So I found this on my "latest" projects (last edited more than a month ago) on Pixlr. I remember that I basically rejected this one because it was bland and unfunny, I found it again, on the sixth day of July 2023 and realized that it's actually better than I remembered it being, still not funny, but here I am submitting it anyway. All I did was switch the zebra and crocs with humans and chicken, and made it the "2004 Summer Olympics" and switched it from swimming to running, and that's basically it.
