Massholes?
 

OK, I did a search for "Masshole" and of course it yielded a boat load of threads as I'd expected as I see this term all over the Asylum. So, what's a Masshole? I'm assuming a bunch of members from Massachusetts?

Re: Massholes?
 

You are correct, sir... and while they can be a cantankerous and mischievious lot, theirs hearts are usually in the right place.

Re: Massholes?
 

A great group from MA

Re: Massholes?
 

*is googling cantankerous*

Re: Massholes?
 

We've also adopted a bunch of people who fit the profile with the exception of their geographic location.

Re: Massholes?
 

Thank you gentlemen.

Re: Massholes?
 

Oh sure... don't thank the girl. ;)

Be wary of Massholes (real or adopted), they're nuttier than most.

For Bao:
cantankerous

adjective
1. stubbornly obstructive and unwilling to cooperate
2. having a difficult and contrary disposition

Re: Massholes?

Re: Massholes?

Re: Massholes?
 

So just out of curiosity, how does the entry process work to one of these groups? Do you just get claimed or do you get invited and then decide which side to favor! Oh man, this is hilarious!

Re: Massholes?
