I’m not watching

Apparently there was some kind of…football game going on tonight?

Gone are the days when I’d even pretend to care — I mean, good for the Giants, the underdog, and everything, I guess, but seriously, I don’t care. I didn’t watch a minute of the game, and I had even less interest in watching the advertisements. I know the news media spent a week pounding into our heads how they’re the real reason everybody tunes in nowadays, how a record number of billions have been spent on advertising — mostly by companies that have really deep pockets already, but sure, okay — and how we just couldn’t wait to see what those kooky nuts in marketing had dreamed up for us this year.

But really, honestly, I don’t care.
