Well that's certainly a possibility , I never went out of my way to find good guac(just the stuff you get with meals in run of the mill food chains) so this could very well be true and I am certainly open to trying for better food . I'll look up a good place and give it another try I guess . I think baseball is boring af . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love baseball, but absolutely get if someone doesn’t like it because they think it’s boring. It’s a time consuming and slow paced game(most of the time) that’s definitely not for everyone. I think soccer/futbol is pretty boring to watch. Especially since most games I watch are of the U.S. team. Although I will say that I was very disappointed they choked their way out of the World Cup. It is fun to be a part of that even know they never really have a legitimate chance. I’ll never forget Donovan’s goal in 2010 against Algeria in extra time. Good times.

Yeah , I tend to think of a baseball game as more of an event than a sports match ,you're there for the atmosphere and festivity . At least that's what I enjoyed. The world cup has a special magic about . That's why we still love it even tho it's owned by the vilest hive of scum and villainy . I got one , I hate champagne.

I’ll never forget Donovan’s goal in 2010 against Algeria in extra time. Good times. I've never been a soccer fan, but have tolerated it because my brother/roommate is really into. And even before I lived with my brother, I had friends in DC that pretended they were soccer fans during the World Cup. So I'm actually fairly educated on most of the contending teams - and yes, I remember Donovan's goal. Was drunk as fuck way too early at an Irish pub on the outskirts of Tampa. Anyway, this is my way of saying Tunisia is in all likelihood not going to make passed group play, but I'll still be into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not terribly familiar with his TV work but I love his stand up. Unpopular: Top Gear reached its creative peak long before Clarkson and co left. After the arctic special it really wasn't worth watching anymore. I covered this in the first thread but any chance to shit on Clarkson is welcome day by me! Top Gear was never worth watching because it was dull and presented by three utter dicks. Eta; sports, the only stuff I can find the interest to watch is gymnastics and athletics. Sometimes swimming if it’s a good line up. Everything else just bores me. Oh and watching Paralympic athletes compete is an experience in itself, just so inspiring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theda Baratheon Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 I’m not interested in sports for the most part football is fucking BORING to watch. Rugby is OK - but I still get a bit bored watching it however I recently got into watching roller derby games and would love to take part on that I also went to a live ice hockey game with friends once and had a surprisingly great time??? Would def watch that live again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckwheat Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 I had no idea actually liking ABBA was unpopular. I guess my whole music taste is unpopular on this forum. Also, yes, football is boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isis Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 I stopped watching football in 2007 while I was working full time and doing my MSc part time (prior to that I was super heavily into it, as evidenced by my presence in threads on this board pre-dating 2007) AND THEN... I just never watched any at all after that. I don't miss it whatsoever. I think it's a big stupid waste of money and I wouldn't care in the slightest if it ceased to exist tomorrow.

Mark Antony Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Seonfeld absolutely holds up. Still hilarious as ever. Can watch the re runs wheneve they’re on. Also tv may be getting better and better but Sopranos is still unrivaled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vin Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 I always enjoyed sports , played soccer , basketball and football growing up , tried hockey but was shit at it (it's really difficult! Nictarion is right , they do make it look easy) As for watching, I only watch big games and mostly pick up news through the grapevine at work . Sopranos is excellent. Here's a new one , I hate shrimp . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbunting Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Seinfeld was and still is great. Soccer is boring as hell. I have only watched one game in my life and that was basically because I had to. We were in Germany for work and it was the German championship? BVB and Munich(?)... I just know our host and town was for BVB and so we rooted for them. I will say it was a fun time and the whole bar/restaurant was closed and rearranged to watch it and it was fun as hell. The game, not so much. Baseball is also boring, have to admit that. Haven't watched a game in almost two years. Detroit Tigers suck so my excitement level is gone. ABBA, eh...I can listen to a song or two but will never seek it out. I hate whiskey. Just the smell makes me want to vomit. I'm sure it has nothing to do with excessive drinking of it in the past... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cas Stark Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 I agree Seinfeld holds up. The new star wars movies are weak. All of them. I have never heard of people not liking corn before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadlines? What Deadlines? Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Seinfeld is weak. 'Enjoyed them when they were fresh; no desire to ever see one again. It's the MCU of half hour sitcoms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each episode was an adventure and could stand on its own, yet it still managed to be serialized. Plus the amount of talent that worked on it is breathtaking. Weiner, Winter, Burgess.

DMC Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 The Wire was inconsistent, culminating in a very disappointing final season. But the 4th season is probably my favorite season of television ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
