What’s not fun is being told I’m supposed to laugh when the goddamn Winnipeg Jets fans force me to sympathize with Corey Perry.

You’ve taken that away from me, Jets fans. You’ve taken away my ability to fully hate Corey Perry.

And then – and then, just when I’d gotten to feel the righteous joy of someone who’s watched a fanbase I had good reason to dislike feel the pain of a sweep, just when I was able to put my annoyance aside and return to what I do best – voodoo dolls and hating St. Louis – Gary Bettman opens his stupid mouth.

What isn’t fun is being told by some dude that you just need to learn how to take a joke or whatever, and then having that be validated by the goddamn commissioner of the NHL. Not when you’ve spent a significant amount of time and money following your team over long distances because you’re just as much of a fan as the bros who think it’s hi-####ing-larious to insult a dude by calling him a lady.

It’s also not fun to hear the commissioner of the league tell you that, if it is an insult, it’s basically the same as when a goalie gets called a sieve.

A sieve. An inanimate object, devoid of feeling, found in kitchens across America, often used in the preparation of delicious jams and jellies or in draining pasta. Apparently in Bettman’s eyes, I – as a woman – am also an inanimate object, devoid of feeling, found in a kitchen. It’s all the same thing, right, Gary? I’ll just go make you a sandwich, shall I?
