“Stupid ass” or not, think how many more pigs there’d be without the “fucking red necks.”

Well, it may be misguided and confusing, but it’s a pitting of Toby Keith. That’s all that matters. I hate him. I hate his music. I hate the truck he dri-iives.

And does anybody else think he sounds like he is saying “I’m a Ford truck man. That’s all I dry heave.”

More likely, he’s taking lessons from the pig.

Is there some sort of unwritten (or written) rule that says you must take mind-altering drugs before starting a thread in the pit?

What’s all this about Toby Keith running out in front of somebody’s car?

Why would anyone name a pig ‘Toby’?

He better start studying harder or he’s going to flunk the class.

He ran down his teacher and tried to blame it on some dude named Toby.

I like Toby Keith’s cds.

They’ve made excellent decorative beer coasters.

How I read the OP:

“I was somewhere around Toby’s house, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember saying something like ‘I feel a bit lightheaded; maybe I shouldn’t drive.’ Suddenly, there was a terrible roar all around me, and the ground was full with what looked like huge boars, all swooping and screeching and diving around the car, and a voice was screaming: ‘Holy Jesus! What are these goddamn animals?’”

With all due respect to the late Hunter S. Thompson, of course.

You people are heartless! Is no one concerned about the pig? I bet he had a little sow and piglets at home that have lost their loved one and around Christmas, too! Won’t someone think of the piglets?

TD, hope you’re not in too much pain.

Could be, now that you mention it. I’ve had two Fords, and that’s about the reaction I get from them anymore. Especially when Toby Keith is involved.
