Fumble

A coach that tells players a fumble can't happen in a game isn't helping helping them look at the game realistically. Fumbles can and do happen in a game. Expecting a player to play perfect instead of human in a game doesn't allow them to improve any, they're already expected to be at one hundred percent during one hundred percent of the time. The reality is people will make mistakes, and those mistakes will cost them.

The point is not whether you fumble, it's what you do after you fumble. Whether you can fumble and keep going, or whether a fumble breaks you down to the point you can go no further after one.

Lego

I used to know a black guy who talked like this. He would say to a woman "Lego this way" and she would reply with something like "Lego of me!" I don't know why the guy left the letter t out of everything he said. He seemed like a nice guy.

You heard her, she said lego. Lego.

Chimpanzee hairline

When a guys hairline is just above his eyebrows. Also called a onehead or a two-year, depending on how close the hairline comes to touching the eyebrows. Usually a guy with a chimp hairline has round or circular ears that stick out straight from the side of his head.

That Justin kid has a chimpanzee hairline. I don't even think he has half a forehead.

Paleophile

Someone who is attracted to old people.

1) Either Jigsaw was a pedophile, or his wife was a paleophile in the Saw movies.

2) Did you see the paleophile chick with the 80 year old midget?

Pete Townshend

Its interesting how people ignore the likelihood that a guy like Pete Townshend would happily try and put them out on the street because he is talented at something they like (music). Some people even think the guy is awesome even though they've never met him and dont know him.

Before the Who, who the fuck was Pete Townshend? Without the Who, who the fuck is Pete Townshend?

Late bloomer

Someone who is not in the in crowd.

I was always the 4'11 kid in my school, I even made a few appearances on the TV show Are you taller than a 5th grader my senior year of high school, just before graduation. After losing to about half the 5th graders that showed up and getting called the midget, I decided I would get even by outsmarting all these other kids. I felt so small at that point in my life. I made a lot of bad things happen to people at school that pissed me off back then, but I straightened out when I turned 18, and I started to straighten other people out who were imperfect sinners like me too. I broke a few noses, dodged a few bullets, turned a few tables, and did shit like that after turning 18 that I never got to do in my deprived childhood. By the age of 25 I had reached my true stature (one that would not get me laughed at by the goliaths of the world) of almost 6 foot, but I realized nobody wanted to fuck me because they thought I was a loser. I always had a lot of catching up to do in life for being the late bloomer that I am. Females never took me seriously because I thought I looked like Kevin Costner though in reality they would make rivet sounds when I was in the same room with them, and they thought I was ugly and stupid and made them sick.

Misinformation

Usually someone who starts a string of misinformation knows its bad information. Early settlers in North Carolina were Scots Irish, not Irish. Something seemingly minor and harmless can end up doing a lot of damage to the lives of other people though. The average black guy or girl going to work every day and living out their life wouldn't have time or a reason to know that Irish Catholics and Scots Irish are not the same people without having spent time around them, and thus would not know that Irish Catholics didn't own slaves. This allows for more ignorance of the other group, not less. Its the same ignorance as a white guy who doesn't know that not all Nigerians are the same religion (some Christian, some Muslim, some don't go to a church or a mosque at all, and so on), or that not all Muslims are terrorists. A lot of white guys go to work every day and live their lives out without having spent a lot of time around people from other groups, and don't know when they're being given a string of information, and its a good thing some do.

Lindsay wanted to continue sending out strings of misinformation to keep people from all groups on edge around each other.
