The only time I ever cried over a sporting event was the 1980 Miracle game. I was almost 14 years old, and chanting "USA! USA!" was new, not cheesy.
You've got my support. Just think of me as...as your... You know, I'm searching for 'supportive things' and I'm coming up all bras.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The only time I ever cried over a sporting event
Is there meaning in those words?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
So. Frelling. Bored.
How's your dad, sweetie?
The only time I ever cried over a sporting event
Wow. I choke up at the torch run, never mind any actual sporting triumph.

Seems to be fine. They had to put in two stents, so he's in the hospital overnight, but I spoke to him about an hour ago and he sounds fine. Just means that I'm stuck in San Diego overnight and bored out of my head.
I'm a horrible son.

No! Maybe...overly honest? Don't worry...you'll have plenty of time to practice "Of course, I don't mind."

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Okay, so Adelphia says that they can give me digital cable at 63 per month plus tax and bullshit charges no one understands. Add cable internet at 47 plus tax and bullshit charges.
So I figure 137 bucks per month. I can get rid of aol and a phone line saving me 50 bucks a month. I already spend 44 on crappy cable.
So it'd be another $42 per month for getting digital cable (and really, i can't tell the difference) and cable internet.
Hm. I wonder if this is worth it.
What say the peanut gallery?

It's weird--certain songs can have me sobbing, if I'm PMSing, Hallmark commercials can set me off, but sports stuff? Only that once.

Um, no. Not for being bored when you're near your parents during a health crisis. That doesn't qualify as horrible, not at all. Is there somewhere you can watch the Olympics tonight, or would that not be fun for you?
