what's there not to understand about sport
it's basically an exercise in letting off steam in a physical and skillful way
then what's the obsession with watching and following and caring about it
i get wanting to play it
i get appreciating the skill of it
i don't get caring about it
i dunno... tribalism, competition by proxy, genuine appreciation of the skill levels, some sense of national or local pride, and some sports offer genuine depth
plus it compensates my inadequate masculinity due to my unusually small penis/ego
Wouldn't it be the same as caring for anything else?
Like music, art, poetry, cooking, acting...
none of them are as ubiquitous or as passionately followed
there's just nothing with a following like sport has
probably
but as a male it's expected of me to love sports
i don't. i enjoy competition and i enjoy recreationally playing some sports, but i've never followed any and i don't understand why so many people obsess about it.

Dark chocolate has much more flavour than milk/white chocolate does.
White chocolate isn't that great either.
white chocolate isnt chocolate
It's healthier for you, too. I was only allowed dark chocolate while I was staying with my Aunt and it did grow on me a bit, but I still don't really enjoy it.
Though any kind of chocolate is starting to lose my interest.
Large coffee + very very rich dark chocolate = wonderful.
That's how I usually enjoy it.
Dark Chocolate is delicious, but it really is an acquired taste in spite of being better for you than normal chocolate
White chocolate indeed isn't actually chocolate, and it is worse for you than regular chocolate
White chocolate is ok to not like.
You should like dark chocolate because it goes with many things.
mr e is only saying that because malcolm x put him up to it
me tooQuote:

Oh, and blowjobs. Call me crazy but they are overrated. Nookie or nothing. Not to say I turn down bjs, but I'm not a huge fan.
just because gwahir hates and wants to kill his father and have sex with his mother doesn't mean he neccearily likes his mother either.
it could be that his oedipal tendencies are causing him to hate his mother for the vile, disordered sexual desire that he harbors for her.
(ah i can feel gwahir's dick become hard and increase in temperature and his balls retract at the mention of his mother's name. let me make a note of that.)
sycld you must inhabit a very strange, rarified world.
for the record i don't hate her at all she's very nice but i don't like her either
i just wanted to make a statement ok
kitschy canadiana
oh on that topic, anything australian (but especially australian film, tv and theatre).
even... chase?
no but only because he has amazing hair
but aussies can be hawt thoQuote:

This was back in about '89/'90 when they had good theme tunes, not like the faggy ones now.
Oh yea, I hate being corrected. I know I'm supposed to love it, but boy, can I not stand it.Quote:

Receiving gifts. I just don't like getting things as gifts, I don't feel like I've earned them. I love giving gifts though.
I agree.Quote:

Not sure if it was mentioned, but huge tits aren't that attractive. I like breasts that look good in proportion to the body.
really?Quote:

well, maybe that only applies to the gentry and above... you, after all, are just a yeoman at best.
Thanking people? Very British. Being gracious when thanked? Very British. Being comfortable with being thanked? Not the spirit of our nation.Quote:

If I really love the teacher/other authority figure, or it's one of the friends I'm competitive with, or I really feel I deserved it, then I can feel excellent. Otherwise, completely agreed.Quote:

I've been waiting for a thread like this, and now I have found it and will unleash fury.
1. Facebook Status', Myspace Bulletins, and Twitter
Look, I don't give a fuck what you are doing and I refuse to get online to see what it is. If I gave a shit, I would call you and ask you like fucking NORMAL PERSON.These sites are fueled by 2 kinds of people. 1) Egomaniacs, 2) Hot girls & and the guys who check their status every 2 minutes so they can convienently show up where the hot girls are, and try to fuck them
2. Girl friends/Dates who want me to watch their horrible shows
Grey's Anatomy, American Idol, Smallville, ect ect. Look, I don't ask you to watch Hockey, Football, or Star Wars. Infact, I prefer you to be as far as fucking possible from me when I am watching some stuff. Newflash: we don't have to do everything together. Infact, if I see you more than 5 nights a week, I want to kill myself.
3. Michael Bay
You have been ruining things I used to love for far too long. Infact, you suck so bad that it is cliche to hate you.
4. Indie Music Elitist
I enjoy "indie" music. I like Animal Collective. I enjoy Tropicalia music. I have many vinyl records. But, when I meet a person who likes Taylor Swift, loves modern rap, and has a 90s pop rock CD collection, I don't think of them as less of a person. And if I did, I would be more of a douche than the person I thought was a douche.
This is approaching TL;DR, but I have many more.
I also realize that this is merely a list of things that piss me off. Not really what is supposed to be awesome, but really sucks balls.
If I met someone who likes Taylor Swift, loves modern rap, and has a 90s pop rock CD collection I wouldn't mind, because some modern rap is funny or catchy, and 90s pop rock was awesome (until the late 90s).
If I met someone who likes Taylor Swift, loves modern rap, and likes nothing else I would think less of them as a person. Taste in music is a part of who you are too. Most people throw musical taste into their perception of a person.
Yeah, that was most of the 90 rock I was talking aboutQuote:

Blowjob porn.
I've only recently begun enjoying this. I think the point of it is: man, look how cockhungry that chick is. Deep down, everyone finds slutty hot.Quote:

I saw some blowjob porn that was first person from the girl's POV.
I turned it off when I realised how close it was to gay porn. I'd already came by then though.
Monty Python
Peep Show
Coffee
Disneyland Paris
Cats
Chris Jericho
I do however, enjoy blowjob porn...
if i needed someone else to take over the world with, i'd choose youQuote:

I didn't enjoy blowjob porn until after i'd recieved one.
I generally enjoy blowjob porn more than actual blowjobs. But that's mostly because I enjoy masturbation more than blowjobs.
was her mouth full of salt
I do tooQuote:
