Well, he is Turkish. It stands to reason he has a cat.

There’s too many pictures of this guy, but I’ll allow this. Cute kitty.

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 89 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I didn’t care or know who he was …

But now? I’m cheering.

I’ll cheer for anyone who posts their cat photos.

He's the guy from the anime gun memes

I realize this. My not-caring has to do more with … Olympics. Broadly speaking, i find sports in general to be very much boring.

Now if they brought robotics into the fold I’d be all in.

But I’ll cheer a bit for this guy cuz he dropped a cat photo. Maybe we’ll get more.

(for example the FIRST league, or maybe battle bots style fights,)

Even the cat looks like he could olympically casually shoot at you.

Unimpressed Cat says "why isn't your medal gold, Yusuf?" -_-

Big dad vibes

It's hard to root for Turkey but this guy...

[–] Shellbeach@lemmy.world 16 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Did you mean hard to root for Erdoğan? Super easy to root for Turkey, lovely country, lovely people

[–] A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago

That's fair.

But is the cat a crack shot too?

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 17 points 11 months ago

Cat is adorable.

[–] PrincessLeiasCat@sh.itjust.works 16 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It’s like he’s taking a picture with himself as a cat.

They look alike in some odd way.

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 8 points 11 months ago

Same as with partners, loved pets often look alike.

[–] HootinNHollerin@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

There’s an Olympics channel on YouTube that I watched some

Really? Have you tried "Olympics"?

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 10 points 11 months ago (1 children)

So he's our new king now ay?

[–] jonne@infosec.pub 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

For just a few weeks until he follows the Turkish guy going viral path that Salt Bae took.

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 3 points 11 months ago

Yeah, but we will have 4 new kings by then

[–] Clbull@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago

He looks like Eugene Levy, that guy who plays the dad in every teen comedy film.

[–] thesporkeffect@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

This guy is the best Turkish PR in a generation

[–] Boozilla@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

This guy is going to end up having a beer with Hide the Pain Harold.

[–] feedum_sneedson@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

I like cats; I consider myself a cat fan.
