Kansas State Basketball is hard / Re: K-State versus KthUg score predictos

KU hasn't seen a defense like K-State's.

K-State hasn't seen whistle-happy, Hawk-humping, home-cooking officiating like they will at the Phag.

KU 86
KSU 79

What is sexier than a +20 turnover margin?  Sheesh!

Kansas State Football / Re: I Don't Think I'm Dealing With This Very Well

« on: November 14, 2012, 06:39:12 PM »

I think what's freaking me out the most this season is that stupid video I made in 2008, the one about the Tarot cards.  When I predicted Prince would be fired after his third season, it was a safe bet.  When I said his replacement would win a national championship, I was just farting purple smoke--I didn't really believe it anymore than I believed all of my own Catmatt Mojo BS. 

Now, however, if it comes true, I'm going into hiding like Mick Jagger after he saw Sam Shepherd's Tooth of Crime.  Last thing I need right now is to get burned at the stake.

Essentially Flyertalk / Re: Movie Lines that you routinely use in your everyday life

Mine are from older movies and such. 

When being rushed to do something I don't want to do:  "We got our own lives to live, like, we ain't had breakfast yet."

When I have to go old school on someone:  "Make me an Old Fashioned the old fashioned way, the way dear old Dad used to do it."

When I settle up a bet I lost:  "And that should cover everything, including the emancipation of women."

Pretty much multiple scenarios:  "You look like the vermin-ridden son of a bitch you are."

Seeing a hot girl:  "How'd you like to sink your teeth in that, develop lock-jaw, and get dragged to death?"

I cannot make any sense out of the garbage receipt.

Some people are just self-important assholes who think it's their job to make sure everyone else is falling in line. Apparently Manhattan has a lot of these types.

rough ridin' Kansas has a lot of these types.  One of the reasons I hate this state.  If they aren't peeking in your window and talking about what they see the next day at the donut shop, they're engaging you in a conversation, feeling you out to see what you want or need at the moment, then telling you it can never happen and punctuating it with "I can tellya that right now."  Examples:

"You ain't gonna get that car started.  I can tellya that right now."

"Yore new lawn ain't gonna come in even with the heat wave comin'.  I can tellya that right now."

"Ain't nobody gonna beat Obama come November.  I can tellya that right now."

"K-State ain't gonne beat KU in basketball for another 25 years.  I can tellya that right now."

All this anger is directed at the wrong people. We need not be pissed ad the AD, Frank, Jamar, or whoever else in the KSU CoC.

The bastard who reported this is to blame. The KSU administration was in a difficult predicament when the information was reported to them. I don't fault our administration and it's tough to get too pissed at JamSam for a measly $200. However, I do have a raging hardon for the jackass at Dillons who thought he needed to report this information. That dumbass deserves to have his legs broken.

My sentiments exactly.  It really sucks that the whistle-blower, like some Internet troll, gets to remain anonymous.  Give me a name, and I'm just crazy, angry, and stupid enough to take care of it.

You know how in Blood Diamond they said TIA for This Is Africa as a way to explain the unexplainable there in Sierra Leone?  Well, I like to say TIK for This Is Kansas, or the former Mrs. CM says "OINK" which is "O. in K." for Only In Kansas.

And Only In Kansas are people so damned nosy, so damned concerned about everyone else's business, that they must report the slightest discrepancy in the status quo.  They are like white trash paparazzi looking for that money shot of a local celeb doing something mundane so they can skew it to mean something controversial.

'clams, what's your take on Aubrey?  I feel like she's thrown in the towel on singing or whatever and decided she's going to be a celebrity reality show villain as her new career.

Also, the receptionist is totally weirding me out.

Agreed.  Receptionist is weird.  And Aubrey used to be hot back in the day.  That fire-red hair is freaky-deaky.

Essentially Flyertalk / Catmatt's Belated Eulogy

« on: March 17, 2012, 11:25:36 AM »

For some damn reason, I can't seem to log into my identity known as Dingo, so I had to create a new one here.  In the tradition of KatKid morphing into Mr_KK, Catmatt is now morphing into Mr_CM.

It is a beautiful St. Patrick's Day, the Cats have just tipped off against the Orange, and after a long hiatus I popped back onto this site to learn the tragic news about Fatty.  My heart breaks.  I have been out of the loop.  The one thing I remember about Fatty is how he and I used to discuss collaborating on videos.  He offered me access to his extensive video collection, and while he didn't always jive with the kind of silly crap I did, he did often say that he liked my narration voice and suggested I narrate one of his videos some time.

Of course that did not pan out.

I never knew the man personally (although we had a standing date to hook up for a beer whenever I was in Manhattan), but it feels as if I lost a friend.  Worse, because I have been out of the loop, it feels like my last high school class reunion, where I discovered that old friend with whom I had lost touch had died in the interim.  You don't know how to feel, what the proper mourning response is.

I have had my issues with you.  But losing Fatty puts things in perspective.  We are all K-State brethren, and even though we mess with each other quite a bit, there will always be a connection because of our love of the purple. 

I hope you are all lifting a mug of green beer in Fatty's honor today, and may the Cats go on to beat the 'Cuse.  I am sure Fatty is up there somewhere smiling at the thought of that.
