wait, Nick, waht?

horseshoe, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:07 (sixteen years ago) link

I'm not true to my Scandinavian heritage. All of the food looked mushy and colorless to me (and meaty).

KitCat, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:08 (sixteen years ago) link

I would probably prefer the ones Nick had today.

KitCat, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:08 (sixteen years ago) link

Ha ha. It was a combo of:

1. Me being an obnoxious teenager
2. Me insisting that I didn't like spicy food
3. Me desperately trying to hold onto any sense of an American identity that I could

We did eat out at Indian restaurants sometimes, I would usually just eat meat and bread.

n/a, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:09 (sixteen years ago) link

I get that, actually. I missed American food something fierce after the second week of my most recent visit.

That went above and beyond.

horseshoe, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:25 (sixteen years ago) link

eh

n/a, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:30 (sixteen years ago) link

I like how it ramps up the silliness throughout the article, so that by the end he's just saying random stuff like "Brover Norquist."

Bro v. Wade!!!

It gets to be a frenzy.

Jesse, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:36 (sixteen years ago) link

what rights were guaranteed in the Bro vs. Wade case, do you think?

kenan, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:37 (sixteen years ago) link

also, what is the distinction between "to bro down" and "to bro up"?

horseshoe, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:38 (sixteen years ago) link

I have never heard "bro up"!

jaymc, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:39 (sixteen years ago) link

I've never heard bro up. Bitch up, yes.

Jordan, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:40 (sixteen years ago) link

Bitch up? I've heard "man up" and "cowboy up."

I remember having long conversations in college about "smoke up" vs. "smoke down" in which we determined that one of the two (no idea which now) was "an Ohio thing."

jaymc, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:41 (sixteen years ago) link

bro down: chillin, hangin at somebody's house with some tunes and some video games

bro up: donning the striped shirt, getting serious, getting wild, getting drunk, getting teh ladiez (or not)

kenan, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:41 (sixteen years ago) link

"down" and "up" indicate the overall energy level required.

kenan, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:42 (sixteen years ago) link

"Smoke down" must be the Ohio thing, I've never heard that one.

jon /via/ chi 2.0, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:42 (sixteen years ago) link

"bro up" is from that article!

"Who was the first to bro up and carry that fucking keg of k*ll*an's up four flights of stairs for Duke's surprise party?"

I guess it's like "man up" but more bro-y.

horseshoe, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:43 (sixteen years ago) link

I don't think I like interviewing bands. I kind of felt like a tool.

Jordan, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:43 (sixteen years ago) link

Urbandictionary.com sez "smoke down" is Michigan slang, which means that "smoke up" may have been the "Ohio thing," since my school was something like 70% in-state.

jaymc, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:45 (sixteen years ago) link

I've always heard smoke up.

Jordan, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:46 (sixteen years ago) link

yeah, smoke up is what they say everywhere I've ever lived.

Down bro with the brown dough.

Eazy, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:49 (sixteen years ago) link

"Smoke down" sounds more like an event you attend while, "smoke up" is what you do once you get there.

jon /via/ chi 2.0, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:49 (sixteen years ago) link

when i went to school in ohio everyone said 'up'

deej, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:50 (sixteen years ago) link

Down bro with the brown dough.

is this a euphemism for something... else?

kenan, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:51 (sixteen years ago) link

I didn't have much (read: any) experience with weed in the Chicago suburbs prior to college, so I heard the two terms interchangeably and wasn't sure which was the anomaly.

PHEW! I was really afraid that would to an urban dictionary definition that would give me night terrors.

the "face down" video is really a let down. No one is face down at all!

I was just thinking this morning how it would be fun to be in Gambier, Ohio, having coffee in the bookstore and going to a class today.

Eazy, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:00 (sixteen years ago) link

My heart is not really in this recurring two-year-old joke wherein I post photos of Wooster on threads that deej is on.

this thread is quickly going monkey side, and I fear I am to blame. :(
