    I think the medal looks a lot like a doughnut.

    Come on. I can’t be the only one.

    I was pretty sure the actual medals this year were discarded AOL cds.

    What a good year this is turning out to be for hacks!

    I actually thought it looked a bit like a pineapple ring from the pictures. Rest assured that in real life, it is far more majestic.
