Because I used to like to paint bright pink nipples on little toy soldiers, I'm leaning towards Arsenal with their powerful, turgid cannon iconography. Hello prospective Arsenal supporter, Regretfully I must inform you that your application has been denied. Please make another post for a different team and be sure to check in next year if there are any spots open.

Dear prospective Arsenal supporters: Welcome to supporting Arsenal! Being an American Arsenal supporter is both cool and good, just like me, blue footed boobie. Just don't pretend to hate Spurs. You don't even know why you hate them, and it's weird and forced as hell. Instead you should follow the lead of me, blue footed boobie, and ignore the Spurs rivalry and hate Liverpool, because it is an disgusting, evil club with awful fans. Thanks, blue footed boobie.

I'm going to plastic for, like, Burton Albion or something. Then I can be smug about fake-supporting a "real" team and even smugger when some billionaire buys them in 2073 because all the teams will be owned by oil sheikhs by then

This reminds me a bit of The Meaning of Life where Death turns up to take people away and an American loudly tries to express what's going on and his feelings on the matter then Death tells him he should just shut up and go with it because for fucks sake does everything have to be analysed to death and everyone else told about it.

Dear american scum, don't watch the EPL, it's stupid and for nerds, instead you should watch the Bundesliga, which is cool and good if you completely ignore Bayern. Also most of the rad dudes who won the world cup play in the Bundesliga which means it's the best league in the world, obviously. The Bundesliga is even broadcast on cable tv in the US now, on Fox Sports! You should check out our fine thread full of cool dudes: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3651995

Velvet Elvis posted:I loving hate people who show an interest in things I enjoy. Do you not think it's a bit weird to view picking a team as so arbitrary that you should get advice on it if you are a grown person who identifies as within a genderspectrum? Like when people say 'help me pick a team' the first thing that springs to mind is that you've not watched a football match before, because if you had, you would probably have noticed things about a team you liked, or didn't like. You could fancy a team of neonazis if you liked. It seems more like people say 'I've decided I like football, and now I want to pick the second best but up and coming team so that when they win a title I can say I wasn't a plastic but I don't want to pick some oval office team who is just going to get relegated', than that they say 'Hey I love football and want to kiss it on the mouth and I'll figure out which team I like after watching football'.

Just want to echo that you shouldn't need to pick a club first in order to enjoy watching football. I know this goes against the grantland/espn articles and all the flow charts you've seen. On top of watching matches, try the following:
Hopefully you will be able to enjoy watching football without picking a team, and then you will end up finding a club to support more naturally.
