Michael Phelps' Stink Eye Is The Greatest Gift From The Olympics
Forget the gold in swimming, he deserves the gold in stink eye.
While waiting for the men's 200m butterfly, Michael Phelps provided us with probably the greatest Olympic meme since McKayla Maroney's unimpressed face at London's 2012 Olympics. Phelps was plotting to take back the gold from his South African rival Chad le Clos by sitting quietly , but le Clos didn't have the same warm up routine. As le Clos began to do what he calls "a little dancing," Phelps looks as if he's just completely DONE with his rival, giving him probably one of the greatest stink eyes of all time.
It resembles the look a senior would give a bunch of underclassmen singing on the bus early in the morning. Immediately, Phelps became a meme and the internet is LOVING it.
You may think it wasn't that serious, but this was a moment Phelps has been preparing for since the last Olympic games. Phelps was favored to win the 200m butterfly in London, but le Clos shocked the world by reaching the wall .05 seconds before Phelps touched the wall.
Even without all of the backstory about their rivalry, it's still a hilarious meme that'll probably stick around until the next Olympic games in Tokyo.
