I think it's a bandana. Or she's in a coven.

It looks like they made their clothes from sofas.

True working women never buy anything, they just reuse old stuff.

I made a puppet out of an sofa and an old coat once...

YOU WERE FUNNIER WHEN YOU POSTED ABOUT MORE THAN SOCCER.

IT'S NOT SOCCER. It's...like...rugby or quidditch or football.

Sorry to harsh your mellow, man. I just came across that on one of the forums I go on (and with me being a soccer fan, some of these are inevitably soccer forums) and while I considered not posting it on account of me perhaps posting too much on the soccer front (having indeed agreed with myself that I would halt the soccer related postings unless directly prompted), I thought that the actual joke in the picture would override the fact that it was taken at a soccer match. I'm sorry I made you feel colon closed bracket about it anyway.

Don't take Chrono's opinions too seriously. Or anyone's really.

But especially Chrono's.

Hey, it's you Brits fault that we have so many different games called "football" in the first place. Actually it's the fault of medieval princes who called any sort of game played by common people that involved a ball "football", in order to differentiate it from proper games played on horseback.

I, ntw3001, accept responsibility on behalf of my countrymen.

by **MysticalDescent** » Tue Feb 24, 2009 4:30 pm

I can call it soccer, it was a term coined in this country as a short way of saying Association Football. I suppose if you pronounced 'association' phonetically then that almost works, but whatever. Victorians, huh? When you consider the number of games actually called football (I can think of Association Football, Rugby Football and Gridiron off the top of my head), it's relatively practical. Association Football has the most use of foot against ball. I reserve the right to complain about Americans using the word 'soccer' though.

Well it's a good thing that when people developed the old crude game of "stickball" into more formal sports with set rules and stuff that they picked new names, such as "baseball" and "cricket". Imagine how much more fun we'd be having if we "American Stickball" versus "British Stickball".

by **Clueless** » Tue Feb 24, 2009 5:25 pm

When I hear "Stickball" I think of some sort of game with an EXTREMELY sticky ball...

And the problem is that in both those games, you consistently have somebody who throws the ball to someone else, who tries to hit it past fielders with a lump of wood. THEN WHAT WOULD WE DO?

by **chrismachine** » Tue Feb 24, 2009 6:03 pm

well, talk about being able to hit the ball backwards, bounce a pitch (bowl), and use a flat wooden hitting device, for starters.

Pah, I'm well aware of that. Nonetheless, there's no real reason to use it besides as an anachronism. YOUR WORD HAS BEEN SUPERSEDED
