Subject: BREAKING: Disliking sports doesn't make you cool on the internet!

I know, right?
Jay acts like she's better than everyone else simply because she's a chick.
I hope she chokes to death.

Why do people have this attitude? I mean, I get it - in real life, lots of people around you like sports, and if you don't like them, it can get frustrating to hear people talk about them all the time as though it's something you should know and care about. But just because that's the case, doesn't mean you then have to come online and act like people who do enjoy sports are somehow inferior to you.

I mean, what's the deal? Why tear others and their interests down to make you feel better about yours? Some people like sports, and some people like video games or comics or fantasy books or obscure music or whatever, and some people like a combination of those. Not liking something doesn't make you cool or funny or desirable by itself - it's your personality that decides that.

I just don't get this "lol sports who would care about those lolol amirite guise????????" attitude. Live and let live, man. Plenty of people don't share your interests but let you have them anyway. Why not extend others the same courtesy?

P.S. COLTS ARE PLAYOFF-BOUND, YEAHHHHHHH BABY

The fact that I'm cool on the internet and the fact that I dislike sports are not related. They are both simply facts.

That having been said, I don't go around making a big deal of it (at least on the internet, where it's a lot easier to avoid people losing their minds over football), so perhaps this doesn't apply to me.

''Misanthropes have some admirable if paradoxical virtues. It is no exaggeration to say that we are among the nicest people you are likely to meet. Because good manners build sturdy walls, our distaste for intimacy makes us exceedingly cordial "ships that pass in the night." As long as you remain a stranger we will be your friend forever.''

''I want people to be sincere; a man of honor shouldn't speak a single word that doesn't come straight from his heart. ''

Sports are boring.

Bungie doesn't like French on their site.

I've never dislike sports to appear 'cool.' It just doesn't appeal to me - not entertaining.

Now, if they brought back the Gladiator games. I'll be singing a new song.

You're an idiot. Is calling someone a "troll" a schtick? Is calling someone a "retard" a schtick? No. Neither is calling someone a "phony."

Phony is a specific word used to cater to a specific group of people. In many cases, it's the most appropriate word to use. I'm not going to use a lesser word in place of it because you are under the false impression that it's a schtick.

Hmmm, nope.

You're a one-gimmick troll, and that's your gimmick.

Go derail someone else's thread with it, please.

Your a Hockey fan Bryan? Who would have thought.

I agree, personally, I'm not a sports guy, but I'm not going to shove that information in anyone's face. It's annoying and I don't care when people tell me about how much they care about sports, why would I assume it's in any way interesting the other way around?

  • 12.31.2012 2:07 PM PDT

Most of what I say is sarcasm, the rest is of the highest intellect.

BREAKING: Neither does making a thread about it.

Although I understand about the "don't think your opinion is the right one" deal but, then again, so do many people.

Your OP only applies to a small percentage of people, and it really didn't have to be said.

You're informing an already educated audience. Come on, don't be another captain obvious.

  • 12.31.2012 2:08 PM PDT

Well said!

I went to a fight once, and a hockey match broke out.

Mreh.

I would have read all of of it, but then I realized that you are inferior to me.

You're the one who derailed it. And I love how you just say "nope" instead of addressing my arguments.

A quick browse through the Flood more or less debunks this.
