A group of people watched the game, while others ignored it. When Tom Petty came on, everyone gathered near the TV and the middle-aged people began to sing along. The kids couldn&#8217;t take it, so the parents dutifully shut up.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m almost as not interested in Tom Petty as I am in football. Luckily, I got involved in an intense discussion about the Presidential campaign. Three brainy women agreed that Hillary was the best candidate. She knows what she&#8217;s doing and she has proved her mettle by surviving Bill&#8217;s infidelity without sacrificing her dignity.<\/p>\n<p>But is her dignity actually intact? I have no idea! Is it dignified to stand by your husband when he deceives and humiliates you? I guess she could have thrown a fit in a press conference, or she could have called Monica out for a showdown or something. She could have&nbsp;\u00a0screwed a hunky page and told Bill, &#8220;So there, Bubba!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The women who wanted Hillary for President were so passionate about it that I was actually swayed for several hours. They had all fought to be taken seriously in their professions, whereas I personally have only fought against gainful employment. Their achievements are amazing to me.<\/p>\n<p>Just as amazing was the nine layer Jello produced by the hostess, who made it with her daughter. They noted that they sometimes make twelve layers.<\/p>\n<p>Look at how fucking beautiful this Jello is! It&#8217;s a cellphone photo, so imagine what a real camera could have captured. The glory of this Jello makes me glad to have friends who can cook, friends who have careers, and Democrats to vote for who won&#8217;t let themselves be swiftboated this time around.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I like to pride myself on my complete ignorance&nbsp;\u00a0of football, but I ended up at a Super Bowl party on Sunday.
