I want to see him imposed on the davinci diagram. He'd throw it all out of whack.

Hopefully your girlfriend didn't notice your severely lacking in the length department when you stood next to Bruno

This thread has delivered in almost every way possible.

Come to think of it, VanDamme hasn't chimed in since that epic plot twist. I haven't been this engaged with a Raptors story since Emma's fan fiction with Bargnani :lol:

I'd feel so inadequate standing next to a guy with an arm the same size as my whole winspan.

EDIT: Talking about my wingspan. Tiger7 looks like he's got an above average wingspan.

Asking for a friend. Sorry, tiger.

Impressive how Bruno has stratified his clothing to line up with the near walk, the road, the far walk, and the buildings across the street. He's a virtual chameleon.

Using a very scientific means of comparison, Bruno's arm is far longer than Tiger7's leg.

This is Stretch Tiger7

If tiger7 really wanted to impress that beauty, and the Persian rug princess, he should have wore the leather jacket with the 8 ball on it. I am disappoint.

They refer to themselves as Persians a lot of the time. At least that's my experience, maybe in Canada it's different?

I've heard people refer to themselves as Persian in Canada. I think they don't like to say Iranian, used to have negative connotations.

This is the first time that I've ever heard that the word "Iranian" has negative connotations. It was basically "Persian" in the Western world and "Iranian" in the Eastern, "Persia" in the Western world and "Iran" in the Eastern etc. until the Shah, IIRC, requested the World to refer its country as "Iran" and not "Persia." "Persia" is a Greek word and "Iran" is an Iranian one.

#craziest date ever. Went out with this nice guy who previously ran the Scott Wolf/Bailey Salinger Party of 5 fan club. Great guy.


Persian Princess ‏@nocarpet 5 hours ago
#startedawesome. He was cold all the time and I asked him if he wanted me to keep him warm but he said it was fine and just put on another sweater over top of the one he already was wearing.


Persian Princess ‏@nocarpet 5 hours ago
#greatdinnerbut we left and saw this tree of a man just standing there smiling to nobody in particular. I thought it was a street busker but it turns out it's some famous basketball guy.


Persian Princess ‏@nocarpet 5 hours ago
My date asked me to take a pic of him so I did. Immediately after the flash went off the player said, "Icebelly out" and raised his hands up high in the air, grabbing onto a nearby condo balcony. He struggled to pull himself up but did and was gone #doeshelivethere


Persian Princess ‏@nocarpet 5 hours ago
I told my date, "That was crazy." He said, "I could do it faster. I've been lifting for 17 years." I asked him to show me his muscles and he said it was too cold and put on another sweater. #howmanysweatersdoeshehave


Persian Princess ‏@nocarpet 5 hours ago
#awkward silence. I got in a cab and went home and told my little brother, VanDamme, who loves the Raptors, if he'd heard of this Bruno guy. Turns out he's pretty famous


Persian Princess ‏@nocarpet 5 hours ago
#stillhopehecallsback but #craziestdateeva


:lol: :lol: Good work, I believed it up until "Icebelly out"
Ajinca fits the Raptors' mold as a skilled player from Europe, but has never shown any signs of succeeding at the NBA level

If I'm not mistaken, this was done at the urging of Germany and the Nazis, as "Iran" translates to "The land of the Aryan". Germans and Iranians were often close allies until very recently. The Nazis made all Iranians immune to Nuremberg Laws as they regarded them as Aryans.
