Lakers Historian

A basketball fan who is specifically a supporter of the NBA team the Los Angeles Lakers, and wears their jersey at any game outside of Los Angeles of a rival team who are facing the Lakers that night, but do not know any of the current members of the team.

An off-breed of the Sports Asshole (who only shows up to games to boo the home team for fun), Lakers Historians are identified by wearing the jersey of a player who used to play for the franchise but no longer does. (i.e. Kobe Bryant, Magic Johnson, Shaquille O'Neal, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar ) These specific markings (or names and numbers) are a sign that they're fans of what the team used to be in their glory days and don't keep up with who is on the team now while they're terrible. Hence, why they're not identified as a regular "Lakers Fan".

They're also not to be confused as an actual Basketball Historian, who cares about the history of the game as a whole, and not what one team did in three specific time periods.
Fred: Why's that guy wearing a Lakers jersey to a Jazz game?
Craig: Oh, he's just a Lakers Historian. Check it, he's wearing #8.

historian

A student, archivist, and author of popular fiction. A quixotic hero. Eschews paradox in favor of imposing a coherent, and therefore false, narrative interpretation of the past. Still, without historians we would be even more clueless about our intellectual, political, social, and economic context. Historians create the narratives that shape our sense of heritage and our perception of "who we are." The study of history is therefore both futile and vital.
"Historian - a broad-gauge gossip." -Ambrose Bierce
"History does not repeat itself. Historians repeat each other." -Arthur Balfour

Orwellian Historian

Someone who erases the past to fit their vision of the present. From the George Orwell novel '1984'.
Why dwell on your sad childhood memories? Just have a orwellian historian take your unhappy pictures and home movies and have them destroyed. Then you block them out of your mind for good.

Hictorian

Tacky Victorian style, reflecting more "country charm" than authentic Victorian style. Epitomized by plastic flowers, fake antique furnishings, and by an over-abundance of doilies and potpourri.
Although claiming to be built in the 1870's and restored to its original architectural character, the Bed and Breakfast was more Hictorian than Victorian.

historians

the new master race of the world, despite what might have been said by the most loose ho in the history of the planet.
historians are cool, nikki is just jealous because she is a loose ho who likes to take it in the ass and partake in a spit roast. A 10 pint challenge indeed.
