to describe your team/school/fanbase?
Example: Missouri - Misery

Which ones have been accepted or embraced?
Which ones get you a little rustled?
Example: Do South Carolina fans consider USCe demeaning or descriptive?

Aubarn
Awbarn
Allbarn
Awbrin
Awbrun
West Georgia

"The Barn" has been pretty well picked up. The rest are just silly and make the user look ridiculous.

I don't know but most are terrible. The basics, gumps, TU, corndogs, etc., are fine.

Doing it in every reference is obnoxious. "NO WAY AUBARN WINS THE SEC, $CAM NEWTON IS GONE AND SO IS CHEEZNIK"

Barners
Cow College

And some of the lower end mouth breathing bama fans like to use the term Boogs.


Honestly, being called a Barner or saying Auburn is a cow college don't really bother me.

Dwags is good. Then there's these:

thUGA: Disparaging, annoying, good bit of rustle-tude to it
UGAy: Pisses me off beyond measure. Not because "LOL THEY CALLED US GAY" but because it's the insult I heard back in 5th grade but there are grown arse shite bricks who still say it. They embarrass themselves and Georgia deserves better insults than UGAy LOLOLOL. Twats.
UGAg: ""
U(sic)GA: Well, it's limited to Tech fans and it's kinda stupid but it's more creative than the previous 2.
Leghumpers, poodles, mutts: Hell, as long as they know we aren't actually canines I am ok with it.

We're an Ag school is my best guess. Or a play on the pronunciation of Auburn as "Awbarn"

See, I never really saw the insult with this. I guess the ag connection but idk, I never think of barner as something bad. Maybe it's just me. I know others use it in a disparaging way but still.

Aggy

I REALLY don't get this one. I say it and it'll sometimes rustle A&M fans but I just figured it was a slang way of saying Aggie. Cause that extra -ie is too much sometimes, ya know?
