Silver is the New Gold


U.S. following new hipster trend, claimed a secure lead in the silver medal count these past olympics letting China take a respectful second place at Gold. Over the past few years the general opinion has shifted away from the fame and fortune of gold, for its tacky and cliché nature. Silver with its vintage look and carefree attitude is the new medal to aim for in all competitive events. One of our weakest olympians Michael Phelps seemed not to get the memo as he pulled a huge party foul going for 8 gold medals. I interviewed one local olympic viewer on the contraversy, "What a fucking douchebag that Phelps, going for gold when he could have pushed a little harder and gone for silver. It's like he doesn't even care about this country. I bet he listens to Coldplay... asshole." Clearly a lot of resentment amongst American fans.
