We're a little late, but your on the clock.

Never heard or used either. Vertical hunger at least sounds like it could be actual slang.

Absolutely no clue. A "grom" is Californian/Aussie slang for young surfers/skaters, but I don't think that fits in this context. It's likely a made up or outdated slang term. Edit: I guess he could be a beach bully, basically saying "let's snake a wave from a young surfer."

Happy to answer them.

Well, we don't all live by the beaches. Surfing is a very popular recreation activity of course, but I'd imagine it isn't that high I've never been surfing in my life in fact.

By the way, happy to answer any questions you may have about life in California during the breaks

Never hurts to have a backup!

Mainly drinking and tacos in the United States

...and that's break #1 everyone. See you in 45 minutes for the second session.

I'm informed enough to know that Cinco de Mayo isn't Mexican independence day (It's when y'all repelled the French advance if I'm not mistaken)

I got my movements mixed up after reading mission history for the opening ceremony. My Mexican history is weaker than it should be honestly

Thank you (appreciate your kind words @mrv86), is on the clock

said "take me back daddy, please." Not in the spirit of 1821, sir.

@heywoodu American Armenians tend to have a different phonetic spelling perhaps?

Beck grew up in a majority Hispanic neighborhood of Los Angeles. The song is basically what walking around his neighborhood was like in his view.

I'd say that's more true about Greek and Armenian names. Of course, if you're familiar with both cultures (in both cases), then you're probably not making that mistake.

I feel pretty confident.

Thank You Greece, you're on the clock

Always a pleasure to have Rodger Federer announcing a jury's vote
