Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

I promise this is true. Will answer what I can without giving away too many clues about the athlete.

Edit: @JoeByeThen@hexbear.net is the winner of this thread, meaning he has paper-scissors-rocked his way to victory over an Olympic gold medalist.

Was it Michael Phelps in competitive bong rips.

Alas, no.

It was a sport that has been in the Olympics, and perhaps will one day return.

Urban planning?

Like urban planning and competitive bong rips, it's one where you can gain weight while playing

Edit: Shit, what we played was only featured in a "demonstration programme" and didn't make the Games
