    I never cared for team sports at all. I rather went to concerts and stuff like that. A friend told me that you have to see it live, it’s so much better. So he took me to a soccerball match. I thought: this is kind of cool, kinda like a festival, people buy merchandise and scatter around, random way too drunk people, all that jazz. Then the game started nd they introduced the players one by one. The home team, so “our” team was first. The fans yelled their names. Then the other team, Ireland was next. The commentators said their first name and the whole stadium yelled “hurensohn” (son of a bitch). I was like: okay, cringe, but everyone around me padded themselves on the back because how funny it was. It never got better, the game was boring as fuck and the fans were obnoxious as hell, calling every other player gay or a faggot or whatever weirdo thing. I had to separate from the group and just wandered around. I met some irish guys and they were super cool, so i just hung out with them on their side for the rest of the game. It was better, but still boring and a super cringefest.

    A few years later i won tickets to the spengler cup, and i didn’t want to go at first, because of my soccerball experience, but fuck it, it was free and i could just leave. Despite not really liking or understanding the sport, it was waaaaaay waaaay better. People were nicer, more respectful abd i had an overall good time.








  • I never judge people who got scammed or tricked or whatever. It happens. But getting scammed by one of the dumbest people on the planet is almost an achievement. I’m not even hyperbolic here, i have not seen a person making so much mouth noises and saying so little at the same time. That guy tricked you? Not even a smart and charming guy? Pathetic.

    People always wonder why Vince McMahon get away with all his shit. And i did too, because i kept up with his monstrosities for quite some time. But even watching his netflix documentary, and knowing what an absolute monster he is, i just could not help but finding him weirdly charming. I don’t know what level of charisma he’s blessed with but it’s almost creepy. Donald has absolutely non of that.
