NBC Writes Surprisingly Good ND Glossary

John Walters apparently hired a really good intern. I suspect that intern is probably is a Domer. And that Domer wrote a fairly complete Notre Dame Glossary. I love glossaries (glossari? sp?). They remind me of 2nd grade, when I used to look up terms like “Glossary.”
Anyway, read and enjoy. It’s 8 minutes of fun as you relive your time on campus. Ok, for me is was about 20 minutes of fun. I read really slowly, which, of course, caused me lots of trouble as I tried to cram for tests because I didn’t study earlier. I had a lot of Jedi Knight to play! Ok!? Gosh.

I’m trying to think of some terms the intern venerable John Walters missed. Feel free to add your own terms in the comments section.

Editor’s Note: I’m a moron. John Walters IS a Domer. I hate myself so much right now. The strkiethroughs above were added after realizing that I’m not smart. Again.

Umm, Acousticafe? The Graffiti Dance? JPW? ‘Za? ‘Rents?

I was impressed the Dillon Fight Song made it in. I still remember the words.

Oh, yeah, and how about Heartland, Corby’s, Bridget’s, and CJ’s? All clutch.

Also, how the hell did we miss lingerie night at the Backer?

I actually think he’s a Dillon guy as well, given all the Dillon stuff that made it into the article. Hell, Crackhead is in there!

That makes it twice as bad..Bad Kermit.

Q, remember the bikini contest at Heartland? Good times, Q. Good times.

Hmmm I don’t see any mention of 40s at 4…the late great Senior Bar…or LUNKERS? Man we must be getting old. I’d also like to change the title to UNDERGRAD Notre Dame Glossary.

Hey, now. Only grad students go to Legends. That place is lame.

How about ultimate frisbee..it rocks also!

I also think that we were the only dozen or so people who ever went to Lunker’s. And after Q went all, “I’m not going to bite into cows just to get my meat fix,” I was the only one who still wanted to go there. Explosive diarrhea be damned!

Kermit, those were 3 of the smokingest women I’ve ever seen wear a bikini. In South Bend. In February. In Heartland.

Kermit, after a Lunker Burger, explosive diarrhea would have been a blessing.

Actually not to beat a dead horse on this one but he also forgot to mention parietals. Can anyone else think of something that shapes an ND students life more than that!

I think he should have had a really long and awkward entry about Rape Road. That would have made for some good reading.

And for blogs, he mentioned ndnation and HouseThatRockBuilt, but no mention of bluegraysky.

And I remember the snowball fights devolving to everyone pelting Zahm, not Dillon.

“We’re Number 1″ Moses…or also known as First Down Moses. And what about Fair Catch Corby?

[…] SI on Campus has an excellent article, “Road Trip - Notre Dame“, which lists many don’t miss things to do while up in South Bend. Just like last week’s “Notre Dame Glossary” we at HLS are suckers for this nostalgic Domer stuff. And now for a “man this is gonna date me” observation, it appears Heartland has been renamed to the even lamer Club Fever. Man, I sure hope Fat Shirley’s has retained it’s name. […]
