This thread is for those who don't read regularly and encounter a repeated phrase that's clearly a BBS meme, and are curious about the meaning or origin -- like the infamous "Kicking the Can" meme by DaDakota, last year. Or "Our ceiling is through the roof" Josh Smith 2015. Post Explanation or Request a Meme Background: Either post a meme with explanation (ideally the originated thread/post which makes it the funnest as the reader can see it develop), or post a Request for an explanation. Most will either be from a BBS Poster (often a typo run wild like pr0n) or a quote from a Rockets/NBA player, MDA, Morey, etc. 2016-17 Examples: "I'm Serious" meme is from a quote by Patrick Beverley. BBS Source: http://bbs.clutchfans.net/index.php?threads/i-love-patrick-beverley-im-serious.280456 "We Know our Rights" is BJ Armstrong, Source: can't remember "Our ceiling is the Roof" is Michael Jordan talking to UNC fans. Apparently not knowing Josh had nearly the same quote. Source: MJ was at a UNC rally in the stadium. Josh was in interview, right? Ideally you'd post links to the actual first posts of these quotes made in the GARM/Dish "Sturdy Player" is the poster ABS (may he rest in peace). BBS Source: anyone want to post a link to the first usage of Sturdy by ABS? I suppose the thread will go back in time to discuss the Comedy Gold memes of lore. Bonus Points for cataloging 2016-17 memes, though.
I have the upmost respect for this thread. http://bbs.clutchfans.net/index.php?threads/patrick-beverely-upmost-disrespect.279528/
Yeshh! Get to work with the Source threads, guys, so ppl can read the First Beginnings....which are always fun light reading. Need a link to the thread with "upmost" in the title and the player who was quoted using it. Nike is your thread DonKnock....link ii. And huge bonus points for the 1st occurrence of "Yule-C"
I know it's from the hangout but I never understood the "My Life Starring Michael Keaton" thing (i know it's a movie).
Rockets are volatile from one season to another I think Mike can string together couple of good seasons, for now regular seasons Instant classic!
Why are there no videos of TMac passing? [EDIT] I know this is well before 16-17, but I got a lot laughs from this thread: http://bbs.clutchfans.net/index.php?threads/why-is-ther-no-videos-off-tracy-mcgradys-passing.172291/
