Instead of waiting until year-end, I compiled enough material for January. No guarantee I can do it on a monthly basis throughout the year, but testing the waters.

I’ll post few of my favorites in several segments. (Some include minor edits for clarity/concision.)

If anyone has other nuggets I didn't include, please post!

From the thread: Mid-week Mailbag 1-9 -- regarding A-1/Heinz 57 debate
@MeanDean: Reminds me of when people used to say that putting salt on something was an insult to the cook/chef. I always liked to say, "No, it's a compliment. It means I'm considering eating it."

@jcyclonee: It's also an insult if you can't eat your sushi whole. Sorry. Make your sushi smaller. I'm not Linda Lovelace.

**Several other gems followed, I couldn’t keep up!**


From the thread: Face … meet backboard

@madguy30: Sometimes it pays to be a marginal athlete so you don't have to worry about things like that. And by “you” I mean ”me.”

@Blandboy: Definitely targeting...led with the crown of his head!

@LindenCy: Any report on his health? That was brutal.
@Blandboy: He has a headache

@coolerifyoudid: He's facing a few issues, but he's tackling them head-on.


From the thread: Iowa’s collapse begins in January
@cyrocksmypants: They’ve got to just pump a **** ton of artificial noise into (Carver-Hawkeye). At one point the place sounded raucous, but when I looked at the crowd, nobody was clapping or cheering. It reminded me of the old PS2 basketball games where the crowd gets loud, but it’s just like paper cutouts when you look at it.

SEGMENT 2

From the thread: Tournament question 1/12 (**posted following home loss to KSU**)
@CloneGuy8: Where do you think we will end up on Selection Sunday?
@jameswalden: Ames

From the thread: *** Official Iowa State vs. Texas Tech Game(Day) ***
@IASTATE07: I think we win by 4
@madguy30: WHY NOT 5?

From the thread: Friday OT(2): Rainy Days and Mondays
@mj4cy: We have a bottle of bubbly we haven't gotten to yet from NYE. That should do it. Kids can fend for themselves...

From the thread: Midweek Mailbag - I’m Taking Over This Week
@cycloneeric:
1. For tradition's sake, HOW DARE YOU?
2. Tournament or not?
3. Following on 2, if not, hot seat or not?
4. Also, HOW DARE YOU?

From the thread: Other Big 12/SEC Challenge Games.
@fsanford: KSU threw up enough bricks to build a house for the 3rd little pig …

@coolerifyoudid: How many used car salesmen did Frank Martin have to kill to make that suit?

From the thread: Friday OT — Just a shy guy looking for a 2-ply
@ruxCYtable: There’s no logical reason for (this), but I'm not putting Hy-Vee deodorant on my pits or Walmart shampoo in my pretty hair.

Another from my list. I had a couple more, but they require too much context for full effect.

From the thread: Guys, I Miss Curly Head Girl**

@cmjh10: .I really didn’t need that picture in my head again.
@cycloneeric: Truth. My eyes aren’t what they once were, but that didn’t help. Even my eyes might have thrown up a little.

** Among my favorite thread titles from January :)
