Man weirdly insistent on people knowing he isn’t watching the Olympics

As coverage of the Paris Olympics continues on TV, radio and Internet, one man has also ramped up his social media presence to inform and educate the population at large that he definitely isn’t tuning in.

Taking a delightfully contrarian twist, it turns out Simon Williams isn’t watching the Olympics and has previously expressed distaste at other popular and well-ingrained cultural phenomenon.

“In an unexpected lateral move from constant updates about how I won’t be watching the Euro 24 football tournament, I’m now broadcasting my complete lack of interest in the Olympics,” Williams announced.

“The Euro 24 stuff was actually quite engaging, I made an observation about how it’s just 11 men chasing a ball; I think there was some social commentary as well when I referenced how much they get paid compared to nurses.”

When questioned on the obvious fuck-up in his maths, Williams responded, “There’s 22 players in total? Well… just goes to show I definitely wasn’t watching.

“I’m not embarrassed by that,” he repeated to himself, several times.

Although Williams was unsure what the overall endgame of his posts would be, that hasn’t discouraged him from posting his lack of interest in numerous online sporting forums and news sites.

When asked if they had a response to Williams’ disinterest in the event, one sports enthusiast responded, “Simon Williams won’t be watching? Ok, that’s fine, that was always allowed.”

At press time, Williams was seen posting “Who?” in several articles about a ubiquitous, internationally recognised singer.
