Yesterday, I was at the mall and I ran into an old friend (no - not with my car). He had his cousin with him. We started talking and his cousin (whom I'd never met) told me he played college basketball in HS and then at a DII school.

I told him I was a referee and he said, "I thought so - you look like a referee."

I asked him what a referee "looked like" and he replied "mean".

The title of this thread says, "Do <i>we</i> look a certain way?"

So what's with the "we"?

I'm at this brownpop establishment contributing to the local economy, and from across the room, I see this BEAUTIFUL brunette walking towards me. Naturally, I thought I had mustard on my upper lip, because there was no other reason for her to be appraoching me. Turns out she thought she recognized me, but wasn't sure. (Perhaps it was the dark lighting.)

After talking to her for a few minutes, I learned that she knew it was me by my mannerisms and hand gestures, especially when I pointed. (She used to play in the local women's league.)

As for my "look", I'm not sure if I look like an official or not.

Yer cute, Jugular!

You never finished your story. Did you end up getting laid? Inquiring minds need to know! :D

Geeze, I hope so. Gets all the poisons out of your system. Lets you run faster too when you're officiating. And longer also(or so I've heard- I can't really remember that far back). It should be just as much part of your pre-game warm-up drills as stretching imho.

The fish nets might of gave yourself away.

You really are a knuckle-dragger, aren't you?

Well, you'll never get promoted to the exalted "knuckle-dragger" category if you fail to capitalize on opportunities like this. Your loss.

What's with the orange flags? Did I miss another change?

W&S,

I am not sure where you're from, but I suspect it may interest you to know that I'm Canajun. Those are the flags we use here, and have been for quite some time. So if you're Canajun and missed that change, I wonder what else you missed; perhaps to move away from leather helmets. :D

A great, great movie.

OK, I'm not entirely clear on this but it might be you might want to have used lie or lay instead of laid. I can remember from high school Sister Mary Lizard asked me to give an example of the proper use of lay, lie or laid in a sentence. I said "I wish I could have laid Gina Marie Kozlowski last Saturday night". Apparently it was incorrect.

Love that movie. Got it both on DVD and VHS. It is a great one.

As to your grammar lesson, please replace my original question with <i>"Jughead, did you end up boinking her?"</i>. Unlike some knuckledraggers, I always like to use proper English.

Heck no, I was too busy eating burgers. After usually only being pursued by Big Ethel, I thought that the beautiful brunette was a set-up. :D
