Most people go about their day never expecting to go viral. When you go to the Olympics, you expect a certain level of international attention, but for one Olympic sharp shooter from Turkey, he's become an internet sensation for his simplistic, but successful, way of shooting.

Hey, it's easier to shoot better if you're comfortable. More power to him.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I always wonder about these shooting sports, bows and guns.  All these dudes with all the special accoutrements all over their weapons and their bodies.  It's insane.  I always wonder if it's REQUIRED you use a compound bow, WITH stabilizing and aiming acccoutrements (that look like they'll tip you over), blinkers, etc.  It's funny partly because if you're in a REAL situation, you'd not want all that claptrap weighing you down and getting in your way - not in war, and not in a street fight.

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.
