August BOCAs

Frayed Knot
Sep 01 2009 09:16 AM

A somewhat abbreviated 'Bullet of Cool' lineup this month, a condition caused by any one of several factors:
- I was away for part of the time
- not as diligent as I should have been
- no one picking up the slack in my (mental or real) absence
Or maybe we're just not posting well as a group lately (golden oldie right there).

But that doesn't mean we were totally clueless during August even if the team was. So without further ado:



The Bad Strategy Explanation of the Month:
Razor Shines would wave the Titanic right into the iceberg if you let him. -- Fman99

The 'Friends Don't Let Friends Stat Drunk' Post of the Month

The 'Why Religion is Rarely Discussed Here' Example of the Month
Wait-- you mean there ISN'T one giant, Biblical-sense-awesome penis in the sky?
Then what the hell have I been tithing to? -- LWFS

The 'You Laugh Because it's True' Line of the Month
Let's be clear here. If Derek's test came back positive there would be major investigations... of the testing process. -- Edgy DC

The 'No Really Officer, I'm Fine' Statement of the Month
All I did all weekend was frink and duck. -- Edgy DC

The 'Does Your Husband Pitch Too?' Question of the Month
If for no other reason, Giants deserve to lose for the landing strip on Affeldt. I half expected to see female genitalia under there. -- Piggies Tomatoes

The 'Tell Us How You Really Feel' Post of the Month
Jeter is a douchebag prick who kicks puppies, spits on little old ladies, tips poorly, parks in handicapped spaces, makes fun of fat people, steals ice cream from little kids, snitches, and has bad breath. Tiger is not. -- Centerfield

The 'What Planet are You From Dude?' Statement of the Month
Wait, you used logic and reason but your wife still doesn't see things your way? That's shocking. That like, never happens to me. Ever. -- Centerfield

And, finally, The Images of the Month -- Edgy DC

I just told my Mom I swept the Bullies like Bonnie Raitt in 1990. She's thrilled.

My mom just mumbled something about Christopher Cross and hung up.
