are soccer fans the biggest NPCs? I've got to know quite a few personally and they are really similar to another. Usually working a dead end wage slave job, obnoxious, hooked to alcohol and cigs (sometimes other drugs), bad goyslop diet, share the same opinions, not interested in anything even remotely that has to do with science or tech. Maybe there's a scientific explanation for this?

Soccer is the most boring shit I have ever seen. I don't get how Europoeans can get so worked up over some fags kicking a ball around.

Rugby is too violent. Schools endanger kids by forcing them to play it when a bully might step on you or hit you with a hockey stick

The padding and helmets are supposedly to stop them breaking given the huge forces involved but in itself it creates a warped sense of invulnerability where they use the the padding as offensive armour

I'm not familiar with this variant.

It's called 'fags - play this game -put a hockey stick in this variant to prove my point further'

OP here.. you spooked me there. The following points are correct
- organic chem
- transition metals
- signs fidgeting with fingers
- not having a license
- sensitive hearing
- staring
you don't happen to be some stalker that knows me irl? (in case you are I hope you are a qt fed girl). But back on topic, your reply doesn't refute my NPC statement. Only makes me appear awkward.

Why does watching and following football (as opposed to playing it) appeal to what might be called the npc?
Is it because it appeals to a sort of pseudo low effort basal emotional tribalism?

I can totally relate. Living in a European city with a very big and popular soccer club I have to deal with soccer NPCs regularly. They are docile dumb sheeple who reject any form of intellectualism. The ideal obedient citizen for a tyrannical government.
>>16142437
Probably the same appeal as loud music, alcohol, dancing or similar NPC crap. It's primitive conformist group "entertainment" where merely being present is already considered socializing. The NPC has no intellectual depth and even more importantly no emotional depth. He can only socialize in the most shallow ways. He cannot engage in deep or difficult conversations one on one. His idea of socializing stops already at standing somewhere in a group with a beer in his hand. And those are ironically the people who consider an intellectually and emotionally advanced man to be "socially inept".

I can understand it if it's at the local club level where the guy playing is your cousin or the bloke down the street and you stand around the pitch screaming "whack it ya nob" since there's quite a lot of attachment and involvement.
But where it has just become a form of interchangeable consumerist entertainment for drunk fucks in over priced shirts It doesn't have the same kick.

Exactly my thoughts. What does it even mean to be a fan of e.g. Bayern Munich when none of the players is originally from Munich and all of the players will be replaced within the next years by other random internationals who have no relation to the city either? I have no problem with soccer as a sport. As a kid I enjoyed playing it. But the fandom seems quintessentially cringe to me.

Well, not having read this thread, soccer fans generally are useless.
But, they make money and spend it too.
Personally, I have nothing to do with any of that.
Enjoy!

Any top university has chemistry and physics students who enjoy getting drunk with friends and engaging in idle conversation. Competent science undergraduates can refrain from fixating on their textbook exercises every conversation because they are not hopelessly insecure.
Even the humanities and philology students are talking about last night's NBA game or whatever happens to be on ESPN, not the reception of the poetry of Callimachus in the oratory of Cicero.

I can talk about a wide variety of topics, e.g. STEM, history, philosophy, literature, economics, and my favorite: /pol/itics. But having to listen to my coworkers speculating who will win the Champions League is boring af. There is no informational and no emotional content to this kind of conversation. It's no better than other forced smalltalk like talking about the weather. Just some noise NPCs use to avoid awkward silence.
