Olympic Laziness

Hey, ding-dong. You might not be the brightest bulb, but even you can understand this. The joke sets up a contest for laziness. The punchline reveals the ultimate lazy move isn't winning the gold (because that requires getting up on the podium), but intentionally coming in fourth to avoid the minor physical exertion of the award ceremony. The irony is that the participant exerted just enough effort to lose perfectly. Based fact: You probably reuse the same paper plate all week, proving you're already an Olympic-level lazy person.
