With a face like that, how could I not?

You are coming off as very gay.
I guess you would know. I don't see how you being ass ugly has anything to do with me, but...

Amazing. You start a top level smack thread and you run out of gas about 10 posts into it.

Issue your tapout below.
LOL, this coming from a guy that had to resort to the "gay card" on his third post.

Nice try, junior.

Face it, you played the gay card on yourself with repeated postings about my ass

I win. Your obsession lives on.

Care to wager on the game this Saturday?
How many points are you spotting?

It's UM-MSU - Straight up, the way it oughta be.

Or do you have a problem with the "straight" part of that?

No, I just thought that with a Sweet 16 team like the Griz I'd at least get 10 points or so against my lowly 'Cats. I know Swilly will take that action!

Can't afford your hourly rate? Is that supposed to be an insult? I'd pay your hourly rate and make you wash my car with it, clowny. Don't act like you know me.

Let's not frame this in terms of "right" and "wrong." Let's frame it this way: your dictionary also says that "ain't" is an acceptable substitute for "is not." However, those of us who are among the segment of society that received a proper education still cringe when we hear the word "ain't."

And the idea that you think you could ever "make" me wash your car (or do anything else) is truly hilarious. Get over yourself..."clowny."

And don't worry; I have no intention of billing you for any of this. I doubt you could afford my hourly rate anyway.

GL, I think it is kind of funny that you suggest that we use "per se" in the Latin text (a language that is dead) instead of by the English definition. That is a little ridicules don't you think- unless of course Bobcat Nation became a Latin website dedicate to Bobcat Athletics! Meditor -ari.

Well, the phrase is a Latin phrase, so I guess to me it makes sense to use the Latin definition (despite the fact that Americans have bastardized the original meaning of the phrase). If Americans adopted the word "gracias" into the English language but a segment of society started using it to mean "you're welcome" instead of "thank you," I would still defer to the original Spanish definition of that one, too.

That said, I was only being a smart ass when I posted my initial response. It was supposed to be a gentle jab, and I fully expected Gavin's response to be "Thanks GL, and feel free to go f- yourself." I never intended to start an actual discussion of this topic (nor did I intend for it to turn as personal as it did).

I don't know if this fits the topic, per se

, but I have my UM alum story of the week.

My sister and brother in law (both finishing up school at MSU) are in town this week, and we hit the Warriors game on Thursday night. We're waiting for the girls to get out of the bathroom, and happen to be near a booth advertising free tickets for various things. We notice that one of the guys manning the booth has "Montana" on his name tag (as everyone at the booth has their original home on their name tags).

So we do the nice guy thing and start chatting up the guy ... big mistake. Turns out he and another UM alum at the booth work for a (gasp!) time share company. Five minutes later, we are finally able to limp away from the booth having narrowly avoided commiting to making an appointment to stop in and "listen to a short presentation they were giving" the next day.

Yep, the UM alums heard that we were MSU alums/students, and all they could see were great big dollar signs (because everyone knows that, like, all MSU alums get great jobs ... not that we're particularly gullible and would buy into time shares).

Okay, maybe they treat everyone that way, but it's my story, so I'll tell it how I want.

It looks like I anticipated the comeback perfectly ... glad I got that pre-emptive language in there.

As long as we're sharing funny stories, I've got a hum-dinger about MSU: They had this football team, you see, and that football team hasn't won a playoff game for 20 years!

Is that a hilarious story or what?

I'll expect my payment much faster than what you did with lifesloyal. You might as well send it now to get it out of the way. I take cash or check.
