Around SBN: Events Cause Mariners To Lose To Rangers

Reason #178 to hate Northwestern: Purple Sucks

Seriously.  Think about it.  It's the worst color in the double rainbow.  It's the "leftover" color that no one else wanted. There isn't anything good in the world that is purple.  I've done the research.  Here's the proof.

Doneeggplant_medium

Eggplant.  Worst vegetable there is.  I would rather stick a banana pepper in my pee hole than eat an eggplant.

 

Doneplum_medium

Plums.  Worst fruit there is.  Tastes like a peach that went through the laundry and gives you diarrhea.

 

Doneurchin8_medium

Sea Urchins.  Useless.  Prickly little assholes of the sea.

Star-divide

Donegatorade_medium

Rain Gatorade.  Terrible idea.  Tastes like bathroom spray.  Hopefully they've had the sense to discontinue this shit.

 

Donegrimace_medium

Grimace.  Fat furry blob trying to sell greasy fast food to kids.  Real asshole move there, Grimace.

 

Donebieber_medium

Justin Bieber.  The Oracle loves purple.  Justin Bieber sucks worse than the worst sucking thing you can think of.

 

 

Donetubby_medium

Tinky Winky.  Listen, Jerry Falwell was a seriously insane piece of shit and this has nothing to do with sexual orientation.  The simple fact is, Tinky Winky is a jerk. 

 

5309275651969deeppurple_medium

Deep Purple.  Every untalented fartbag in America that has ever picked up a guitar has played the intro to "Smoke on the Water."  If I can play it, it sucks.

 

Donevikingsfanssmall_medium

The Minnesota Vikings.  Their team is turds-in-cleats and their fans dress one small step less-assholish than Raiders fans.

 

Donefat_medium

This obese woman smoking cowboy killers.  She likes purple.  Hey, are those Crocs?  Yep.  Perfect.  Go Wildcats.

 

Donedoucher_medium

 

Mr. Doucher.  A little-known Mr Men book about a stupid yelling dickhole football coach in Evanston.

 

 

Donewhore_medium

Purple eye shadow.  It's what whores wear.

Wasn't really on board

until the Mr. Men reference. Loved those books as a kid.

But yes, in general, purple is a shitty color.

Less memorable than Sam Okey's Hawkeye career.

I caught myself wearing purple on Tuesday and I freaked out a little.

I didn’t want another PSU toenail polish fiasco so I have worn black and gold since. I also changed my email replies from purple to a drab green. I was worried about MSU but the greens are quite different.

by Carfino'sWay on Oct 14, 2011 11:22 AM CDT up reply actions  

You're good with the drab green

until the week of the MSU game. Then all shades of green are off limits. That will be another tough week for me as green is another good color for me. Plus I’m Irish. It’s pretty much blasphemous to eliminate green from my life for an entire week.

Did we just girlify this thread? Yep.

You can eat sea urchin?

Did anyone else have to dissect sea urchins in a high school bio lab?

Mixing urchin sperm and urchin eggs so we could study the embryos, if I remember correctly. Apparently they don’t even find themselves sexually attractive. Horrible little abominations. (also, RIP Mr. Benesh)

Actually...

“Eggplant. Worst vegetable there is. I would rather stick a banana pepper in my pee hole than eat an eggplant.”

-Don’t know what kind of fun you enjoy in the bedroom, but eggplant is delicious. Teach your woman to cook good Italian food.

“Plums. Worst fruit there is. Tastes like a peach that went through the laundry and gives you diarrhea.”

-Don’t know what is going on with your stomach, but that never happens to me. Also don’t know where you buy your fruit, again disagree.

“Sea Urchins. Useless. Prickly little assholes of the sea.”

-Good Attempt, but Sea Urchins come in a variety of colors and the edibile part of the insides is delicious and is actually orange.

Other than that, Northwestern’s shade of purple does suck and makes me see red like a brahma bull. Screw them! Useless two-directional ‘school.’

Leave my eggplant, plums, and sea urchins alone, please That little pansy, illuminati, patsy Beiber, he is fair game. As is NW.
