Adam Rippon just brilliantly sassed the judges at the Winter Olympics
As if Adam Rippon wasn't already the hero of the Winter Olympics, he's gone and sassed the figure skating judges.
Serving up a not-so-subtle jab at the judges during the men's short program on Thursday, the 28-year-old Team USA figure skater officially solidified his position as Pyeongchang Olympic King.
Mid-routine, skating to "Let Me Think About It," by Ida Carr and Fedde le Grande, Rippon timed a stop at the judges panel, taking the moment to extend the sassiest single finger you've ever seen in your life. It was an undeniable, ice-cold serve.

"I might not be the best, but I'm the most fun, so I think that tonight I'm really going to enjoy myself," he told NBC before the event. Damn right.

Rippon has had quite the week, not only throwing shade on the ice but bravely speaking out about his brutal starvation diet, in an attempt to help others having a similar experience.
Look, if you're not following him on Twitter, do it immediately.
