I don’t think it’s normal to be an adult and mad that a popular girl is dating a football player

They really are reacting like Kelce gave them a swirly last week and Swift turned them down for a date in front of the whole 5th period study hall

The level of vitriol is bizarre and disturbing

I don't think they're mad because she's popular...they're mad because she's not a right wing white supremacist like they feel she "should" be. No football stars for a race traitor, or something like that?

That’s what it feels like. They think she should be on their team.

Aside from the obvious "grow up" parts...the hot, popular girl dating the star of the football team is as Americana as it gets

... but all of a sudden, I am getting so much high school flashback.

Conservative man stops being concerned about the biological implications of a Disney movie about mermaids because he needs to turn his attention to Taylor Swift's latest boyfriend. Doesn't even have time to gloat about Margot Robbie Oscar snub. Will film a tiktok about it in his f250 wearing camo

But Amy! They say she is ruining football!

I can confirm. I watched the Chiefs Ravens game yesterday and I was unable to enjoy any of it because a pop star was on screen for a total of slightly less time than one of the dozens of commercials for online gambling.

Yes but online gambling is capitali... yeah, sure, she also is, but not THAT kind of capitalism, the other one, the one we like.

In truth I don’t care for either, but I do like football and I ALSO really love to watch grown men cry so Go Mr. Swift’s team!

Some people never leave high school. Ever.

And they’ve got the old football and varsity jacket to prove it.

oh thanks for reminding me to watch January Man again
Avatar
It was kind of a combo of “String these three things together” and a nod to that other wonderful Mary Elizabeth, Ms. Mastrantonio, the “January Man” costar and Lombard and Oak Park, Illinois homegirl. Also a crush since “Scarface”.
Avatar
She wears short skirts, they wear sneakers…. Seriously, anyone else see the weird irony here?

What’s particularly weird is that 100% of the people who are mad about it said that they were no longer going to watch football after Kaepernick took a knee.

I think it’s normal for incels and others with severely stunted emotional intelligence, though. (So, basically the entire GOP and their voters.)
Avatar
I think they are just mad that he cheerleads Her. Also, they are twits, that that doesn't help.
Avatar
That and she encouraged everyone to register to vote during her concert tour. How dare she!

Conservative incels...

I don't think adults give it much thought at all.

Have none of these asshats realized the damage that an angry Taylor Swift can bring upon the world?
Avatar
Let’s hope they haven’t 😈

She is being just so non-political and they are pissed. They're going to be so deeply fucked if she decides to *become* political.
Avatar
Yes, I hope she ramps it up as the election draws near.
Avatar
Oh, she’s political, and she’s left! This past year she got, I think, 30,000 young people registered to vote? And she’s endorsed various candidates in the past. (I’m not a diehard swifty, just a minor one, sorry I can’t be more specific.)
Avatar
She's only endorsed occasionally; what I meant by political wasn't clear, I admit -- but what I meant was, as an example, getting up on stage and introducing her choice for POTUS. Or a fundraising raffle where she'll have lunch with the winner. I expect her to do those at some point.
Avatar
My opinion of her intelligence keeps going up, and we're very nearly at the point where she will *have* to start being overtly political, I think.
Avatar
I hear you. Yeah, she doesn’t do it too often, that’s true.
Avatar
Maybe it's because she's a choir girl and he's a jock, and choir girls don't date jocks.
Avatar
I believe there is a song about it...
Avatar
Trust me, if she were a Trumpist they'd be slobbering all over themselves. "Travis Kelce SCORES!"

I don’t think it’s normal to be an adult and a football player. But being a grown-up is largely about accepting that others lead lives you’ll never fully understand.
Avatar
I mean, isn't that the point of becoming a star football player? That's what Varsity Blues taught me
Avatar
Agreed. This has been situation normal since middle school
