    So that's how it happens. I thought I was getting old when I had to look up 'based' on urban dictionary.

    Thank god for that website, I can't imagine being an aging millennial in 1980 with all the kids talking about "radical" this and "cowabunga" that and not have anything to look up.

    "Cowabunga" shouldn't have been a mystery to them, at least, because it originates from Howdy Doody in 1949.

    I'm curious, how recently did you have to look it up? For me it feels ancient compared to the likes of "rizz" but that's probably due to the circles I've been in.

    Ironic that pronouncing a single letter is more cumbersome than the full word.

    "Every single other letter is one syllable, can we just pronounce this one 'wuh'"?

    "No, it must have THREE!"

    So this is why Golden State Warriors are called "Dubs"! Today I learned.

    The nickname comes from people shortening Warriors to the letter W. The shorter form of the letter W is pronounced "Dub." It also helps that W represents the word "win" in the world of sports, so when their fans refer to them as the Dubs, they are also referring to the team as winners.

    Hey! I’ve been invited to sports before. Some people think that me being large, tough, and angry would make me good at roller derby, unfortunately I’m also uncoordinated even when sober
