I really like "QuasiSuck" and "UltraSuck" as categories. I'm totally stealing the SuckScale from you. I don't know when I'll use it, but I'll use it.

Lookin' good. You'll be happy.

10" sub = music only

12" sub - Music/HT

I have found 10" subs lack the air movement needed for a good HT experience. A 10" sub is of course better than no sub but for me, a 12" sub just works that much better. You get deeper lower LFE which is what you want for HT. A 12" sub loses nothing for music and you get all the gains of the lower end play back \:\) .

Likewise, much amused by "quasiSuck" and "ultraSuck" terms. Will be adding those to my vocabulary, if for no other reason than to appear cool with the younger folk.

let's not forget Homer's profound observational skills using the word suck.

"They just plain sucked! I've seen teams suck before, but they were the suckiest bunch of sucks that ever sucked!"

Ah... all right, let me dig this up from the ol' memory banks.
There was a chant we used to use at the Cal Hockey games,went something like this:

Hey Goalie (usually)! Your mom called! She said you suck! (1st time) Suuuuuck! Suuuuuck!
...She said you're a vacuum cleaner! (2nd time) Vaaaaaaaaacuuuum cleaner! Vaaaaaaacuuum cleaner!
... something something
...something something
...She said you're a black hole! Blaaaaaack hole! Blaaaaack hole!


Yeah, Cal fans are nasty bastards.

... suck
... vacuum

... black hole

'sieve' just sounded dumb to me.

It didn't go with the rest...


But let's face it. The whole thing was stupid!

Well, Hockey in California is kind of a stretch altogether.

Still, when we were at Cal, our hockey team was pretty highly ranked, at least in the Pac-10. Not quite as good as our rugby team... but way better than basketball and football.
