Greek Phallic Disco Golf Balls: A Free Association Game

Continue the game in comments by free associating with other nerdfighters! Oh, and you really CAN get great nerdfighter merch at www.dftba.com, although there are alas no disco golf balls. (....yet.) And don't forget to prepare for the PROJECT FOR AWESOME: projectforawesome.com
In which John and Hank play a silly game of word association instead of making a real video. Thank you for all your kind messages of sympathy regarding the loss of our grandfather. Regularly scheduled, better-edited programming will return after the project for awesome.

I'm watching this video in 2020 as a listener to the pod and just realized that Uncle Mike, famously a man of few words makes a cameo.

[@vickyceledon1215]

I was thinking the same thing!!! It’s THE Uncle Mike!!!

[@malconley9928]

Oh wow. There is a reason that Hank free-associated "basket weaving" with "underwater". At the summer camp that Hank used to attend, and I have been going to for eleven years, "underwater basket weaving" is a code word among the counselors, referring not to a class, but to a secret project to be kept from the campers. Analysis of Hank's subconscious, whoo!

When you said Mountain Brook, I thought, "Hey, Mountain Brook must be a common rich people place name because there's a rich people Mountain Brook around where I live." But then I remembered that you guys are from Alabama, which is where I live, so it might be the same Mountain Brook, and I'm vaguely excited about that. If there's a less intense version of fangirling, then I'm doing that. I would be more excited, but I feel that'd be a tad creepy if a 15 year old boy got super excited about two grown men having been nearby 3 years ago. So I'm subduing my fangirling. I'm FanLassing. LET'S MAKE THAT A THING! If you're excited for a thing but don't want to come off as too intense, or are just legitimately only mildly excited for a thing, you're a fanlass.

I think they probably were in the same Mountain Brook. I live near there also and I can confirm, it is where all of the rich people live.

[@maggiemat13]

Im from birmingham and i thought of this too and got so excited??

[@crstph]

why is no one talking about the fact that the first thing that came to Hank's mind when he heard the word "princess" is "Catherine"?

[@KennaBeamer]

Oh I thought it was his wife
