I saw a clip/quote of this at the gym today, and just- yes. yes, yes, yes.

i have my issues with johnny weir.

none of them, not one, is expressed here. i was with him for every second of this speech. you tell 'em, johnny. you tell the world.

Do you really? I can kind of guess what some of them might be, but if you don't mind I'd be interested to hear about them.

they're mostly to do with his athletic work ethic, honestly. /sekrit figure skating nerd. :)

oh, ok, that makes sense. "the swan" and "the workhorse" are not interchangeable, heh.

but mostly: yay, another figure skating nerd, yayy! As much as I love Johnny, I do selfishly wish that the currently-burgeoning fandom was more broadly focused and more into the actual skating. I am admittedly very newly initiated (still learning to visually distinguish the different jumps, ahaha /o\), but mannn, I'm getting in deep.

do you have favorite skaters/ice dancers? I'm new enough to more-than-casual interest in the sport to be wary of voicing too many uninformed opinions, but I'm always curious what other people think. :D :D
