It's not a bad thing. We all have our strengths and weaknesses. This doesn't mean you are, as the kids would say, "basic." It just means that in this one instance, you fall into the stereotype that is usually reserved for girls; You know nothing about football. But regardless of whether you are a guy or a girl, you can fall under this category. How to know you are faking it at the Superbowl party you are at? Whenever the Super Bowl comes around, whether you're a guy or a girl, you are probably thinking along the lines of who, what, when, where and why.
1. I didn't know who's playing until thirty minutes ago.
"Oh, okay, cool."
2. I'm not going to lie to you, I didn't know it was today until yesterday.
In retrospect, I had heard some talk about such an event and it is always this time of year so I am slightly embarrassed about this. But can you name all of the Kardashian/Jenners in age order? Strengths and weaknesses, people.
3. Again, for the sake of honesty, I am here for the food.
Yeah, I eat like I am celebrating all the time but there is something that is more fun about it when it's with other people instead of alone in your room.
4. Actually, about fifty percent of me is here for the food, then it's the commercials.
In short, I am here for Betty White and the talking babies.
5. Then the rest of me needs to see what goes down with Lady Gaga as the halftime performer.
You know something has to go down.
6. I also have FOMO so I, for this one time, will like what everyone else likes.
7. When I nod and say "I know, right?" that is me faking it until I make it when anyone talks about the Super Bowl.
Variations may include, "For real?" "Seriously?" or the classic, "Yeah."
