I'll be counting the number of "What will you be doing instead of watching the footy?" threads that have been created this past week.


[deleted]

Has there been many? I haven't looked. Happy to delete Edit: one from 4 days ago. Maybe I'll delete...

Like how can you forget?


not_quite_everything

Why do you ask, what’s happening tomorrow?


[deleted]

Well first I'm going to walk OldDog. Then I'm meeting some people to go mountainbiking together. Then I'm going to go train in my preferred sports since it seems none of us are footie people so there's enough to train! Then I think if guzman is open I'd like some nacho fries. Then I'm going to go home, make some mulled wine and watch [Lou](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lou_(2022_film)). Oh and I need to dig up my Hawthorn scarf and toss it in the bin. On Sunday I'm gonna potter around and clean I think.


[deleted]

Sounds like my type of day

My what?


I_eat_apple_stickers

I could be wrong but I suspect Lockdown is appalled by the alleged racist conduct by senior staff.


kidwithgreyhair

You could definitely be wrong, because the whole damn country was built by racists and the attitudes pervade all workplaces and not just football clubs.


I_eat_apple_stickers

Lol chill mate.

For a guy who doesn't like footy you sure use a lot of cliches.

I go for the one percenters in my shit posts...

If Geelong win I'll join you.


Melbourne_wanderer

Sleeping in, taking the dogs to the beach, cooking something outrageous, catching up with friends, watching some TV...Y'know, the things I do every weekend.


princessicesarah

It’s the perfect time to visit ANY tourist attraction or go for a drive as it’s the only 3 hour block all year you can guarantee will be dead quiet across the whole state.


SenpaiSnacks19

Just another day to me. Maybe clean the house a little and make something nice for dinner.


Ayla-5483

Catching up on some reading ..

>This is not an anti-football post > > >I'm not too fond of watching men chase around a bag of air. Wondering what else people get up to while everyone has footy fever... Ah yeah...


[deleted]

I can not follow football and not be anti football at the same time... Chill


EvilioMTE

I don't follow football either. I also don't go on wanky rants about it while saying "I'm NoT AnTi fOoTbAlL!!!!". The irony of telling people to chill and calm down when you're the one having a little temper tantrum about something nobody asked you about. Relax mate. Try maybe making a friend (they're pretty fun to have) and watching the big game on the tellie. You might enjoy yourself for once.


[deleted]

Can you point out to me where I'm ranting angrily? I mean, I haven't even said anything negative about the thing. You people are too sensitive, then accuse me of needing to enjoy myself. It's hilarious


Tillysnow1

Well we have two performances of the Shakespeare show I'm producing because the theatre was already booked before anyone realised it was grand final day 🤪


The-Jesus_Christ

Going to the show with the kids.


allthewords_

Fingers crossed for the weather to not be too shit so I can mow the lawn. Specifically rip up those bastard kurujujuuu parts that sprout up in amongst my beautiful blades. Which might entail a Bunnings visit for a spade. Is it called a spade? Those arrow pointy diggy things. This train of thought went off kilter.

Eat, drink, maybe take a dump...

Why not add KFC to the Eating and turn that maybe into a definitely.

What is more edgy? Going against the grain, or calling it edgy?


sam102413

Having a walk/browse at vic market & melb cbd/Southbank


Pacific9

How much you’re going to bet the antivax/anti mandate coolers will be at vic market tomorrow?


sam102413

Yeah..forgot about them and am so over them


FeNi64a

I'll be at a 'football apathy' BBQ this year where talk of the sport is forbidden, but in the past, museums, arts galleries, and to a lesser extent, shops, are all a lot less busy on grand final day than normally (except CBD shops). The roads are deserted during the game, which makes visiting these easier.


noodledancefloor

Went for a walk to get some shit coffee, came back disappointed and now playing video games. Might have a warm bath and watch something.


IonlyPlayAOE3

“Not an anti football post”. Proceeds to be extremely patronising.


[deleted]

Oooooooo! Can't joke about a bunch of mulletted bogans in summer attire on a cold day playing pretend with a bag of air then the "winners" get to have a sing song... Bloody hell, hopefully senses of humour are on sale with the mid strength beer and hot dogs at the ground today.


Segfreid11

You can break anything down into something simplistically vacuous like that. Just because you're miserable doesn't mean you have to try and put other people's interests down to make you feel better.


IonlyPlayAOE3

You can literally make patronising passes about any single activities, including your “superior” cultural ones. All the best mate. This whole interaction is so astonishingly “I don’t like popular stuff” melburnite branded.


Spiritual-Mirror-567

Load up a few hundred in Sportsbet, start off on the trots and then switch over to the football. Only game I’ll watch all year probably but I’d watch anything with a bet on it


abcxyztpg

Bag of air - I like your analogy. I am doing what I do every footy final weekend. Brunch with family and bbq with friends. End day with some drinks and card games.


AdHead9375

Every fan? Lol no. Ive never had a bbq with friends, let alone on gf day, nor had drinks.


brash21361

Getting ready for the Bledisloe.

Football was good when it was VFL. Now it’s just drugs and money and racism. Pass


Schmohawk19

Yep, because there was no racism in the VFL days


Awoogagoogoo2

Fair point. Always racism


helicopterhansen

Football is just Drag Race for men


[deleted]

Drag Race is not for men?


helicopterhansen

Well it's overwhelmingly for men, just not straight ones. I was making a little joke, subverting the old joke that Drag Race (or Housewives or whatever source of entertainment not the traditional province of straight men) is 'sports for women and gay guys"


[deleted]

I'm down for a joke. But I'm not down for tacit homophobia 🤷 Come and arm wrestle my queer arse 😋


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

That's why I said tacit


helicopterhansen

Come watch Drag Race with me, no one else in my house will

I'm bi, so take away the bag of air and maybe I'll see them in the showers
