Maybe it’s just a weird internet deja vu but didn’t something just like this happen in a recent Olympics?

[–] makyo@lemmy.world 24 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Maybe this is what I was remembering: https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-18993023

You know what, good on you, mate, for doing that leg work. Cheers for that!

[–] makyo@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

I knew it was going to bother me until I got to the bottom of it

[–] ArmyTiger@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago (2 children)

That seems like a really easy mistake to not make. Like, has North Korea ever been to the Olympics?

[–] Pirasp@lemmy.world 22 points 3 months ago

Yes, they have a delegation there right now

[–] Zoidsberg@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 months ago

Yes. They're mentioned in the third sentence of the article.
