Sometimes I get heated when I'm watching an ol' sports game. Gibbis, in your experience is it acceptable to yell at your TV? Just trying to figure out if I should even try to better myself.

I hardly ever yell at the sports, but when it comes to watching sports I'm a savvy veteran who knows all the rules and plays the right way.

It entirely depends on context.

If you yell something like "gently caress!" or "OH poo poo!" or "What a pass!" this is entirely acceptable.

However, if you are one of those dumbasses who yells instructions at the tv like it can hear you, you can go to hell.
"HE'S OPEN! HE'S OPEN! OH MY GOD YOU'RE BLIND!" is what retards say to an electronic box.

got it?

Yell at your girlfriend instead.
It's her fault the QB got strip-sacked.
If you went ahead and married your girlfriend, throw a knife at her.
How could she call a pass on third and 1?

I adhere to this usually, glad to be reassured.


I will take pet throwing into consideration. Have a German Shepard, though, so not sure how well that'll work out.

Reminder that Boston produced busing degregation in the 1970s and early 1980s, leading to The Soiling of Old Glory, so that should not be shocking in the least.
