It's hilarious when people start talking football with my SO. They assume since he's a guy, he must watch it, so he stands there with the cutest blank look and if someone asks him what he thinks, he just says, "Oh, I agree with you."
Last year we were buying stuff at a store and I watched this conversation play out:
Cashier: Who do you think will win the game?
SO: I'm not sure. Who's playing?
Cashier, giving him a strange look: It's the Superbowl.
SO: Oh, yeah, um, that's right.
Cashier: So who's got your bet?
SO: Uh . . . . . . . . . . our team?
Cashier: What?
SO: Um . . . well . . . so who did you say was playing again?
Luckily we have tivo. Dave is at least content to watch the games when it is most convienent for the rest of the family and he loves that he can fast forward through anything he doesn't want to bother watching.
fowltemptress: Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you walk into an open sewer and die.
I LOVE it!!!!!
Boyd, to answer your question, I'm NEVER lonely. I have BYC.
Besides, DH watched only the Superbowl, not the rest of the ultra-boring stuff, and he only watches the super bowl so he knows what they're talking about at work (and probably cheerleaders and half-time commercials is what they're talking about).
