Yeah, but some things are just shit and deserve to be called such. I'm thinking grown men who oil themselves down and wear silly costumes to roll around on the floor with each other is either gay porn or, um....shit.

I used to be a huge fan of wrestling, along with a stack of my friends when I was a bit younger, and it was a hell of a lot of fun to follow. It's not difficult to see why, as it just takes the rivalries that all sports (or "sports") are built upon and distills them into this crazy event where you often really don't know what to expect. That said, I don't really like it anymore, but I don't have a problem with people who do.

I find sweaty nerds who go to metal concerts in Australia dressed all in black in 40 degree heat to be pretty odd, not to mention what goes on on stage, but that doesn't mean it's shit. I think you just need to accept that you don't get it, and leave the crazy people to go watch the half naked dudes jump on each other in peace.

Or alternately you can get wildly drunk and go to the WWE (or even better some low level tour) when it swings by next time, and see what people are talking about, because seeing the shit live is pretty damn fun if you don't take it too seriously.

Thats true for most American sports. I doubt NASCAR would even exist if it wasn't for the fact that the rednecks who watch it(no offense to any of you if you're a fan) can get trashed while watching the cars go in infinite laps.

Also, I challenge anyone to stand down by the track as those cars go by and keep your heart rate from spiking every time. That said I'm no fan, but it's not hard to understand why people enjoy nascar live once you've done it.

This thread has turned into a bad Jeff Foxworthy routine.

Just because something spikes your heart rate doesn't mean its fun. For example, dropping the soap while you're around.

"... one time I was pushing CCCToad's head into the kitchen sink, filthy, soapy brown water splashing everywhere with bits of vegetables and porkfat washing up on the counter like driftwood and dead jellyfish onto a beach, and while using my free hand to slap his flailing arm away from the knife block, him gurgling and me screaming, 'DROWN MOTHERFUCKER,' I noticed the painful raging erection that I had sprouted, and I knew, I just knew, that this would be a weekly ritual, our weekly ritual. It all started with CCCToad leaving a bar of Lava soap on the floor of the shower that morning, not even bothering to pick it up; when I confronted him about it, he demanded that I 'talk degree to him.' He knows just how to turn me on.
