If people were regularly screaming in bars about who was the best Star Trek captain I'd probably get sick of Star Trek tbh.

I'm up at 4 AM listening to Bowie's ★. Got up for quiet time without the kids, and this was the next album in rotation.

Sport(s) has this slimy rectum blossom that makes me retch.

If it’s a sports bar, I say go for it. If it’s a restaurant or the cozy little pub down the street, I may throw something at you.

On a side note though, why do people yell? I mean I get it if you’re actually in the stadium but why do people yell at sports on TV?

ok well yes itll be a sports bar. gotta have the proper tv setup that a family restaurant or pub wouldn't have.

id say its comparable to everyone singing along at a party. It's the primal spirit of camaraderie that gets the fun times flowing.

Because there is a lot of excitement and tension involved and I've never seen anyone act like that in a restaurant. Pubs yes, but that's a big part of what pubs are for.

The excitement makes sense if you have money riding on it but holy **** is it annoying.
