@Kyeh@lonocat The puppers are often already adopted by the time they get to the Puppy Bowl, as was the case for Mr. Purdy. They represent the shelters they came from and all the other animals still waiting for a forever home.
@ironcheftoni I was wearing KC gear to rep the family team in CA, with a Mardi Gras jacket and Valentine’s Day socks to boot. Had all my bases covered!
Everyone knows the Super Bowl is about the best drinks and snacks, watching all the commercials and the half-time show, discussing Las Vegas, T. Swift, and Usher. The two teams will occasionally play football so everyone has time to take bathroom breaks, reload snacks, discuss the commercials, and argue which TVs are the best for watching sports.
And yes, I remember several decades ago when the SB was about football. Now pick up your fancy snacks and and get off my lawn.
@rockblossom@sammydog01 I’ve long disliked Taylor Swift… But now the QAnon crowd think she’s some sort of deep state super agent for the Democrats, I must admit I find I dislike her a little less. It’s hard to keep disliking a deep state super agent.
@OnionSoup@shahnm I’m sure that something about onion soup would have been much more interesting. I might even have watched. Particularly if Andrew Rea was making it.
@OnionSoup@shahnm@werehatrack Is it legal to put three pounds of Spanish onions in a French onion soup?
Is there no culture police to reign these things in?
(I also felt like he was cutting across the “grain” of the onions, rather than “with” the grain. But it’s not the maximum cross-grain that it could be. Specifying a direction in 3D can be hard. The “pole-to-pole” almost worked, but that makes me think of cutting to the center of the onion, making wedges.)
I can’t believe I watched the super bowl and didn’t have to see Peyton Manning even one time (was he aired while i was on a bathroom break?) He’s become more over-exposed than even the Kardasians.
@phendrick I had to Google to see who Peyton Manning is. Meh, just another rich has-been that got overpaid for his performances in an entertainment field.
@werehatrack
He was NFL Pro Football’s MVP 5 times and first team All-Pro 7 times. He’s now supplementing his meager professional football savings (and possibly some from college football) by doing commercials for several products, hosting game shows, and offering opinions on sports analysis programs.
He’s still probably overpaid.
There were also several law suits settled financially over sexual assault claims by a female trainer at his college.
And he appears to have no small ego, which gets displayed way too much, IMHO.

I am cheering for the delicious Souper Bowl.
Time to turn on the Puppy Bowl!
@Kyeh and the winner is
Team Ruff received the Lombarky trophy, and
Moosh was named MVP (most valuable pup)
@lonocat The kitty halftime show is pretty cute too!
@Kyeh @lonocat Oooooooh I live in the greater Sacramento region. I need Bark Purdy in my life!
@die13lda @lonocat
Oh, that would be cool if you adopted him! Let us know! He’s incredibly adorable.

@die13lda @lonocat I kind of suspected that. Are you going to try to find a similar pup?
This is the better meme
@ironcheftoni Laissez les bons temps rouler!

@rockblossom I have nothing personally against Swift but if I never hear her name again it will be too soon. Maybe I’ll watch a movie instead.

I heard there was a sports thing yesterday, what was it about?
@werehatrack Soup. Or owls. Owl Soup maybe?
@shahnm @werehatrack
Soupy bowels?
@werehatrack I think it was a championship bowling tournament held in Las Vegas.
@shahnm @werehatrack onion soup?
@OnionSoup @shahnm I’m sure that something about onion soup would have been much more interesting. I might even have watched. Particularly if Andrew Rea was making it.
Oh, wait, I did…

@tinamarie1974
I guess this giphy got it right!
@Kyeh @tinamarie1974 I wonder if she makes her only clothes, quickly? Or is that a swift tailor?

@phendrick
No, he wears a lot more clothes than they do, so they still win for over-exposure.
@Kyeh @phendrick You’ve seen one Kardashian, you’ve seen too many.
@phendrick I had to Google to see who Peyton Manning is. Meh, just another rich has-been that got overpaid for his performances in an entertainment field.
@phendrick He was in at least one of the commercials - I think maybe Bud Light? - so must have been on during your break. Good job missing him

@phendrick In short, not just overpaid, but an overpaid asshole. Gotcha.
