How much do you miss sports??


10/10

reply

Professional sports are among a very few things in this world I consider myself a natural, lifelong, active enemy of. On the contrary, it gives me a modicum of sadistic glee to know that they are cancelled and fans have to figure out something else to do. Muwahaha! >:-D

Guess what's not cancelled mfers! Friggin' art!!! Booyah grandma!!!!!

^^^This!!!^^^

A lifelong enemy of? That seems like strong sauce, especially coming from you, ZC, although I'm 100% with you in being a big fan of art! πŸŽ‰ (Does this make me a grandma? πŸ˜„)

Spectator sports is a big yawn for me, but I get there are loads of people who pretty much live for it and love it. Who am I to begrudge them their pleasures because I have zero interest in it? 😊

reply

Yup, pro sports are the target of my strongest available sauce! This is where I'd give my supervillain origin speech standing atop a two story drum of acid if I were looking to brawl off some pent up steam, but the moment finds ya boi in a mellow mood. Were I not you might find me haranguing on how it is that, over a lifetime I've suffered much at the hands of that which is the antithesis of all that I am and stand for: organized sport, jock pieces of shit, the ingrown wig on the ass of culture that is the commercial professional sports spectacle, its symbiotic capitalist parasitism, the stupefying preoccupation and antagonism of its zombie sheep devotees... I begrudge with full force and total impunity! ...But I won't say these things. Not today. πŸ™‚

Loving art makes you a COOL grandma! A grandma in shades. 😎

reply

I'm not a grandma, but I'll take cool and in shades (maybe), shades or not. In fact at this point I'm thinking no shades is by default cooler than none.

reply

You're right. We'll just say it makes you one of the nekkid-eyed good ones.

reply

So you never played on the volleyball team?

reply

LOL! I actually was FORCED to join a tennis team one summer as a boy. The experience was scarring for me – just one of an endless supply out of a lifetime of moments that shaped my scorn.

reply

tennis can be traumatic 😊

reply

Hahaaaa, you can say that again, Jack!

reply

A little bit yes, in my case football (soccer for you)

I hate sport so if the situation wasn't so dire, I'd be celebrating!! ;)

sports is the ultimate escapism

reply

Every fiber of my being begs to differ with such vehemence that I bleed!

The NBA was my soap opera. I miss it a lot. Plus, there were a few shows I'd watch, which are no longer going on.

reply

The Raptors were playing so well - we were all looking forward to a Raptors/Lakers final.

reply

Lol, sportsball fanaticism is toxic AF, and I'm glad its gone for now.

People need to cultivate real hobbies. Hobbies that can turn into a surprise life skill that could end up being a fall back when non-essential jobs dry up during pandemics.

reply

I do, especially soccer. I'll have to wait months to see if my country qualifies to the UEFA Euro 2020.
I also can't play now, as it's a team sport.

reply

NUh. Back to work. We are not going to be famous doing that,
