Let me level with you everybody. I fucking hate the Super Bowl. Though I've started to have a slight appreciation for sports in general -only because I work with Rich whom is a sports uber-fan- I cannot pretend for a second that I dont fucking hate the Super Bowl and any other huge sporting event.
First off, working in a grocery store automatically makes you hate holidays/important days/"non-important days that a bunch of asshats want to make seem like they're important" days (the Super Bowl is one of these)/etc. It seems like everyone and their fucking mother has to go hog fucking wild with food for these days. And every year, on these days, it seems like store management successfully FUCKS THINGS UP. Usually by CUTTING HOURS. Like say, the example of... TODAY! THey decided cutting 6 hours off the bakeshop schedule, on Super Bowl Sunday, was an amazing idea. So I spent all fucking day by myself, amidst a sea of retarded mother fuckers asking "DO YOU HAVE ANY MORE SUPER BOWL CAKES?!" "DO YOU HAVE ANY PUMPERNICKEL BREAD!?!" "CAN I GET CIRCUMCISED HERE!?!" "IS MY MOTHER A WHORE!?!" and so on so forth. Then there's the people that get bitchy with you when you dont have anything left that they want. "IT'S SUPER BOWL SUNDAY! SHOULDNT YOU HAVE THIS!?! ARGABLARGIMAFUCKINGIDIOTARGHHH!!!" At this point I'd like to casually point out to the person that I honestly dont give a fuck what Sunday this is, and that if they didnt wait until fucking 3'o'clock in the afternoon to shop for their stupid parties that start at 4, they'd've fucking HAD the things they wanted, as in the morning I had a whole shit load of stuff on hand. Thats the only good thing about these sorta days. Anything you put out, these assholes'll buy.
Anyhow, onward we must trudge. I hate Super Bowl Sunday because it's NOT FUCKING IMPORTANT. It is NOT front page news, yet we'll see it plastered all over every newspaper tomorrow. It is NOT something to spend hours and hours of television time on, yet the news tonight will SOLELY be about it and how this player did or how that player did. It is NOT something to waste billions of dollars on, yet if one person collected every penny spent on the Super Bowl and made off of Super Bowl crap, they'd be the richest person alive. It is NOT a competitive event for people who arent actually playing in it, unlike these fucking idiots would like you to believe. I'd be able to believe it's competitive if these fuckers were down there getting stomped on by those 350lb giants and shit, but honestly, a fucking video game is far more competitive for those at home.
Anyhow, I just fucking hate the Super Bowl in general. It's useless, and does nothing but piss me off.
Yeah, this rant kinda lost it at the end. Thats what I get for surfin 4Chan at the same time... --_--
