Johnny Weir

Whether witty or wise, controversial or charming, shocking or silly, sweet or sassy, provocative or profound, inspiring or infuriating--or any combination of those--Johnny Weir, the three-time U.S. Champion, two-time Olympian, and World medalist figure skater, almost always says something worth quoting whenever he commentates a skating competition, makes a TV appearance, gives an interview, holds a press conference, writes, tweets, or is caught on video. His quotes needed to be collected and shared; hence this blog.

I was on George Lopez last night, and it was always my dream to kind of ride a yak, and I was telling everyone during the Olympics that I wanted to ride a yak. So George Lopez rented a yak for the day, and I mounted it on national television.

[Peter Carruthers: You mean, you got on...]

I got on it, but that sounds worse than mounted.

Blogger's note: This conversation was followed by a comment from Johnny about the yak's behavior which can be found here.
