    i wanted to redefine my entry as 'pop-culture' but i realized there are aspects of north american culture that repulse me that aren't connected to pop culture, although the latter certainly gets a concentrated dose of my spite.

    OOOOHHHHHH



    FUCKING CHRISTMAS MUSIC


    and yeah, I don't particularly like any kind of dessert, but I do love me some pie. Everything else can get thrown out for all I care.

    I also don't really like any kind of chocolate except for Lindt Dark chocolate. Milk and white chocolate are gross.

    Tell that to my parents who play it nonstop from Thanksgiving until New Years. Seriously, they have 800 christmas CDs.

    I much prefer savory foods to sweet foods anyday.

    whaaat come on

    desserts are fucking awesome, though i have an insatiable sweet tooth

    now that i think about it there are far fewer foods that i dislike than most people, since i've been fed all different kinds of food by my parents since i was a little kid and well fuck i'm half italian, and frankly my indian relatives "live to eat" too.

    the fuds i don't particularly like are brussel sprouts, vagina emisisons, raw carrots (though cooked carrots are greaaat), and not too much more than that.

    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 dunno... tribalism, competition by proxy, genuine appreciation of the skill levels, some sense of national or local pride, and some sports offer genuine depth

    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.

    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.)
