MAIDEN!

I played (American) football in high school, was in the middle of the most pit in my collegiate years, and have ran 12 marathons and backpacked to the bottom of the Grand Canyon and back up in my post-collegiate years.

I don't use cologne or any other male beauty products, nor do I listen to Depeche Mode, Erasure, or other synth-pop bands.

Though I have nothing against people who are big wusses, I hardly think I qualify.

I can see how I don't and never did fit the stereotype of a metal fan. But metal was the music of choice for teenage males in upstate NY in the early 80's, so there I was.
Yeah but did you score five touchdowns in one game at Polk High and become a woman's shoe salesman?

I don't use cologne or any other male beauty products, SMELLY BASTARD nor do I listen to Depeche Mode, Erasure, or other synth-pop bands. DON'T TRY TO DRAG MARKIE INTO THIS.

Though I have nothing against people who are big wusses, I hardly think I qualify. SPITTING IN THE FACE OF ANOTHER MAN IS NOT WUSSY?

SHEEP!

I think you're a smelly bastard if you DO wear cologne. Keep your stink water away from me.

Time isn't the crucial element, finishing is.

That's just something slow people say to make themselves feel better.
I thought calling people "big wusses" was something slow people say to make themselves feel better.

I thought it was very "euro" and seemed strangely appropriate for the situation…"when in Siena…"

started out as a "tight end" but finished the season as a "wide receiver :eek: ," I would assume….

Just have Rhett try spitting in the face of a Brit, then you'll see how "euro" it is.
Actually, it's probably very British to get spit on considering the lack of teeth lets spit fly all over the place.
Ok Mankie…

You're in a foreign country where you don't speak the language, all of your possessions are in a different city, you have hotel reservations in a third and fourth cities two and five days later, respectively, you've spent hundreds of dollars on train reservations between these cities, and you have a flight back home from a fifth different city ten days later.

A strange man starts physically harassing your wife. What do you do?
