16 funniest 'Olympics' memes that will leave your abs sore from laughing

The Olympics is a ceremony that goes back decades, which means that it's only likely, expected, even, that every four years, at least a handful of memes take the internet by storm.

Just last year, several memes came out that left the internet in splits, such as the one where Olympian Norwegian simmer Henrik Christiansen could not stop obsessing over the muffins they served in Paris, where the games were held.

Or, does anyone else remember that one Turkish shooter who casually strutted up to his mark, one hand in his pocket, and fired? He even managed to come in second.

And so, with a sea of funny memes stemming from the Olympics out there, we've rounded up all of the best ones for you to enjoy— and some of these might even make you laugh so hard you develop abs!
