganing.
Tobogooning*
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.
why else would you watch it?

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.
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

They count how often the bottom nuts and add that to the score
Maybe the guy on top looks and the guy on bottom steers, and the hard part is communication
You start off with a bit of spooning and before you know it you are in the winter Olympics.
