Good morning all, the boy; pardon me, Thomas says I have to lay off the anger so hateful towards the human race. I quote Tom now “we aren’t all that bad, in fact most are quite pleasant, they’ve just been lead down the beautiful garden path to the pasture with the rest of the sheep and ‘sheeple’.”
Pleasant, ha, I’m yet to see evidence of that, but yes sheeple you most certainly are, and based on this next story I rest my case.
The boy is making me apologize in advance, as based on the title of this one; he fears it will end in a rant, Alex Jones Style. So today Thomas was fortunate enough, so he thought, to take the lovely Cameron’s (that’s the boy he’s staying with) mother’s season football tickets for a joy ride.
Now football here isn’t soccer and it’s by no means American football. It’s kind of like rugby's ugly sister, it’s a bunch of men kicking and punching an oblong ball to their teammates on an oval field that looks like it was stolen from the track club. The scoring is the same, six points for a goal and one for kicking it through the side posts. That’s really the gist of it, all you need to know for the story, the rest you can research on your own.
So as I was saying, it wasn’t much for a joy ride for our young hero, (how vain, he liked that one) Thomas even left the game with a ripping head ache and had to take transit all the way home.
So Thomas walked to the train station, fifteen minutes from the house. On the way we were harassed for change by two able bodied young men sitting outside Safeway, who from what I could see (Teacozy’s not having very good vision, I relied on the boy for confirmation) looked less homeless and more like they had just finished a hard night of drinking and now were strapped for “change” as they so requested. The boy was polite, pardon; Thomas, saying only his train fair, which was a lie, so I yelled at them to suck my dick. I can only imagine they wondered how much they could get for something like that and if it would taste like tea.
So the train was packed by the last couple stops previous to the stadium and the grounds where filled with jersey’s and scarfs sporting the home teams black with red stripe (why jerseys outside North America haven’t evolved beyond a basic pattern indiscernible from their opponents is above my understanding, they stick to their roots like the chinese and chopsticks). The Boy (he’s given up at this point with the whole name thing) weaved us through the craze to a quiet side entrance where we strolled in. A lady sitting near us even missed the first quarter waiting outside in line to buy an extra seat.
So after waiting some time, as taking transit always causes you to be way earlier or much too late, the game began. The home team came out strong and by the end of the first quarter the Essendon Bombers (yes just like Winnipeg, and it turns out the fans are quite similar as well) led their opponents, a new team, the gold coast suns 97-1.
Now as the game rolled on you would suspect that the fans would relax back into their seats and the Bombers would sit back, work on some defense and ride the lead to victory. Well that’s exactly what the team did, however unfortunate for them, as well Thomas and I for that matter, the fans wanted murder, and they wanted the Gold Coast’s Blood to flood the field (similar to that which they experienced last summer). These reactions came in the way of booing, screaming, yelling obscenities and general nonsense that for the most part would have the coaches shaking their heads in shame.
Needless to say this continues to such a point of severity that other fans began to look in disgust. What really pisses a Teacozy off is how people could get like this at a meaningless fucking sporting event, but when their government lies, cheats and steals their basic liberties, murder helpless beings just trying to live, with the help of corporate backed filth money based through a valueless monetary system controlling their freedom you all became a bunch of hopeless pacifist pussies, including dingle berry Tom here.
Yet I understand, it’s so you can justify your fat, ugly consuming lives by working a job you can’t stand. Wait, what!!! No I don’t get it.
Teacozy out.
