Your RBR Word of the Day: Solecism

by Todd on Mar 4, 2008 7:59 AM CST in Humor

solecism \SOL-uh-siz-uhm\, noun:
1. A nonstandard usage or grammatical construction; also, a minor blunder in speech.
2. A breach of good manners or etiquette.
3. Any inconsistency, mistake, or impropriety.

After the recent unpleasantness, wearing one of these to the RBR tailgate would be an unpardonable solecism.

Thanks

for bringing this back. Vocabulary is an important part of a complete breakfast.

I would personally

stab whomever wore this, then throw them to the drunkest, raunchiest redneck tailgaters I could find as raw meat.

Loved this

when you did it before. I look forward to more. You do crack me up, Todd. How can anyone say we're unintelligent when we have this kind of vocabulary? Also, please make "Parole Tide" shirts are off limits too!!!

Hopefully

it wasn't my "Hank, Jr just doesn't do it for me as RBR beefcake material" comment that made you question my loyalty and devotion, Todd.

How can you not love...

...this winning smile?

I laughed too

Here are a couple more funny things I've seen-

"Recruiting success simple -- Regarding Alabama's success in recruiting: The answer is quite simple. They have the best bail bondsman program in the Southeastern Conference."

"Is it true that Nick Saban and Phil Fulmer plan a prisoner exchange program to fill out their spring football rosters?"

Just add "Parole Tide" to "Honk If You Sacked Brodie" and "Punt, Bama, Punt"(I lived through this when I was in Tuscaloosa, so that dates me).

Punt, Bama, Punt

I have a picture of me as a little girl holding this bumper sticker. My aunt and uncle are evil people!

Roll Tide!

I take it

your aunt and uncle went to Auburn? My cousin who went to the Barn put a sticker on my car when I was home for the holidays that year. I didn't like her before we went to college, but we really became enemies after that. We still don't speak.
