Enough with the medal biting pictures. Don't do it, don't tell your kids to do it, it looks stupid and douchey. Not cute.
imagine one's life to be so empty something so trivial angers them enough to post about it anonymously on LRC.
New pose needed wrote:
If you want it to stop you need to invite some new pose for winners to use at their podium photo sessions.
Maybe wear it as a pirate's eye patch? Would that annoy you?
Flip it up on top of your head like a yarmulke. Take it off a swing around like a lasso. Stick it down your pants and scream your national anthem in the loudest voice possible. Drop your pants but dangle the medal in your hand so it strategically maintains tour decency for the camera. Women who win their second medal can bring their other one and do a topless variant of this. Don’t just bite it like a loser, actually eat the thing right there on the medal stand as silver and bronze watch in horror and/or amusement.

why on earth do you care how others celebrate and why on earth should people care about someone like you?
Only photos I ever posted were with NCAA trophies, can't bite those.
Same goes for C level races like Philadelphia's Broad Street Run or Illinois Marathon where some D level Ethiopian gets draped in his country's flag at the finish line.

it looks dumb not because it is silly, but because we already know the medal is fake. If it were gold, it would bend anyhow, the opposite of biting a coin to test it.
Bronze is not a valuable metal, it is useless compard to iron and turns green.
Medals should be big silver, medium silver, and small silver. Then they are worth something.
Lighten up, Dwight Schrute!

It was unique the first time somebody did it. Now it’s cringe. And can we please stop with the flags?????? If it’s a trial for a WA event have them put on a kit jacket. Far more impressive than dragging a sweaty flag around
Let's talk about something that would actually benefit the sport. Such as having competitors wear different color uniforms? Yes, I understand NIKE gets to make some money by doing this, but doesn't someone have a BRAIN ON ICE to think of an alternative approach such designating brands to make the various uniforms?
If you want to do it on your own by all means do it. If milesplit tells you to do it then don't.
Well now I know that all of the cringey social media medal biters are all posted up here on the LR boards and am I surprised? Kinda.
I'm not angry/bitter/emotional about medal biters, as the hating biters have suggested. It just looks played and cringe as others here have agreed, and y'all need to know that.
Pics of folks licking their medals could be fun.

There are those of us who think the way to deal with “I don’t like medal-biting pictures” is just to avoid posing for puctures while biting a medal.
And also being aware of the idiot density in the population, if you want to avoid seeing foolish things, stay off social media and abscond to a hermitage.

And the latter may not even do the trick for you.
Save that for those chocolate coins. Metal and tooth enamel don’t bode well
