I NEVER watch the Neanderthal Bowl... out of defiance as well as complete disinterest. It is my second most hated day of the year, exceeded only by Bah-Humbug Day (Feb 14). Halloween is my favorite day of the year. I spent the evening working on an electronic circuit design.
Here are some interesting Aspie thoughts that were spawned this morning by my rejection of this year's Neanderthal Bowl:
Alphas don't care about people. They only want to compete, dominate & show ego. They want a punching bag.
Neanderthals are extinct.
Neanderthals have inferior brains.
Alphas play kiss a55, always trying to impress each other.
Alphas hide behind lies, ego and aggression.
Alphas hide behind mom's apron.
Ants run faster than steroid laden jocks.
My hero is a tiny ant about 2 mm long that I watch running along the rim of my tub. One day I estimated that this ant ran about 20-30 times its body length in one second. Translate that into human terms and a jock would have to run a mile in about 35-40 seconds to keep up with that lowly ant. All those alpha jocks are so weak by comparison.
I might also add that I do exercise regularly, taking long fast walks alone several times a week... while trying to avoid people and the egos that they insist on splattering all over the place.
This by far has got to be one of my favorite posts I have seen on this forum. Especially the part about the little ant.
With that said, I didn't watch it at all this year, I went shopping at Macy's with my bf and bought myself a purse to replace the one whose strap was hanging by all of two strings, a belt for the one that broke, and I threw in some saucy lingerie into the basket for good measure (hey, they DID say that guys like doing the naughty above watching the Super Bowl, didn't they? And mine doesn't like sports.. Soooo..)
In the end though, I forever associate things together in a big meshy grid in my brain, wrought with hyperlinked associations. Which my idea of the Super Bowl was forever tainted by this cake wreck:
Enjoy.
