As much as I love corn, I think a “balls”-themed board would’ve been classier.

“About these here balls”  
“Cecil’s big balls”  
“Da balls”  
“Real balls”  
“Knockin’ balls”  
“My balls are better than your balls”  
“Sweet, beautiful balls”  
“Playing with balls”  
“Reagan’s brass balls”  
“Pimpin’ balls”  
“Random balls in your face”  
“Ball buster”

Not only have they changed the forum titles, I have it on good authority that the mods have all given themselves the rank of kernel.

I realized that my days of being a cool cat was over the moment I fully embraced the dope. Now, I have more corn on my ball than a carnival snack. I surrender to the corn.
