    Ay-ay-ay! This is easy-peasy!

    @Philippa Marlowe: They also had, GET THIS, festively flavoured potato chips:

    During the World Cup, they had Spanish-coloured M&Ms when I was in Spain. I'm picking out the yellow and green ones out of my bowl now to make it seem more festive, but shouldn't all the American food companies have this kind of marketing down already?

    Um... have the football gods taken the sports talk away from the womenz?

    um... not a fan of the National Anthem of Pop-singery

    Sooo, I'm in Europe. It's 11.45 pm now and I'm waiting for the game to start. Oh yeah. And I have to go be a teacher tomorrow morning. YEY!

    @Wandell: Can I get one of those penis things? They seem like good birth-control.

    Ok, she's beautiful. She can act. She can dance. But it makes me smile just a little bit to know that she can't sing.

    @See you suckers later: Okay, because comparing men and women as equal sports players right now is completely fair. When women are rarely encouraged to pursue physical activities or sports at all in their youth, and are in quite the unsupported minority when they do, it's completely the same as boys being encouraged…

    @tobasquo: 2000-2003, but I went to college in Europe, so I stopped pursuing it seriously then. I miss it SO MUCH, though. The women's sports in the UK (where I was) lacked any support from universities or student societies. It sucked.

    @poppanegyric: Well, I don't really care if he can play football or not, he's still a douche. He offhandedly disregarded an entire gender's football playing skills, so, yeah, I'd still challenge him, if he thinks that women can't hold their own in the sport.

    You know what? I have an idea. Let's ban men from playing sports. This is why you can't have nice things, boys.

    I'd like to challenge these two asshats to a soccer match. I've played since kindergarten, and when I was in high school I was recruited by the Olympic Development Program, and was in the national under-21 pool. So, suck on that, you misogynist douchecanoes.

    Bull effing shit.
