McKayla Is Not Impressed…

I actually like McKayla Maroney more now that she has responded to the memes about “McKayla is Not Impressed” with a humorous meme of her own on Twitter.

Days after her facial reaction became a viral favorite, U.S. Olympic gymnast McKayla Maroney appears to have fully adopted her own meme.

After settling for a silver medal in last Sunday’s women’s vault final, Maroney made waves with a pout that captured her second-place disappointment. That prompted the birth of the “McKayla Is Not Impressed” Tumblr, sporting the 16-year-old’s signature expression toward situations outside of gymnastics.

On Saturday, Maroney brought the “not impressed” air to her own Instagram account, posting a photo of her disappointment that a pool was closed.

Perfect Vault and they Deducted Points?

American Olympic vaulter McKayla Maroney won a silver medal and missed the gold after falling on her dismount.  She agrees that was fair and so do I.  However, in an earlier vault, she did a maximum difficulty vault and perfectly stuck the landing, leaving the judges looking like this:

And…the judges did not give her a 10?  I would like to see someone ask the judges what they deducted points for.  Seriously!
