Today I learned that people are silly

Many folks - parents and kids who were watching the Superbowl on TV as a family event - are upset with NBC and the NFL because during half-time, some "Singer" "named" MIA said "I don't give a shit" - as part of whatever song she was singing, apparently - but then gave the entire viewing audience the finger. A vulgar gesture, certainly...but nothing that five year olds in certain parts of towns probably don't see every day of the week. I was much more offended by the commercials that permeated the entire Super Bowl - as I am every year. As I am every day, actually. The vulgarity of giving someone the finger is one thing, but what about these commercials glorifying sex? Not romantic sex. Not sex as a gesture of love and intimacy between two people. Just pure "You're a woman so do some prancing and simpering for me because that's all you're on this planet for" sex. I think young boys would be more harmed by that - in the sense that that is the way they will start treating girls and women now if they don't already do so - then by some moron making a vulgar gesture.
