But those people still exist and they contribute to the annoyance that people like Janzsoon and I have towards sports.

I bet Urban does ;)

Yeah. Some are Bud Light-chugging rednecks that don't try and force their interests on everyone else! :laughing:

I'm not saying they are, but there are a lot more sports watchers who are like that than any other hobby or interest that I can think of. And even when people are low-key and friendly about it, there's always that weird implicit assumption that every other person in the world follows sports and knows what they're talking about. I can't even imagine making those assumptions about my music interests with random people.

True.

These people don't look bored. But ya, life without sports is just fine too even though I can't relate to it.

Dick.

But seriously, being a Boston fan is fun.

This century we've won 3 World Series of baseball, 1 Stanley Cup in hockey, 1 NBA championship, and 4 Super Bowls.

I can't imagine how exciting it would be for people who live close to me to win a few games.

I can't imagine how any living thing could hear Metal Machine Music and think "yeah, I enjoy this. This is good music that I should spend my time listening to"

@Chula Likewise.

@YD you're missing out, but to each their own.
