Superbowl? Really?!??

Nothing About This Makes Any Sense to Me

By Lightning Bolt ⚡Published 12 months ago Updated 9 months ago 1 min read
Obviously that's a DOME, not a BOWL.

I hear rumors.

I'm not exactly ill-informed.

Tonight there is something called a "Superbowl."

I know that to be true.

Exactly what it is, however-- what is does-- that's confusing me. 🤷⚡

Apparently, there are no bowls being used.

No soup bowls, no tureens,

No salad bowls or cereal bowls or pasta bowls.

Not even any mixing bowls!

I thought maybe this superbowl was for pets.

But no!

I can't find any cat or dog bowls associated with it.

But even if there are bowls being used,

Here's what bothers me even more...

There are apparently NO SUPERPOWERS that will be on display tonight!

How can they claim to provide a super-something when there are no superpowers involved?????

This makes no sense.

It seems like false advertising to me!!!!

I'm just saying.

Thank God I prefer to stream music to my TV anyway, instead of digging through thousands of channels looking for something silly that the rest of America seems interested in.

Superheroes (like me) get no respect.

Can someone please explain to me what's so super about this Sunday?

PS-- Am I crazy to think that if the trillions of people out there who watch this inexplicable thing would just come to Vocal and read our crap instead, we'd all be seriously rich?
