Kristi Yamaguchi is either an extremely gracious woman with nothing but the best of intentions, or is literally a Jedi-level master in the dark arts of Twitter savagery.
You be the judge.
Yamaguchi, a former Olympian and former competitor on “Dancing with the Stars,” sent out words of encouragement (we think) to fellow former Olympian and current DWTS competitor Nancy Kerrigan.
Yamaguchi said on Twitter:
So excited for you @NancyAKerrigan ! Can't wait to see you grace that ballroom floor, break a leg! ????????#DWTS

Lest we forget, Kerrigan had her leg clubbed at the behest of Tonya Harding, just before competition at the 1994 Olympics. Twitter responded accordingly.
