An Athlete's "Not impressed" pose on getting second place at the summer Olympics gets Presidential Attention


Let's do it
At the 2012 Olympics, 16 year old American Athlete, Maroney was captured in a scrunched-up scowl image showing her disappointment after learning she’d earned the silver medal in the individual vault final at the 2012 Olympics. The image soon went viral, spreading rapidly across the Internet and spurring a meme known as “McKayla Maroney is not impressed.”

The 2012 U.S. Olympic gymnastics team stopped by the White House on Thursday for a meet and greet with President Obama. But before the team (also known as the Fierce Five) left, Obama pulled aside McKayla Maroney, who placed second on vault this summer, to discuss “the face.”
The American President admitted doing a similar face at least once a day. There and then, side by side the two posed with their lips twisted setting off another set of viral memes.
Surely now, both the President and Maroney are not impressed!
