When a cab driver does not take the best route to your destination, thus racking up your fare.

Frank - "Hey man let's just take a cab, it will be a 5 minute ride."

Marty - "I think we should walk. I'm sure we would get Notre Damed by a dishonest cab driver."

a college in south bend, indiana with a lot of rich wise ass whores who think that theyre all that, but if they were really all that they would gotten into yale or havard. it is also a very, very big gothic style cathedral in paris, france. it was also the setting for Victor Hugos "the hunchback of notre dame".
Notre Dame is technically not pronounced correctly in America, just like alot of streets, counties, and cities are pronounced differently in original French.

Wow and you go to community college or something I'm guessing?...First of all, Notre Dame is an amazing school and we're the highest ranked Catholic school in the country. (Take that Gtown). Secondly, I know plenty of people currently attending ND who turned down schools like Harvard, Yale, Stanford, and Princeton.

Badmouth Notre Dame all you want but at the end of the day, you're just jealous because you didn't get in. Oh and if we're rich, attractive, intelligent, and damn proud of all of the above, we've got every right to be.
Nd hater: You went to Notre Dame? They're such rich assholes that would only be cool if they had gone to yale or harvard.

ND alum: Could you fill it up with super? I have to get over to the club

"Michigan has more overall wins, a higher winning percentage, more all time bowl appearences, more national titles depending on who you ask, a winning record against ND."

A university that does not 1) admit based on race; 2) whose football team did not participate in bowls for over 30 years, making "bowl appearances" comparisons idiotic; 3) has more consensus--that means that most experts agree and is the truest measure you can hope for--national titles than anyone, period. Michigan is not even close, and if you compare apples to apples (i.e. use Michigan's retarded method for counting titles), it is about 19 to 11 ND; 4)could not play against Michigan for roughly 70 years, during its dynasty years when it would have decimated Michigan 2 years out of 3, because of UMich's virulent anti-Catholic (yet adamantly pro-minority-at-all-costs) attitude.
If Notre Dame could disregard academic standards like UMich, it would be playing for a national title most years.

The best school in the nation when it comes to academics, athletics,food, and faculty. More Heismen Trophy's and National Championships in football that anyone else. Best Graduation rate in country. Highest Fresh-Soph retention rate in Country.
ND student: Sweet, our football team is going to another BCS bowl game.

CAL student: While, at least our school is incredibly biased and admits too many Asians.

ND student: No its all good. Notre Dame has a support club in Iraq, and in over 150 more countries.

CAL student: Well we have one in China!

ND student: Oh, look at the paper. Our women's soccer and men's hockey teams are now ranked number one in the country!

CAL student: While are ping-pong team is ok. I guess.

A second-rate Catholic University in the middle of nowhere known for it's football team, not its academics. It is a school that is typically reserved for young Catholics who wanted to go to school in Boston, DC, or Philadelphia, but could not gain admission to Boston College, Georgetown, or Villanova.
Son: I would like to go to BC or Georgetown, but I don't have the academic credentials to get in.
Mother: You could always try that Notre Dame place.
Son: Nah, I think I will just go to the local community college.
