if someone is agitated mission is accomplished
I guess?  I'm not much for pot-stirring.

The ags call us "t.u" and "t-sippers."  I think it's silly.  I've heard grown adults in a corporate boardroom use those terms, and it's really cringe when all of the Ivy League suits or MIT and Stanford engineers are like... "what?"  Then they have to awkwardly explain why they are still using juvenile insults directed at 1/20 people in the room.  Definitely career-limiting, but it doesn't seem to phase them...

We get called LSWho? a lot.

Always struck me as a bit unoriginal and needlessly generic.  You could insert Who? for almost every university, many of which have a "U" in their initials.  That's the biggest sign of disrespect, when people won't even take the trouble to come up with a decent insult for you. 

Like corndogs.  A) That's a Colorado jab hurled at Nebraska (Cornhuskers....makes much more sense) that was lazily co-opted by an Auburn fan one day and directed at us.  B) Corndogs are delicious, so it's not much of an insult. 

People ask me why I hate Auburn so much.  That's one of many reasons. 
I'd almost take a PurWho? from time to time, considering all the dummies who use Purdon't. 

I don't remember what board it was but there was an Indiana fan who always went by Purude IIRC...

"Purdon't."  I've never heard that, but it made me chuckle.  

"PU"

.....is what I say when I smell something gross.

i was wondering, cause it's a dig they use. but some people use it genuinely not knowing. i didn't know which you were.

not sure why it's a dig for them. they have their own system with satellite locations in the name, but not the main university.

interestingly, i looked up texas (since i knew they had some like utep and utsa) and wisconsin (because i figured y'all did as well), but both of you list the main school as locations. i.e. university of texas at austin and university of wisconsin-madison.

carry on, i guess.
Yep, my degree says University of Wisconsin-Madison for sure, but in the state, it's simply known as UW.

UWM is Milwaukee, and there has been some talk of renaming that school to University of Milwaukee. Not sure that will happen.

There are a lot of UW-___ in Wisconsin, and there used to be a Wisconsin State system too, like California still has (Fresno, San Diego, San Jose, etc.)

I have no ill will for Bama, FYI. Nothing but respect.
U RAH RAH! WIS CON SIN!

I refer to Purdue as Purdon't whenever Wisconsin beats them.

Maybe it should be Purnever. I dunno.

Then there is hoops. Purdue is pretty good.

I attended an Aggie game many years ago.  My cousin was in school there at the time and I was new in Austin, so I drove the few hours to go to a game with him.  They were playing Oklahoma.  To my surprise, many of the chants and cheers had to do with Texas, sawing things off and such.  I couldn't help but think maybe if the crowd had put more effort into cheering against OU, the team on the field, maybe their Aggies would've picked up some juice by osmosis and played the Sooners better.  As it was, they got their ears beat in.  But hey....they got those horns sawed off!  Or whatever.  

Their cheerleaders were hairy and ugly as hell.  

A little later I wound up working in College Station for a while.  I already had a bizarre level of success with Texas (the state) ladies.....I left my time there pretty sure that the Aggie co-eds were clearly starved for men with testosterone, who weren't betas to their own dogs, getting run off their beds for the night if the dog wants it.

alabama (the state) has an alabama state system as well, but as far as i can tell it's a single university/campus.

I have no ill will for Bama, FYI. Nothing but respect. he said as he disrespects them
sure.

I've seen folks use "Purdon't" as well. I guess it's a slam?


MDT likes to use all sorts of derogatory terms for all of the various SEC teams. Barn, Clanga, etc. I'd call him an expert on the matter.
