A) Toss a NSFW in there, please.
B) tFlagship is a nickname for the University of Arkansas posters on tRant. Around the height of tFlagship's days, late in the Bobby Petrino era, Arkansas fans took a liking to referring to themselves as "the flagship of the SEC" and "the beacon of the SEC." For whatever reason, the nickname stuck. See cheshire's post and memphisplaya's correspondence for further discussion.
C) tLandmass is the state of Mississippi. Before Hurricane Isaac made landfall near Cocodrie (I believe) in 2012, forecasting models had the storm making landfall on the Mississippi Coast. In an interview, a Weather Channel anchor famously stated that "the storm may make landfall on the landmass between Alabama and Louisiana," or New Orleans and Mobile, or something like that. Nevertheless, the nickname was born.
