| I do so dislike the Olympics but I love the World Cup. It's the world's game and anyone in their little ratholes, in their Dakotazona, in their wherever &c-- to anyone looking at the event incredulously and with shock, doubling down on ignorance of the green pitch & scoreless games, I just have to say: it happens every four years. In spite of denials this is the part YOU are playing in the World Cup, that's all that is. You can't escape it.
It reminds me of the crazy poll numbers Obama had right around his inauguration, like 70% approval or something. Yeah, that made sense (well, it mades sense if you know how racist this country is, i.e.: it's a national: "some of my best friends/a credit to his"...should have been embarrassing but at least it was hilarious.)
Soon enough the country woke up and went back to pissing their Depends to shreds. Can we yet safely ask to them to change their diapers! What holds them there in the fetid cotton? Hypno-helmet or gentleman's agreement? Cosmic cube or just sleep deprivation?
Also, it is 10 years this summer that I quit Royal Trux. I guess that kinda ended it, kinda. But what keeps me up nights now is wondering if someone like Gambit or Captain America would be allowed to donate blood. Could the 'Super Soldier Serum' be contagious that way? Or can mutations be spread that way?
Who knows? We have a sickness for answers in this country, I know, but it's harmless to ask questions such as these and demand absolutes. It might even be constructive. In these cases (and not the others) someone knows, it's in the big Marvel vault. |
