Wasn't me challenging/commenting on the IU Grad thing, but he did say wearing pink is feminine (calling him out for not being masculine enough, also insinuating it is bad/lesser even telling him to "Go play in the WNBA with that foolishness". So, yeah i would say belittling & bullying. Then I was responding to someone who said it is fine since there are people out there that agree with him. So that is the standard, if someone else believes it, than it is fine. That can go a long way. Just a lot of ignorance out there, from coast to coast & this is from someone in the hear of it in the South, but from what i have seen on here the past year, plenty of same opinions still held in Indiana too.

Ok, if you really want to consider it “bullying” on a scale of 1-10 it was probably about a 1.5 or 2 and your reaction to it was about a 9 or 10.

What else could they feel about their teams if not angst?

One of my favorite T shirts was bought for me by my Daughter, who now curses me for her Bears, Sox, IU Basketball fandom. It simply says 2005 happened.

Not at all what I said, but it is how you twisted it, twice now. It was an igorant statement, but in the scheme of things, no I don't believe it was hurtful. As I said, I remember when there were similar posts on here about tats and dreads, and now I don't think anyone even thinks twice about that. How many kids do we have on our roster with tats or dreads now?

I don't believe what someone said on here about what would RMK have done about painted nails, is condemning a kid to being bullied or committing suicide. If you want to believe that, and tilt at every windmill that is an ignorant, misinformed or wrong statement, be my guest. When I said do you have a mirror it was because considering the source and not letting what others say affect your own temperament is a healthy practice and one you should consider.

Could we keep tats out of this. I always wanted a “Death Before Dishonor” special forces tat but opportunity has never met with a sufficient level of intoxication.

As a 19 year old Marine, one night in 1972 I sat in a tattoo shop in Jacksonville NC, outside of Camp Lejeune drunk on my ass. I was 4th in line as I watched 3 of my friends get their USMC Death Before Dishonor" tattoo. During that wait in line I sobered up enough to say "I've changed my mind".

I wonder if AlohaHoosier (who pretty much disappeared along with Archie) has a hula girl tar that are very popular with Navy vets.

I have a feeling tattoos are looked down upon by "the" AlohaHoosier.

I look down on them, told my son I would disown him if he ever got one.

Hope he gets a face tattoo.

I don’t like piercings or purple hair!

Well of course not. You’re not some dirty hippie.

I always think when I see a body covered with them ... "you are going to look really stupid in 50 years after they fade out but not all the way"

I actually admired how he stuck with Archie to the bitter ugly end but when I mentioned it he took it as an insult.
