I feel for Rick Perry. I really do. I've had the occasional "senior moment" and I thought he handled it well, with grace. But the MSM will pile on. In skimming the threads and stories about the incident, I was surprised that there were NO Aggie jokes..
The university out on the South Plains is as conservative.
Just friendly Aggie jokes. No harm intended. It is a great school, as are others in the state.
What do fellow employees call an Aggie?
“Boss”
That is a response from an Aggie I know well.
hey take it easy on Aggies, they are men out-standing in their fields.
I know someone who followed his Ph.D. adviser to A&M to get his nuclear engineering degree. You know the place has to be good if Northeast liberals will go and live there for a year to be part of it.
All in good fun, but keep in mind that you’re mocking the most military-friendly public university in the country.
P.S. I saw your clarifications. This was meant as a general comment to all of the posters.
Grammar gaffe while mocking the intellect of Aggie graduates. Ouch....
Aggie jokes are repackaged ethnic jokes. Just as funny when you substitute “Jew”, “Pole”, “Mick”, or whatever.
I would do much worse than Perry if I was on that stage. I can't remember where I put my cell phone half the time.
Now that, I can identify with. :-)
