"What If Animals Were Round?"

Hilarious and disturbing.

I felt sorry for the crocodile too. Though my thought about the cheetah and antelope was, "Okay, now maybe they can talk through their differences."

The bouncy cheetah was hilarious!

The way they both bounced off their heads was so awkward and sad. And hilarious!

Thrive to spite them

So I knew people were talking about the Warriors (it makes me think of "Warriors come out and plaaay") and honestly for awhile I had no clue what sport that was. Or I'd read it was basketball and promptly forget.

And actually I was thinking they won. But they lost. I could probably tell you the Cavs (if that's the right nickname) was a basketball team but probably not.

When it comes to college unless it's football I don't really pay attention.

I'm a bit better with baseball teams and knowing their names but honestly if you asked me NBA teams I could name off the top of my head: Nicks, Warriors, Cavs, Heat, and um... Lakers. and I'm pretty sure there are few prominent ones I'm blanking on.

Oh I looked up the team names. The Bulls and Celtics.

Other than that if you told me the Rockets were playing I'd have no clue.

Would it be as bothersome if it were "Sports thing" instead of "sportsball" .

I guess so, because my first reaction was "but they have actual names!"

I'm thinking "but that would mean googling to find out what sport". Which I could do and other people could do but a lot of times there's no reference besides a team name and I have a general idea of what sports are played when but not really. So if multiple sports are in season I may have no clue about what sport is being referenced.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

The crocodiles are my favorites.

I did not know it was basketball this weekend, because people kept talking about Cavs, which makes me think of guinea pigs (also called Cavys). I am unfamiliar with the team. I didn't care enough to google or post. I can tell when it is pro hockey or football most of the time by the team names, though.

I'm thinking "but that would mean googling to find out what sport".

Which has me back to wondering why people are posting about something if they don't care about it enough to even google. If someone doesn't give a shit about "sportsball", why even bring it up? (This is different than a conversation in person, where I suppose you could just say, "I don't really follow sports -- which playoffs are happening right now?")

I made it about 30 seconds before wanting to punch them.
