Since people pouted about pizza talk, I'll go off track with a topic we never cover. I do not remember this exchange from da bum, but my God imb.

Hahahahahahah!

 

i was agreeing with you. i remember the heated arguments i had with my friends when we were playing pick up games. "I get to be heupel!" "I get to be brees!" "No I want to be brees!" "NO IM BREES!"

 

you couldn't go anywhere without hearing the question pop up, "who do you like better, brees or heupel?" it's a question that very nearly tore this nation asunder

Him taking that seriously is peak Bum. My god he's dense.

[Sammy Sofa]

Haha did I miss this?

 

Oh man, it was one of my favorite Bum moments. I just found it, but I'm ashamed that I've been getting it wrong all these years...he called them "equality rallies!"

It is, of course, in a thread about the Budweiser House.

 

We (mostly me) have had had fun with it over the years:

oh my god that whole conversation hahahahahahahahhaahahhahahahahahahah

 

I completely forgot about the whole thing with him and Ernie Banks. Oh my god, da Bum was such a treasure.

hahahahaha man that was the best era of nsbb

[UMFan83]

Wow I had never seen that exchange and now I'm mad I missed 9 years of remembering it fondly.

the small pillow gifts is my favorite bum anecdote, even more than pelosi

Link that horsefeathers, son.

i can't find the original reference, maybe it got deleted in the hack or something. It was when bum told us he was Ba'Hai and discussed how they didn't do christmas, his family would just leave him a small gift each day on his pillow every day for 12 days or something. it was insane even though the religion sounds kinda cool tbh

So many underrated parts to that page, including 12-year-old Laurens going "you dont know what its like to see your kids' happy faces come down the stairs on christmas. Also neither do i because im 12"

[David]

i vaguely remember thinking he got way too much crap for that.

 

maybe it's because i grew up with a lot of jewish and indian/hindu kids who didn't celebrate christmas at all.

[David]

definitely. the piniella era was the golden age of nsbb.

it was more just the way he was being so Bum about it. Woah Bum, there are kids out there of other religions? Get outta here.

horsefeathers, it's not even that; it's him and Ski basically bragging about how they're a couple of ogres who love [expletive] all over kids who believe in Santa Claus.

[javy knows my name]

"They'll be fine, they'll still have small gift-giving from your parents half week" remains the best thing ever posted here

They wrapped themselves in this cloak of “I’d never lie to MY kids” which is so insanely naive, even for blockheads like Da Bum

[David]

i will absolutely lie to my kids about many things

[Sammy Sofa]

"Trust me, I'd be doing them a big favor by crushing their childhood fun!"

 

Maybe he was just bitter after his own dreams were crushed and he discovered that nacho cheese dispensers don't actually create nacho cheese.

I really wish that NSBB archive wasn’t such a visual dumpster fire

uh it's just nsbb?

my daughter is almost old enough that the lying can commence

[Banedon]

My own amusement is primary among the reasons for lying to my son.

Guessing he's like me and using a different theme here than what the default is in the archive.

[Sammy Sofa]

Let's remember the good times. The nacho cheese times:
