"Mats, did you eat your chunky sooooooooooop?"

I've been scouring the net for that one, I can't find it anywhere.

I remember saying this all the time on the playground

I can't believe that the Sam "Freaking" Bennett thread has turned into the "Terrible Hockey Commercials I Remember" thread. Sigh....

Enough with the terrible nicknames. Benzo sounds like camp stove fuel and Mono sounds like a disease. Sam works just fine but Benny is OK if you must.

If the mods can change Cali's name, they can make Benzo a swear, much like d sutter minus the S.

Here's an interesting article on early beat writers burning out on speed thinking they found freedom.

If we're talking about drugs, it's actually a commonly used term to refer to the class of benzodiazipine drugs like Valium, Xanax, Ativan, Rohypnol, etc.

We talk about Benzo's in my job often

Sorry to derail this thread, but could someone please explain to me why they changed Cali's name? Thanks

Sure, I can.

After a particularly awful game by the Flames, I started a post-game thread and sarcastically said I didn't want to be a Flames fan anymore, and jokingly asked the mods to change my name to Cali Panthers Fan instead. I honestly didn't think it would happen, but one of the mods thought it would be funny to do so.

I'd gladly have it changed back, but it seems to be a running joke now on the boards, so I imagine it will stick for a while.

He jumped off the bandwagon after (IIRC) the loss to the Oilers, and asked to have "Flames" taken out of his username.

I think the consensus opinion on CP is that he should not be allowed to change it back, and must wear "Panthers" as a mark of shame forever (even though he does follow the Panthers as a 2nd team).

Edit: ^Yeah, what he said^
