Everyone fell off at the same spot, too. And Simone was furious. She was talking furiously and her coach was trying to shush her. She seemed to be complaining about something that happened as soon as she started her pass. I kept rewinding to hear what she was saying but I couldn’t make it out. Suni responded “I know, are they telling them to do that?” or something. I wonder what was happening at that end of the beam.

It might have been some lighting issue or flashbulb

But I am wondering what everybody else feels about the big fake eyelashes? (Track and field women wear them too). It just looks stupid to me.......... but am getting use to it.

What do you think?

I think you don't understand people different than you have different cultures and dress and style differently than you. You don't have to like every style every culture has.

Oh. (Looking you up and down)

Which culture are the Kardashian lashes from? and don’t try to say Armenian.

I’m confused. Aren’t our Olympic athletes quite literally representing… the United States of America? Isn’t that our culture?

Sorry you're confused
But no, the culture in NYC is different than the culture in Austin, San Francisco, Duluth, Miami, Salt Lake City, Nashville just to name major cities so there is no confusion.
But all are American, just variations

Still not clear? Maybe we start by defining the word "culture" so we're on the same page

Yes. Do that. Also explain what it means to compete for the United States of America in international competition, as opposed to representing NYC or Miami or Duluth in national competition.

Do you think we have a single unified national culture where everyone does their hair and makeup the same way, regardless of age, ethnicity, and location? What are the official "USA" eye makeup and lash styles? When do younger generations get to have input on them?

I don’t care what she does with her lashes (although I do think they’re stupid looking) you’re the one who brought up “culture”.

(Since you’re obviously simple-minded: these ugly lashes and talon nails aren’t “muh culture!”, they’re just a trendy style preference. The “culture” which supports these dumb trends is our current US culture, or TikTok so maybe Chinese?, so really, WTH are you even talking about?)

She didn't bring up culture, she's responding to your response to me. I didn't bring it up either. I think you are the simple minded one blathering on about the look of these gymnasts just because it's not your preference .

The rest of what you wrote sounds like nonsense. I can guess what's prompting your tirade. So sad you don't get to see gymnasts whose look you like.

Okay. You’re continually responding to a sub thread in which someone said she wears fake lashes because it’s her culture, as though you are that person.

You’re still a moron. Fake lashes and talon nails aren’t a product of a different culture. Particularly for a team all representing one culture.

What culture wears heavy set lashes that have an unattractive curl?

Lots of young women like to wear fake eyelashes. It's bizarre that you keep dragging it out.

Based on Suni’s interview and some reporting from the arena, people in the crowd were telling others to be quiet and not cheer, so the place was jarringly silent. Gymnasts are used to background noise.Suni said that it was so quiet it felt like everyone could hear her breathing.

Are you suggesting the American contingent would go along with some sabotage request to shush? Sometimes people just have a bad day. It’s not about being the best in practice or warm ups you have to be the best when it counts.

What do they feel like? Must be distracting.

From an expert, what could go wrong with a beam at a certain spot? They've been using it all week.

What you said is true and yet doesn’t answer the question. What CULTURE does this?

The equipment has been removed and put back in every day depending on if men or women are competing. Not all apparatuses are out at the same time. If a beam isn’t properly secured or tightened it can move more in specific spots.

Does anyone remember that olympics where the vault was set up wrong and all the taller gymnasts were falling on their landings?

No, they're saying the silence made them uncomfortable because it's not typically how they perform. Normally there's background noise and instead the silence threw off their rhythm.

That was the Sydney 2000 games.
