I've seen it used both ways. Affectionately and condescendingly.
What? She killed 'em with mathematics. What else could it have been?

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Hmm. I may be attributing condescension where there's just benign lack of caring about sports on their part but wanting to acknowledge that something took place.
I don't know. I read it as not caring about sports (which is fine) and announcing you don't care about sports (which is...whatever, dude, you do you) to the point that you just can't be bothered to learn/remember what sport might be happening on a given day. It's not like there are that many options, you know?
It just rubs me the wrong way, in the vein of "I don't even OWN a TV!" But I acknowledge that I'm leaning more to the cranky side on this one.

When my friends accuse the press of having a liberal bias I explain that is because they are well informed.

Having a political discussion is tough when the two sides aren't living in the same world.
Yes, this.

The fact that I yell Sportball!!!!!11!! around the office is pretty much a standing joke at this point. I know in the case of it being use with myself and my friends it's all in fun. I don't do the sport thing, the same way when I start talking about cars they say it just sounds like the Charlie Brown teacher talking.
It's also a joke now that the gang watches for the Sportball!!!11!!1 reply to sport postings from me. I know they have a great time with it and it is meant in nothing but fun.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
I would say the majority of the time it's in fun, and self-mocking a bit.

Omg, I met a dude recently who was going on and on about how disconcerted he was to have had to help carry a TV.
Because it was needed to show the first trailer of a documentary about the Lipinski Stradivarius before Frank Almond played a private concert, and oh, that brush with TV culture was just too much.
Douche.

Sheesh, I am having *serious* dizziness, like, bend over to pick up the cat plates and see spots and for real almost pass out. I'll see how I feel after eating dinner, but I might need to go to urgent care.

Hydrate, Teppy. That was the big word from my doc this week. Also, check your temp.
