The best description of Bama fandom I've seen
« on: February 07, 2012, 11:23:56 AM »
Can't give myself credit but I saw somewhere else the best short summation of the Bama mindset as it pertains to Auburn, themselves and the rivalry.  It's a brilliant take. 


Almost all Alabama fans honestly believe Auburn is always on the brink of total collapse while Alabama is always on the brink of total domination. 

That's perfect.  It explains the puzzled, rampaging assholery when AU is on top as it has been for most of their lives.  It explains the arrogance.  It explains the braying, ignorant assholery when UA is successful. It explains every single call to Finebaum's show over the past decade.  99% of them have that attitude bred into them when their father and his sister/cousin hook up and make babies.

assholery.  My vocabulary just expanded.  Assholery will be used often in casual conversation.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

Cognitive dissonance.

You can keep a wooden stake in your trunk
On the off-chance that the fairy tales ain't bunk
And Imma keep a bottle of that funk
To get motel parking lot, balcony crunk.
