Even if it is about a UM WI game that people are going to this week?
Please advise, because I don't understand how off-topic is defined.
November 8th, 2009 at 4:10 PM ^
It is defined as such:
"You're always wrong and someone will always whine about it no matter how hard you try to be correct."
IME you're fine on this one, but everyone's got a different e-pinion on it.

I guess what I said was ok, but I should probably have clarified in the title: "For those going to the wisconsin game"

Now I get it.

"• If one is thought of as offensive looking, it is illegal for him to be in public during the day."
I'm going to be in Madison, but apparently I'm not allowed in public.

Death penalty if you wear a mock block of cheese on your head!

If you get the electric chair, it melts the cheese on your head.

Upon arrival in Madison, you need to distinguish tailgating friends from Cheese heads. So interview people and find out the following:
You might be from Wisconsin …if
you instinctively walk like a penguin for five months out of the year,
you have worn shorts and a parka at the same time,
you have had a lengthy telephone conversation with someone who dialed a wrong number
your idea of a traffic jam is ten cars waiting to pass a tractor.
your neighbor throws a party to celebrate his new pole shed.

Lmao "Worry a squirrell." That's classic.
November 8th, 2009 at 6:46 PM ^
That raises the question: how DO you worry a squirrel?
If they're anything like the ones in Ann Arbor, you won't be able to do it. The Ann Arbor squirrels are beasts, and had no problem following me to class in furry rage because I dared to stop at the ledge they were sitting on so I could tie my shoe.

"Whenever two vehicles collide at an intersection, kinetic energy must be conserved in order for it to be considered an elastic collision. Otherwise, the right-of-way is to be yielded to the uniform body in motion, assuming the collision is inelastic."
Who comes up with this crap?

"Yaa, takerite at da stopngo lites. Dat der too yet once dontchaknow!"

On a serious note, when I was stationed at Great Lakes
Naval Station, a friend and I found out that 15 over
and an out of state drivers license = a night in Jail.
I had to go get money and post bond for the guy driving.
If you're driving to the game, be careful.

A dude I know once spent a night in jail in Tijuana for being an American in Tijuana. They let him go the next day after he paid them enough. Corrupt much?
