I guess the concept of an American male not liking hunting or sports is completely foreign to him. I say to him, "I don't like hunting", and he just stares at me blankly for a few seconds, and then asks me again when i'll go.

I really don't get these people. What's the point? Yay, a dead deer! I could've just bought a burger from McDonald's <i>and</i> avoided freezing my ass off to boot. Do these people not know why video games were invented?

i agree. i have fond memories of shooting my grandfathers compund bow at his old outhouse (no one inside at the time) but i simply dont get the appeal of hunting. now as for sports, i generally agree, but i really do enjoy a day at the ballpark watching the rockies get the shit kicked out of em.
