We're a Julius Randle buzzer beater from being 3-3 vs Johnny Jones even though we've had 10x as much talent. What does that say about us?
From their board on the link....

Have an upvote for arguably being the 1st person ever to use the word "lugubrious" in a thread title.

Just posted about this on another thread.
The only fans that overreact more than LSU football fans are Kentucky basketball fans.

Word of the day is "lu-gu'-bri-ous." Do not be "lugubrious" when writing to "The Factor."

My New Rule
harlanhomeboy, Today at 8:34 AM
"At least for the month of January, I am implementing a new anger management technique that worked really well last night for this team at this current state in the season. Once the Cats get down double digits on the road Im turning the game off and watching something else (last night my wife and i started watching Making a Murderer....fascinating stuff). I will check in periodically to see if anything has really changed and warrants to flip back over. We actually flipped over once when we cut it 4 in the 2nd half, but immediately in less than a minute it was back up to 9 so we flipped it back to Netflix.
Needless to say, I avoided game rage and went to bed way more calm than if I had watched the 2nd half of the game. This team just does not have the ability right now to come all the way back from double digits on the road at this point and until they turn the corner (hopefully they will like 2011 and 2014) I'm saving myself the anger when they're down more than 10 on the road in any game. We all had that OSU/UCLA feeling at halftime so I saved myself from high blood pressure the rest of the way."
LOL, i have a few LSU friends who use this tactic.

lugubrious

Funerals are lugubrious. So are rainy days and Mondays. Anything that makes you sad, gloomy, or mournful can be called lugubrious.
Lugubrious comes from the Latin verb lugere, "to mourn." You can also listen to the sound of the word: lugubrious sounds slow, heavy, and sad. Sometimes, just the "feel" of a word is enough to clue you in to its meaning, and lugubrious is one of those words. I was feeling great when I got to the concert, but the lugubrious music left me in a terrible mood.*
*kinda like the rant?

Just so you know, utilizing terms that no one has a clue what it means does not make others less intelligent than you...it makes you look like a fool.

Lugubrious is a good word I'm glad to have learned it today - thanks OP
Another good word that I like, but can't ever work into conversation ever, is erinaceous - like or related to a hedgehog.
