Kansas Crimson

imagine some tiny shitty town, i dunno, lets call it fanhattan, has for the last 30 years had a st patty's day week, starting 7 days before st. patty's, where everyone dresses up, gets drunk and makes fools of themselves.

the pinnacle of this is on st pattys day itself where everyone goes to the public park and pisses in it. it's hilarious to most everyone in the town. sometimes they think it's so hilarious they do it on halloween too.

a new mayor comes along and the night of st patty's, hours after all the pissing in the park has happened, says, 'well that's disappointing. i think we're better than that. we should be taking pride in our town and not pissing on it.'

a citizen of fanhattan wakes up the next day, lets call him gurly, one of the rare citizens who doesn't like the st. patty's day pee, reads the paper and sees the new mayor's remarks.

"egad! he's done it! the piss is over now! finally, it's gone!"

yep, that manhattan is a dead town.

Why are you here? Are you bored? Lacking a hobby? Need a more challenging job?

We do not care about the information that you are providing whatsoever. I have zero interest in any of this.

he's old. he lives in manhattan so there's nothing to do really.
his political career fizzled. his son is so disappointing, he can't even count to five.
a lot of message boreds have given him the boot.

ksu is the best it's been in what, 14 seasons?
it's all he's got.

oh, and don't forget this dead town project now under construction. it's dead. it's dead.

Scorpion will join a soon-coming national bio-defense laboratory that is also being constructed in Manhattan and Kansas State University. "The $650 million business investment project will create 500 new, high-paying jobs in Manhattan within the next seven years," the release said.

I don’t think you’ll find anyone here who would, like, root against Manhattan getting stronger economically.

On the one hand, this is inarguably true.

On the other, the Hootervillains make common cause with and admire the descendants of Quantrill.

And who is surprised?

the similarities with the tiggers/slavers is actually quite staggering

where's surly?

what's up?

how about all the ksu fans making fun of Bill Self's trip to the hospital?
thoughts?

Consistent with the tigger/slaver similarities, it’s about on par with when the antlers chanted, “No Mom Tom”
