I give up. if anybody wants to fix this so I can share the joke, feel free; nothing seems to work on images I try to display.

I don't know what you are trying to do.

Isn't the girl the Ice Skating assailant?
Don't know who the poker player is or why someone in the background is wearing a pig's mask.

Horse?
If you play poker, you'd know it's a donkey.

Thank you SO much, wudged! I have no idea how you did that.

Top photo: McLaughlin, about 4am this morning Eastern, WSOP final table, all in w/pocket Kings, watching himself get beat by pocket Aces. He had to settle for 6th place out of almost 8000 and 1.6 million US and change.

Bottom photo: Mckayla Maroney, on the medals stand, receiving the silver at London 2012 for an event she expected to receive the gold. She did receive gold in at least one other event, and collectively beat several thousand girls worldwide to stand silver here, but all she could see was the one above her.

Both highly ironic but a window into the determination of a champion and a glass-half-empty attitude towards great accomplishment on both of their behalfs.

Of course, if I have to explain it, the humor's drained out....but Mckayla's pout was iconic last year and used to photobomb and meme everything for a few months, which is why it looked so familiar on McLaughlin.

Life is so difficult for me when I am sober.
Will someone tell me: what is beach bum babs trying to do with these images when they are clearly not images of diamonds, rubies and emeralds?
Why has she photographed someone wearing a horse's head when its rather obvious the other half of the horse seems the more relevant half for the idiot depicted in the photo?
Is the female the discredited Ice Skating Queen or simply a poker player that resembles her to some degree?
The ribbon seems to read London 2012, so should I google female poker players in Europe to figure out who has been photographed?
I think I'll go in search of a little hair of the dog ... .

Flea,

Look in my post below where I quoted the pictures and that hopefully will save you some hairy dog googling....

Well that's just plain rude and mean.

Oh, I get it. Gracious Winners.

I'll wait for the photos of men showering you with diamonds, rubies and emeralds as you glide gracefully through the high roller area in the Bahamas.

Lol...I should live so long.

You should tell me the next time you come this way to get on the Victory. I'd meet you there.
