the suffering olympics

The pointless endeavor of comparing different tragedies or histories of oppression to one another by attempting to quantify the suffering and/or injustice of each, so as to determine which tragedy was more tragic, or which oppressed peoples were more unjustly oppressed.
Jamie: Did you heard about the bombing in Boston?
Frank: The Arab world suffers violence like this every day as a result of US foreign policy.
Jamie: ...let's not play the Suffering Olympics.

Alan: The fight for LGBT rights is this generation's great civil rights movement.
Rob: Their is no comparison between the struggles African-Americans faced and the struggle of the LGBT community.
Allison: Neither compare to the struggle women have faced.
Alan: Do we really need to play the Suffering Olympics?

Post Olympic Depression

The feeling of sadness, melancholy, and despair after the Olympics are over. Sometimes resulting with laying around all day moping in your house, or watching video highlights of the Olympics to cheer yourself up.
Dude: I'm gonna be so bummed after the closing ceremonies, watching the last 50k cross country ski race broke my little heart.

Brah: Yeah, I am definitely going to experience post Olympic depression when they are over. I will probably sulk and and mope for a week. Maybe I'll watch some curling highlights to brighten my mood.....

Hey! Hand me a Snickers bar! It's kind of boring out here on the curling rink. But at least I'm living the dream.

Here you go, eh, my olympic "athlete".

You didn't put air quotes around "athlete" did you?
