    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.

    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.

    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.

    what's there not to understand about sport

    it's basically an exercise in letting off steam in a physical and skillful way

    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...

    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.
