What's everyone doing for the Superbowl anyway?
You know, running with the politicos, the queers, and the feminists, it's easy to come off as all butch. I mean, I am familiar with guns, I'm big-ish, I am meanly sarcastic, and I follow professional sports. My friends find that amusing and sometimes ask me to speak on behalf of all "normal" white guys.
Usually I watch the Super Bowl at my tough-ass co-worker's house. The one who used to drum for the almost-famous all woman punk/metal band. She would cook meat on the grill and make chili. She couldn't host this year so I'm just watching it with another male friend. We just checked in about food. I made cookies. He's making quiche. This is why I may not be the best spokesperson for my people.
Oh yeah, and the next participatory photo post will be people in political message t-shirts. Don't post them yet. Just get ready.

Later I'll browse the web for the important stuff... the commercials.
