Ask a Beaver - Random thoughts from your newest member...

Welcome! Question for you. Why does a beaver need a chainsaw? I mean, it's the one animal that wouldn't need a chainsaw, right? Its whole thing is cutting wood with its teeth.

When was the last time you had a Dutch Bros. coffee, and in which town did you purchase it?

Also, mods, can we change the name of this thread to "ask a Beaver"? I have a lot of questions for this guy.

We have Dutch Bros in Phoenix

Mother ****er, attaching a pic from an iPad is always impossible for me .

Pound the pelt into submission, Go Buffs
 
Despite getting revenge last year, 2014 still stings.

We also shouldn't be trailing the series against these guys. It'd be like trailing K-State. This is the type of opponent we need to be leading about 40-10 in the overall series in a few decades time. The sooner we remedy that, that better.

If you were better at this you'd know that the lesser OSU's didn't start out as OSUs either.

By the way, I hope Glove sticks around long after Saturday's game.

^^^This^^^
Since the Walrus apparently kidnapped Flukes, Canadian Duck is mostly on hiatus, and I have Devildog on ignore, we have precious few visiting fans who are amusing. I second the motion to enslave Glove to be our West Coast reporter.

What team did Wally root for?
 
Flukes needs to come back. Drunken bears are hard to come by.

Especially if you don't speak Russian.

Seems to be an old Big 8 thing...OU, NU, CU ...

It's actually an older, general midwestern-ish thing- University of Tulsa (TU), University of Denver (DU), but it is certainly best on display with the old Big 8 schools.

The other question- isn't the plural of buffalo just buffalo? A herd of buffalo? If the plural adds an s, does it really need the e, i.e., buffalos?
Aren't they really bison?

From the outside, we must look pretty strange.
 
I wonder if the nubs get these same questions.

MU seems to have dropped that completely and just goes by Mizzou anymore.

Yes, and to sound more important, we pronounce it bee-sone, with a very soft 'n'

This drives my elementary school teacher wife absolutely nuts.
 
So.... If a beaver beats up little sister, who's hand sign is also a beaver, are they engaged or fighting over the family trailer?
