Wow. I work with a Bruce.

An actual limp-wristed, lisping, mincing queen of a Bruce. This guy looks like he steppped out of about 1973. Male pattern baldness, overcompensating beard, the full-on flaming stereotype.

I had no idea there were any Bruces left in the wild. I feel like Jane Goodall, except not as butch.

I guess it’s a valid stereotype. As soon as I saw the name that’s what I thought. I guess that would be judging a book by it’s title. I really try not to do that.

I saw the OP and thought that you worked with the professors at the University Of Wallamaloo School Of Philosophy.

Oh Lord, we beseech Thee…

Amen!

ETA: Crack a tube!

:smack:

What does it say when I admit that the first thing I thought of was Batman?

What’s a Bruce?

Say, do you think this limp-wristed Bruce that Otto works with could win a fight against Batman if he was prepared enough?

Emmanuel Kant was a real pissant who was very rarely stable…

I actually have a cousin named Bruce, a limp-wristed mincing sweetheart of a hairdresser. Talk about stereotypes! I love him to death, he’s wonderful.

I need help on this one too. I have no idea what is being referred to here.

I thought of Springsteen. But there is only ONE Bruce Springsteen, so I knew that couldn’t be it.

Heidegger Heidegger was a boozy beggar who could drink you under the table

And no one works WITH Bruce Springsteen. They work FOR him.

What about Chuck Norris?

Chuck Norris works alone. Always.

Woolloomooloo (though the actual university is mythical, the place is not).

David Hume could out-consume Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel

If I’m not being whooshed, Bruce is a long-time stereotypical name for a gay guy. And the OP works with one, a flamboyantly gay guy named Bruce. That’s it.

Interesting. I’ve never heard that before.

You’re all spelling it wrong!!! It’s Brucetthhh!
