This is a 3-row, 2-column comparison meme. The left column displays Wojak reaction faces, while the right column shows 2024 Paris Olympic medals. The top row shows a happy, smiling Wojak next to a gold Olympic medal. The middle row shows a dark, hollow-eyed, deeply depressed doomer Wojak next to a silver Olympic medal. The bottom row again shows the same happy smiling Wojak next to a bronze Olympic medal. The joke plays on the common relatable sentiment that finishing in second place feels far more disappointing than finishing third, as second place feels like a near-miss of winning first, while third place feels like a successful podium finish.

This is a 6-panel split meme using a popular clip from the Beckham Netflix documentary. The left three panels feature Victoria Beckham speaking, while the right three panels show David Beckham peeking around a doorframe to confront her. In the first row, Victoria claims she watches the Olympics because she loves sports, and David tells her to be honest. In the second row, Victoria insists she is being honest, and David asks when the last time she watched a sports event was. In the final row, Victoria admits she actually watches the Olympics to see attractive women from around the world in one place, and David responds with a satisfied 'Thank you'. The joke plays on the common relatable sentiment that many people tune into the Olympics for reasons unrelated to sports fandom, such as admiring attractive athletes.

The image features Johannes Thingnes Bø, a highly decorated Norwegian biathlete, taking a playful selfie. He uses a forced perspective/reflective trick with mirrors to create the illusion of holding six Olympic gold medals strung on a single blue ribbon; in reality, it is one medal reflected multiple times. He wears a traditional red-and-white Norwegian patterned knit sweater, has a proud, subtly amused facial expression, and holds the top of the medal ribbon up to the reflective surface to achieve the visual gag. The background shows an indoor residential space, including a white radiator, wall light switch, and a dark upholstered chair with wooden legs.

This image is a screenshot of a social media comment thread, likely from TikTok. The top comment from user `lvcountry` asks, *"Speaking of the Olympics, when did Czechoslovakia become Czechia??"* paired with confused face emojis, seeking information about the country's name change. The reply comment from user `yousickkkkk` delivers a sharp, provocative retort: *"Are schools in the U.S. meant for anything other than shooting?"* — referencing the ongoing crisis of school shootings in the United States as a critical clapback.

Answering the original question: Czechoslovakia peacefully split into the Czech Republic (officially adopting the short name **Czechia** in 2016 for international events like the Olympics) and Slovakia in 1993, in what's called the Velvet Divorce.

This reaction meme pairs a text caption with a dramatic still from the British TV series *Peaky Blinders*. The top text reads: "Me if I have to see one more joke about Olympic athletes having lots of sex". Below this is an image of Thomas Shelby (portrayed by Cillian Murphy) holding a gun to his temple, eyes closed, with an expression of extreme exasperation and despair. The meme uses this intense visual to hyperbolize the frustration and exhaustion of being repeatedly exposed to unoriginal, overdone jokes about Olympic athletes engaging in sexual activity during the games. It resonates with users who are tired of seeing the same viral trope circulate online during Olympic events.
