Who Gives A Shit About Sports? March 14, 2005

Who gives a shit about sports?

I for one definitely do not give a shit about sports.

I will sometimes allow myself to pretend to give a shit about sports, but in fact I do not give a shit about sports.

It’s March Madness time, but I do not give a shit about that.

The Boston Red Sox won the World Series, defeating the hated New York Yankees. Except for how I do not give a shit.

Next year is the World Cup in Germany. I always watch when Italy plays, but I truly do not give a shit.

Don’t get me started on NFL football, and how I do not give a shit about that. I could post a whole blog entry just on how I do not give a shit about NFL football. I sometimes pretend I give a shit about the New Orleans Saints, but really I do not.

To sum up, who gives a shit about sports? I, for one, do not.

Whenever we watch Curb, my girlfriend gets mad at me. She likes the show. We laugh, we have a good ol’ time, but at the end she gets mad at me, every single time.

I hate drum solos. I February 27, 2005

I hate drum solos.

I don’t care if whether its rock and roll or jazz, I hate drum solos. Nothing is more annoying than listening to some fine jazz and then this boring caucophonous five minute drum solo happens, which sounds nothing like the song it’s in the middle of. I understand that its all about improvisation, rhythm, play, fun, virtuosity, etc. But the effect is something disjoined and pointless.

I guess I’m not a huge fan of any true solo — even guitar solos if they really feel gratuitous. But usually the section of classic rock songs known as guitar solos usually have the full backing of the whole band. It’s not just the one instrument, and the music usually is in keeping with the feel of the song.

It’s like you’re listening to Beethoven, but then we have to break for a 15 minute kazoo solo. And everyone just accepts that with a straight face.

“Fine kazoo solo, really fine.” Clap, clap, clap.
