I’m very sorry to announce this to the rest of the country & the world, but a transitional logo has been chosen for the 2034 Salt Lake City Olympics & this is it. Why does it say Utah? We don’t know. Why is the font illegible? Yet another mystery. Did they go ugly on purpose? Again, no idea.

Last Christmas I drew the woman who always microwaves fish in the break room for Secret Santa. I bought a second-hand microwave for her office so she could cook it there instead. HR reprimanded me. I'm willing to bet it's because she is in HR.
