I mean there are way less interesting things to make your whole personality.
Go Bills!
Oh god. This caught me completely off guard and I just laughed so much. Grew up in western NY, understand perfectly!
lol yeah I’m sure I could replace it with a bunch of teams, but growing up in New England I’ve never found more of a “my personality is my football team” than bills fans
It wasn’t this bad back when I was growing up in the 80’s-90’s. We were definitely fans, though the Superbowl years gave a lot of us football PTSD. I always enjoyed the Bills because so many of the players then were very small town types. It was normal to see even the big name players like Jim Kelly playing pool in one of the small, rural communities outside the city. (Sabers, too!). I moved away in 2004, so I don’t know how much of that community feeling is still there, but something definitely changed. Fans are kind of embarrassing now.
Funny aside:. When Jim Kelly retired as quarterback, he and some others went to play pool at a place in one of those little towns. A friend of mine found out they were there and phoned me up all excited because she was going to go and try to recruit him for her Amway downline, “because now that he’s retired, hell need a new source of income!”. She wanted me to go with her. Haha hellll no girl, you go shill your MLM by yourself! The second-hand embarrassment was awful.
Got my wife a hat with a buffalo it that is not a Bills hat, not even close if you bother to actually look at it.
When we were in NY last summer she was constantly being asked about football, so much she still hesitates to wear it out now, 2+ states away.
Next time get her a hat featuring a bunch of unpaid invoices
a hat with a buffalo it that is not a Bills hat, not even close if you bother to actually look at it.
Hers is lighter pink too.
That’s pretty damn close imo lol
They went, alright
There are, but how many people use something worse as an excuse?

I travelled a lot but have shit memory so I can’t recount much
That’s why I take pictures.
And write a recap as youre going or right after you get back. You’ll recall it all reading it years later better.
I keep getting told that no one will want to see my travel photos. Maybe it’s because I’d rather show them in person instead of posting on social media?
I just take them so I can remember personally.
Literally me, if it was up to my memory it would seem like I’ve never left my hometown
ah, a prime candidate for !dull_mens_club@lemmy.world
No matter where you live, there are guaranteed to be non mundane things going on. You just dont see or interact with them.
Live in the midwest, can’t confirm.
Start using Arch!
There are lots of people who travel but still only have mundane things to say because all they did was eat food and not venture outside of the TripAdvisor Top 10 Things To Do in X City
The mundane things make us who we are. Travel is not something most people can do.
No matter where you go, there you are.
My problem is a different opposite. I grew up abroad but haven’t really traveled since. It wasn’t my choice and it’s got fuckall to do with anything, so I loathe talking about it.
And every time I meet someone it’s like “Hey, where’re you coming from? There’s something in your accent I can’t place.”
Off road cycling, kayaking, open water swimming? Surely these are not overly mundane things and can be done locally.
