I wish I could hire you to narrate my life, tp.

It'd make it so much more interesting.

Was casually watching the opening ceremonies...was totally flabbergasted by all the great looking girls!


Is it just me? Are they really that hot? Or am I getting old and any young thing is looking especially juicy?

Does anyone actually give a **** though? Honestly, is a single person here really into the Olympics? I feel like all the hype and national pride that was a thing through the '80s and '90s is long dead and gone and no one really cares anymore. It's just a thing that happens every 4 years now that is mildly distracting.

Apathy is a common attitude these days, it has to do with desensitization resultant of the extra-natural stimulus of one's reward circuitry..

Given what we know about N-turtle's lifestyle choices,  it seems inevitable..  hahahaha


Keep in mind, I'm not saying it's a bad thing, I am merely saying, be mindful of WHY you feel that way, as the body and all subsequent emotions are built upon a Mechanical system.

I am old, too, and not watching the Games, but I have always thought that fit athletic women were more attractive than stupid-looking slut-bunnies who are all lips and tits and staggering around in high heels.

"Starting in 2011, the deficits again started to shrink. During Obama’s term  the deficit was reduced by $900 Billion  before finally in 2015 the GOP managed to wrangle a “reconciliation” bill out of Obama where he again cut corporate taxes, as well as made permanent some of George W. Bush’s original tax cuts. This is the year everything reversed. Before this, under Clinton, Bush and Obama the deficit in almost every year was gradually decreasing. The balance we had of taxes and the economy was bringing the deficit down, the money coming in was slowly catching up with the money going out until 2015. Trump’s subsequent tax cut has continued the new trend even after the rest of Bush’s cuts have since expired. Obama had an average GDP of 2.3%, with 11.6 million jobs created and unemployment peaking at 10% in 2009, then falling to 4.3% in 2016. If we had continued on that downward deficit track, we would have again reached balance and another surplus in 2017-2018.

This is an occupational specialization..  Not different from professional sports..

These girls provide different services and functions in society..

One should not demean another simply because of their career disposition..

It's not that at all. I feel like the patriotism and commendatory the Olympics used to stand for is gone now. You used to hear every home going down the block watching the Olympics in the evening, cheering like it was the Super Bowl. People would gather in bars and wear Olympic shirts. It was an event. Now everyone seems jaded and disinterested, as if the recent insurance in post-nationalism has turned us into a nation of bitter uncaring grumps.

All of that may very well be the case,  but I'm not disputing what has happened.

I'm trying to convey why this is happening..


The brain has but One Main Ruler for motivation..


It deliberates everything through this pipeline..


After a strong memory is form resultant of a certain-positive-event,  the entire system weighs ALL other Future TO-DOs  against that knowledge it has acquired.


So, if your life is already filled with Video Games, Pretty Internet Girls, Cheap Liquor, Recreational Adulterants..


Then, something such as a Sports event could certainly seem Mundane..    Because the Electro-Chemical Programming in your brain says..  I can be Happier doing OTHER things..

I'm trying to talk about a broad issue here and you always make it personal, I dunno why you do that. Is it like a defense mechanism, or some odd way to try and relate to me on a human level?

mm... the personal touch i suppose is what I know of the person i am talking to.

But there is the broader application of my explanation which would cover your observation of apathy.

Yeah, they hit the wall and disintegrate. Women who care about fitness break through the wall, as they have a solid core and aren't just glued together plastic bits.

I feel like all the hype and national pride that was a thing through the '80s and '90s is long dead and gone and no one really cares anymore. It's just a thing that happens every 4 years now that is mildly distracting.

There are definitely some events I'm really into. I always watch the footy games, mens and womens. I love the sport and watch it every chance I get, and the international game is always a treat. Same goes for basketball. Love the **** out of the sport and watch it frequently at every level.

My aunt got me into watching gymnastics as a kid, and I still really enjoy it. It's absolutely insane the amount of body control and physical power those people have. Truly awesome.

Most of the other stuff I watch casually, but I still find myself getting really into things I wouldn't expect. I guess I just enjoy watching competitions of all kinds, really. Especially when things are close I end up getting pretty hyped out of nowhere. Field Hockey is another one that is really fun to watch. And Handball... lol a lot of things, honestly.

But I agree with you in the general sense. I think if you're someone who loves sports, you're likely to be into it. I feel like when I was younger even the families who would never turn on a baseball game were hugely into anything USA had a chance at winning, but that level of enthusiasm isn't nearly as common anymore.
