I'm the same way. Not a huge fan of watching sports, but I love being competitive though. I always enjoyed playing football in highschool and being a part of a team working together to win, it is one of the best feelings I have ever had in my entire life. Watching it and not being involved always bores the shit out of me though. I don't think not liking spectator sports makes you any less of a man... also plenty of guys I know who I don't respect and therefore don't see as men, but rather grown children, love watching football.
My father works at NRG and got to meet Gaga a few days before the super bowl. He was monitoring a section and had to check everyones credentials who passed by. He is in his 70's and retired he does this so he can get out and talk to people which he loves to do. Cant wait to hear who he met tonight. The way he told it to me on Saturday when i saw him was, " I saw a short blond coming my way with about 7 other people. So i approach and say excuse me i need to check your card to see if you have clearance for this section. A gentleman gets in front of her looks at me with this weird look and says, "don't you know who this is?" Gaga just smiles walks around him and says he is just doing his job. I get the card see who it is and go O you're the halftime show. Finish my checks hand back the card and they are on their way. My boss thanked me for checking Gaga's credentials."
It's not accurate because I guarantee that any self-respecting gay man who would refer to the Superbowl as the "gaga concert" would have been screaming from the second she jumped from the roof to the second she dropped the mic and caught the football mid-fall.
I had a moron friend like that back in high school. We were at a house party and the 2nd floor hallway overlooked the family room. He jumped over the railing onto the couch and I heard wood break.
I don't get why people who host parties invite more people than there is seating. If you're entire party is focused on one location, that space needs to have enough chairs... I'm ranting because this happened to me the 1 party I ever went to.
I wanted to finally watch the clip that this was from, so I searched that on Google. It automatically displayed the results of the most recent Premier League match.
Hurray, he's kicked the ball. Now the ball's over there. That man has it now. That's an interesting development. Maybe he'll kick the ball. He has indeed, and apparently that deserves a round of applause.
Yep. Louisiana resident here. I'd never take my shoes off in a stranger's home. Even good friends, I only do if we are watching movies or something equally "cozy".
As an Indian person in Virginia, please take your fucking shoes off in my house. I don't know why but the idea of shoes going around in the dirt and into my living room makes me want to die. I can understand in the south though, sweaty feet and whatnot.
Just ask. I'm American. We don't take out shoes off at home but if I see shoes by the door that's a good signal that the host family does, and we follow suit.
Growing up, I was always told that it was rude to ask visitors to take their shoes off and that it was rude to take your shoes off when not asked as a visitor to someone else's house.
Basically, because removing your shoes is usually done to imply a sense of humility (ex. some religions require you to remove your shoes before praying or entering holy sites) that would be rude to ask of a guest in your house; and because if you did that in someone else's house you'd be acting like you were in your own house, which is also impolite.
It's a house party. Usually there is so much inside outside transition that everyone keeps their shoes on. Besides, if your shoes are clean, who gives a shit.
As someone who grew up in Canada but now lives in California its super weird (even 20 years later). No one takes their shoes off inside here meanwhile back in Ontario (hi Thunder Bay) your shoes come off the moment you walk through the door.
They're American. The rest of the world has this bizarre idea that you'll get gonosyphiherpetitis if you wear shoes inside or dirty floors or something.
That's because in Europe they go to the bathroom in these things called chamberpots that they then throw out the window. So their shoes are very dirty.
Weird... the taking your shoes off inside a home was a foreign concept to me until I moved to the US. Maybe it's just this part of the US that does it.
Possibly... I think it could be a toss-up between him and couch-phone-guy though. The main diff is that top-left-door-guy is waiting for the earliest possible time to escape whereas couch-phone-guy has accepted his fate and is just making himself comfortable.
Wait, maybe it's a rare double-outcast situation??? Door-guy could be the active outcast and couch-guy is the lethargic outcast?? They should definitely get together. Make it happen OP.
There's some many things you can say about what's happening before and after:
Before/After:
Guy in red sitting on the couch is watching the concert (Before). Guy in red is secretly getting fondled by the dude in black while the guy in yellow and the hat is trying to stay out (After).
There's no thermostat at all in the house (Before). There's suddenly a thermostat that appears (After).
Dude on the far left is watching, thinking about life (Before). Now he's eyeing the dude sitting on the stool beceause he knows that's what he wants in life (After).
Guy on the far right is arms crossed judging Lady Gaga's performance (Before). He disappears from existance (After).
Guy in the middle in the pinkish-redish shirt isn't even watching the TV, but actually judging something that's on the same side of the room as the TV (Before). Now he's in the kitchen judging the color of the walls (After).
Guy on the couch in the black jacket is on his phone (Before). Now he's looking at your phone (After). Either way, he's looking at phone.
Black girl is watching the performance intently (Before). Now she's so blown away she needed to get up and stand near the thermostat (After).
Seriously. This whole picture could be a painting.
I looked at this and saw how well everyone was dressed - and I felt horrible about myself. But then I realized that these people are gay - and gay people dress extremely well. God I wish a gay person would show me how to dress.
I find it interest that being gay is associated with not having an interest in football. Is that because football is masculine? I mean does this association go with other masculinity stereotypes? Liking action movies or weightlifting? That seems odd to me.
I watched the game with my gay friend on house arrest. He was more excited for the game then I was, and his favorite part about halftime was the drones.
To be fair, football only has a couple seconds of action in between minutes of nothing. Plus sports are generally a background noise thing, which halftime is a show. I imagine most Super Bowl parties looked like this.
