Chuck Klosterman's 23 Questions #16 Canadian Football

[ScottieK]

No, because it doesn't interest me now. If it interests me twenty years from now, I'll probably have the game on tape in the future and can watch it as many times as I want.

Besides, it's preseason. Everyone knows Canadian football doesn't get interesting until October.

No, I wouldn't watch. From what the optical portal has told me, I'm guaranteed to be alive, happy, and reasonably well-off financially in 20 years. I think there would be better things to do with my 20 years of immortality than watching Canadian football. I can do that when I've gone crazy as a loon in 20 years.

[Autocratic]

The crystal ball can't be right if I kill myself. Which I'd immediately do.

Dids, I know I might be a bit of a hater, but can you honestly tell me you don't find the 23 Questions (both the concept and the questions themselves thus far) really gay?

it wouldn't bother me so much if he didn't market them as "questions he asks a person before he can tell if he really loves them." come on.. the guy would have no friends if that were the case. I mean, look at the nga (above).

Euro,

You are totally being a hater here, and making the same mistake many people stupider than you have made. Clearly he's kidding, and the absuridty of the statement is part of the punchline to the joke.

You are smarter than this post and I am displeased with you. DISPLEASED.

Dids, there's such a thing as a tedious joke.

[Hopey]

Yes, but I'm Canadian so I'd be watching the game anyway.

[tpir]

First, I would be really mad at myself for not having a Canadian Football Sports Almanac sitting on my lap that I could look through for 30 seconds.

Second, it's only a preseason game so I would probably skip it since I will have plenty of time to watch this stuff later.

Dids, I don't think my opinion of the questions changes even though he is "kidding." this just means he thought, "haha it'll be funny if I say that I ask people these questions to determine their worth as a human being."

that's still gay.

the questions are just annoying in the way that some of Bill Simmons's material is. it's just easier to like Simmons because he doesn't resemble a pretentious hipster fgt.

The next day, you are flipping through television channels and randomly come across a prseason CFL game between the Toronto Argonauts and the Sasakatchewan Roughriders. Knowing your inveitable future, do you know watch it?

No. I don't speak Canadian.
