We in MN falsely assumed the MI crowd could deduce what we were talking about.Originally Posted by FadeToBlack&Gold
No need to apologize. Those of us in Rochester, MI know we're much smarter than the MN crowd (despite the Mayo).

Edit: Rochester MN was known as a place to retire, not a place for young people. That has changed, somewhat.

Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

Bret Stephens is still doing his thing
Today's NYT: someone called Bret Stephens a bedbug so he googled "Jews as bedbugs" to reverse-engineer a column calling his critics Nazis, forgot to clear the search and declined to note that the citation did not substantiate the anti-Semitic connotation he based his column on. https://t.co/iRZZvoNWas

Holy crap.
BU students are typically Long Islanders who didn't have the grades to get into an Ivy or Mas-sholes who didn't have the grades to get into BC.
The world needs mid-level sales managers too.

That has always been my assumption. Like all the reasonably smart people who end up at Michigan State with their 3.2ish GPAs. And the 2.8 types who land at Central.

And then there's my alma mater with the 2.5 types. Maybe.

Senator from Hawaii with an amazing response to Stephens...
First they came for the New York Times columnists. And I didn’t speak for him because he has his own column plus they didn’t actually come for him.

And Fade, the 2.5 types at NMU are far better than the 2.2 types at Lake State.

Well, that goes without saying. Even Frank Anzalone once called LSSU "a glorified high school".

Reminds me of our "if you're happy and you know it" cheer back during the CCHA days.
It's been changed in the last decade, but the verses used to be:
1. If you can't get into college go to State
2. If you can't get into State go to Western
3. If you can't get into Western go back to high school
4. If you can't into high school go to Ferris
If you can’t get into college
And you don’t possess the knowledge
Go to state
If you want to drive a bus go to state
...
If you want to drive a bus, without the college fuss
Go to state
When in doubt, go to Stout!

In high school if something went wrong for our team on the ice/field it was often:
That's all right
That's ok
You'll all work for us some day!
Mostly used when playing Richfield, Cooper, Osseo...
We also held up newspapers during sections when the opposing team's players were introduced, or stood up and turned our backs...
It is reassuring that in these troubled times the internet continues to reach new lows.

Today I learned Aaron Carter is still alive.
How could you forget that time he beat up Shaquille O'Neal?
