That was fun. Been a while since I've seen one. Thanks for the heads up Jefferyson.    :new_year:
Why not just 1 pain free day?

It was fun. I came on the forum to a pm. I didn't know what was going on until I finally read somebody wrote Yooper night. I managed to put it together when I saw that. I'll probably not remember the next time I see it
I believe in the hereafter, because every time I take two steps into the tool crib to get something I wonder " what did I come in here after"

If nothing else I'm always a good last resort or the guy to hold up as a bad example

Some people love it, especially those that know what is going on because they have been through it. I guess its a little bit dark, because a lot of the the fun is to see who melts down. :D    I had a message this morning asking about the "slang"   I replied with the post text that Shotgun put in the knowledge base so many years ago about what Yooper Night was. I got a reply back that it was "ghetto".  Yooper night also gives us great insight in personalities we might not have noticed. Hostility is a favorite to find out about.  :D   Most take it though as it is meant, harmless fun.

Good to see you back, Steve!!! I saw my first one just after I joined and assumed it was normal, couldn't see what the fuss was about. :D A few guys got their shorts in a knot though, I wonder if they ever learned to lighten up.

   If people from the UP are Yoopers are people from the LP Loopers? Just asking. ;)

I used a lot of it when I was in the Air Force, and probably still have a can of it in one of the cabinets here now!

Ian,
Thanks for the link to kiwi slang.My wife and I watch a series called "Brokenwood",sometimes we have to use the sub-titles to catch everything. ;D Brokenwood is a fictitious town in NZ,worth a look for those of you who like detective series.
