Hark!

Most of us have. It has been awhile, after all.

The KKK was founded in the state of Tennessee.
As a fraternal organization that N.B. Forrest soon disavowed.
"The first Klan was founded in Pulaski, Tennessee, sometime between December 1865 and August 1866 by six former members of the Confederate army[23] as a fraternal social club inspired at least in part by the then largely defunct Sons of Malta, from which parts of the initiation ceremony were borrowed, with the same purpose: "ludicrous initiations, the baffling of public curiosity, and the amusement for members were the only objects of the Klan."[24] The name is probably derived from the Greek word kuklos (??????) which means circle;[25] the word had previously been used for other fraternal organizations in the South such as Kuklos Adelphon. The manual of rituals was printed by Laps D. McCord of Pulaski.[26]
According to The Cyclopædia of Fraternities (1907) "Beginning in April, 1867, there was a gradual transformation ... The members had conjured up a veritable Frankenstein. They had played with an engine of power and mystery, though organized on entirely innocent lines, and found themselves overcome by a belief that something must lie behind it all—that there was, after all, a serious purpose, a work for the Klan to do."[24]
Although there was little organizational structure above the local level, similar groups rose across the South and adopted the same name and methods.[27] Klan groups spread throughout the South as an insurgent movement during the Reconstruction era in the United States. For example, Confederate veteran John W. Morton founded a chapter in Nashville, Tennessee.[28] As a secret vigilante group, the Klan targeted freedmen and their allies; it sought to restore white supremacy by threats and violence, including murder, against black and white Republicans. In 1870 and 1871, the federal government passed the Enforcement Acts, which were successfully enforced in prosecuting and suppressing Klan crimes.[29]" - wiki
The things you learn, huh?
A guy in the Marines told me many years ago that the name comes from the sound made when you cock a musket: KU KLUX.

Of course I do.
What is the root cognate? 'gyn.'
A misogynist is a person who hates or doesn't trust women. Misogynist is from Greek misogyns, from the prefix miso- "hatred" plus "gyn "a woman." The English suffix -ist means "person who does something."
See what I did there?

Number 4 is a pretty damn compelling argument, I have to admit.

If this was posted before, it was dumb then and it's dumb now.
1. Tennessee elected Algore.
2. Yeah, but you guys had Buford Puss.... well, ok, I'll give you this one.
3. No, but you regularly get run off the field by Alabama.
4. Actually, Auburn is in West Georgia. ESPN says so.
5. It could be argued that Dreamland barely cracks the top 5 for BBQ in Alabama. Both states are great for BBQ.
6. You hired Derek Dooley.
7. You hired Butch Jones. "Oh, but that is a GREAT hire!" Come see me when he cracks a winning percentage in conference play.
8. Not sure how this relates to football, but OK.
9. Neyland Stadium - the Erector Set Stadium of the SEC, complete with 14" seats and nine garbage collectors for every visiting team's fan. Just look for the people wearing orange.
10. See, you have no sense of history.
I am literally praying that you guys run the table and make it to Atlanta for the SEC championship game. The opportunity to provide TWO beatdowns to Tennessee in one season is a rare opportunity.

1. We never elected George Wallace.
2. Bull Connor was never police chief of a major Tennessee city.
3. We didn't have to get run off our home field by USC to understand that integration was a good thing.
4. Auburn is in Alabama.
5. Dreamland wishes it could compete with Interstate Bar B Q.
6. We never hired Mike Dubose.
7. We never hired Dennis Franchione.
8. We acknowledge the Civil War is over.
9. Legion Field-The Rust Capitol of the South.
10. Last but not least, we have long since come to grips with General Neyland's passing.
