    No, I'm the sane one who doesn't give a crap about stupid nonsense. Here's another: I got filthy looks all day long at my MILs 80th birthday party years ago because I didn't attend a Baby Shower three states away a month before. Get the hell out of here. If you were that insulted that I don't care about such nonsense, then don't cash my check, send the gift back to me at my expense, or donate it to charity and shut up.

    EDIT & P.S.: Baby Showers in general are a horrid and stupid idea. If something should go wrong, you have to deal with an empty nursery and gifts that were meaningless in the first place. Healthy baby first, party after.

    Haven’t watched a minute of the Cup.

    How did Chechnya do?

    Don't lie. We know you like soccer during World Cup. I educated you extensively on offside 4 years ago. Come on now.

    Wailing banshees are nicer than French people

    Ha, the funny thing is, they don't even like each other.

    EDIT for clarification: I didn't mean that wailing banshees and the French don't like each other. I meant even the French don't like the French.

    Sure, but remember, half of the Belgians are actually French (the Walloons), so it's more complicated than it seems.

    Anyway, go Red Devils!

    Loving the pace of this game so far. France and Belgium are 2 juggernauts!

    As much as I was hoping Belgium would win, France definitely looked like the better team.

    England vs France, please make it happen. That is a great final.

    Boo! I was hoping for a Belgium/Croatia final. I don't want either France or England to win.

    As a Jets, Mets, and Islanders fan it does not surprise me at all that I was rooting for Belgium - England and it has turned out to be France - Croatia!

    I predicted France-England, but mid-way through this game I started cheering for Croatia. They were the better team. They have a legitimate chance to beat France, but I still give France the edge.

    Watched my first 80 minutes of the World Cup at a rooftop bar in mid-town.

    Great wine.

    Boring game.

    Man, I could feel the tension after Croatia scored. They just looked the more dangerous team overall. I feel like France and Belgium were on another level though.

    Now that Brits can shut the hell up about how "it's coming home".
