My roundup of notable comments & quips from Cyclone Fanatic for April.
Far from exhaustive, merely a sample of amusements I encountered. If anyone recalls a nugget I missed, feel free to add.
I included links to a few threads that are worth extended viewing.
Some entries have been edited for clarity or brevity.
Possibly a bonus entry coming, I’ll post that separately. (Too lengthy for the main section).
From the thread “Cheese”
@Mr Janny: I definitely "buy the cheese" in our relationship.
@Angie: WTH does that even mean?!
From “Robert Jones commits to ISU”
@Cyched: Will Garcia follow?
@I@ST1: Who is Will Garcia?
@CycloneErik: Why is Will Garcia?
@Cyforce: “Will” is a verb.
@1100011CS: Don’t call him that.
@CySmurf: When there's a Will Garcia...
@CYCLNST8: There’s a Way Garcia?
***
CycloneErik: There are 90 billion players entering the transfer portal.
@Cycl1: I'm no mathematician, but that estimate seems high.
From “Porter Moser to Oklahoma”
@Dandy: An absolute murderers’ row of Big 12 coaches ... and TJ. I’m kidding!! Kinda …
@stormchaser2014: In before “Prohm to Loyola.”
@Drew0311: I could see Prohm to Loyola.
From “‘80s Music”
@Gunnerclone: Mods: Please merge with my Cutting Crew thread.
***
@harimad: You had me until you ripped on Janet Jackson. Were you dropped on your head?
@jcyclonee: If I had a dollar for every time I was asked that question ...
From “Official NCAA Tournament Thread”
@Acylum: Mark Vital reminds me a little of Deonte Burton.
@CychiatricWard: If Deonte was fatter and less athletic, and couldn’t shoot, I guess a little bit.
***
@HoopsTournament: Does that Coca-Cola commercial really make anyone want to drink Coke?
@Gnomeborg: It makes me want to **** a werewolf.
HoopsTournament: THAT'S TOO MUCH INFORMATION.
***
@mynameisjonas: If UCLA wins, Bill Walton’s head might finally explode.
@CyCrazy: If that happens, everyone in LA will get a contact high.
***
@Clonehomer: Did Barkley refer to the Houston coach as “Kevin”?
@Cyched: Kevin Simpson. I heard he put Indiana State on probation.
***
@CycloneErik (re: Final Four pregame): Wow, did Greg Gumbel just explain that the teams that win today advance to the title game on Monday? That changes everything about how I watch this tournament.
From “Bolton officially in portal”
@Statefan10: Come for the Bolton transferring news, stay for the argument about whether Jacob Park was good or not. I love this place.
@legi: You gotta go to the Jacob Park thread if you want any Bolton news.
***
@Jeremy: When every day turns into a "Monday,” you can take your glass half-full and shove it up your a**.
From “What are is fondness memories from 99-00 team?”
@cyrocksmypants: Did I have a stroke reading that thread title?
From “Navigation Tips and Cyclones History”
@CoachHines3: I’m coach Hines. Not a real coach.
@cmjh10: Why am I paying you to be my life coach, then?
CoachHines: Life’s a garden. Dig it. That'll be $2,000, please.
From “EGGPLANT??!!”
@JStanz51: Some people went to journalism school to change the world. I went to give people the ability to show off their arousal with a cartoon vegetable. We are not the same.
From “Baylor Booster’s Cringey Interview”
@HFCS: I feel like Baylor as a national champion fits the Biff Tannen Pleasure Palace timeline of “Back to the Future: Part II,” along with many other events of recent years.
From “Fran Losing Multiple Players!”
@Sigmapolis: What would Iowa’s starting lineup even be at this point?
@CyTwins: McCaffrey, Perkins, McCaffrey, Murray, Fat Kid.
From “What in the World … ”
@20eyes: Would.
@GTO: Until you find out how she cleans herself.
@20eyes: Probably still would.
***
@CYCLNST8: I can’t judge. In college, I used a trombone as a beer bong.
@JM4CY: I used a lacrosse stick a few times.
From “Nephews Swear and Watch swearing YouTube Videos …”
@BCClone: The oldphews are the ones to be concerned about.
***
@BWRhasnoAC: When I was 3, my parents and I were eating at a diner off I-80 with a bunch of blue-hairs. I dropped my drink and exclaimed, “Well f*** a nun!” Happens to everyone.
From “Work From Home Boom Will Lift Productivity”
@BCClone: Work-from-home probably reduces office affairs.
@CloneIce: Yeah, that’s one major negative to it.
@MeowingCows: Now, you just have regular affairs with non-co-workers during the workday!
From “Tom Manning a Candidate for KU Job”
@acoustimac: The KU coaching job is like doing drugs.
@coolerifyoudid: I feel like this is an insult to good drugs.
From “The Daily Effing Grind”
@Gossamer: Do you ever just get tired … of the constant drone of everything? What does everyone do to kick this **** to the curb and feel no weight...I'm curious.
@cyclone4L: Drugs. Lots and lots of drugs.
***
@bannedman: Anyone else burnt out of drinking at home?
@CyOps: Yes. I go to the neighbor's house now.
