    Guys who wear monocles tend to be German and living in the 19th through early 20th century.

    ahh, i haven't laughed like that at a thread title in a while. and as soon as i saw the title, i knew the correct answer.

    there's just a certain je ne sais quoi to rick that says monocle.


    rick: what'd i say?

    rafer: monocle.

    rick: what's it called?

    brooks: monocle!

    rick: that's right, monocle!

    *monocle* *monocle* *monocle*

    deke: i hear those things make you look awfully old.

    rick: not if you get them in silver or gold!

    yao: is there a chance the streak could end?

    rick: not on your life my chinese friend!

    bonzi: what about us walking blobs?

    rick: you'll be given exciting new jobs!

    tmac: how will you make your selection.

    rick: i'll get one with good depth perception!

    rick: i swear it's coach's only choice. throw up your hands and raise your voice.

    rockets: Monocle!

    rick: what's it called?

    rockets: Monocle!

    rick: once again.

    rockets: Monocle!

    hayes: but my shot is still all broken...

    landry: sorry chuck, clutchfans has spoken.

    rockets: Monocle! Monocle! Monocle!

    Yes! A Monocle

    ummm you can't have a monocle thread without the signature monocle spokesman himself. It's strict monocle law.

    It's fine..of course a monacle would make him look more distinguished. Just like Homer Simpson ;)

    You don't want people to draw the connection with Nazis again! He once sported a mustache like Hitler's and caused some controversy.

    Please do! That'd be quite nice. I'm just too tired to search right how; sleepiness just hit me HARD.
