Strong Link Found Between Watching Soccer, Being Incredibly Bored
From the Babylon Bee:
A new study performed by a Harvard research team found a “strong correlation” between watching a soccer game and succumbing to a feeling of overwhelming boredom.
The study suggests that watching soccer is the root cause of much of the world’s boredom, and that people can live better, more exciting lives if they simply shut off the World Cup and do something else instead. Researchers stated that other activities like watching baseball, enjoying a hockey game, and staring at the inside of a Pringles can are all far better sources of entertainment than soccer.
As the World Cup is now beginning, it is essential of all humanity to read this. For the children!
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The print edition can be purchased at Amazon. from any other book seller, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.

Bob you might want to point out Babylon Bee is humor site.
What is humorous about drunken riots..?
Sayomara: No, I don’t think so. If people can’t figure this out, both from the content and my own response, then it is there problem.
Lol, this is funny!
Soccer, the global sport of peons. they never get bored watching it , ’cause idiots never get bored..
Soccer, which educated people call football, is the sport of compromise and cooperation between diverse peoples. Not playing soccer causes conservatives to think all problems can be solved by invading Iraq.
FC: Heh.
Not a big fan of American football or real football, but find the former totally unwatchable because there’s only about 10 seconds of play followed by a couple of minutes of adverts – then repeat.
Soccer is entertaining but it requires watching the whole game. You can’t be in and out doing other things. If you haven’t been paying attention the whole time, it really is boring.
Every soccer game can/should be compressed to just 20 or so seconds of shots on goal. That the game.
The remaining 59 minutes and 40 or so seconds are boring.
Right now, I will take boring soccer over NFL. CFL has not gone the political way of the NFL : yet.
Darts and archery are more fun; heck, even golf!
Communist football.
Soccer is mindless running around. Which is why little girls play it.
