Anything with power over you. Your boss, the govt, the police.
He is like Uncle Sammin being a kind of metaphor. A symbolic, faceless, Smoking Man who controls you, keeps you in your place and can screw you over if you don't.

"The Man" may off me for revealing his identity, but Bea Arthur hold the title.

Damn, should have posted this anonomously.

"The Man" -

-likes rainy days
-long walks on the beach at night
-the smell of lilac scented bathroom towels

 

[Injury]

Scapegoat for problems of people who screw themselves over too much to admit that they've fscked up in life.


If you have no money, a crappy job and not a posession to your name, it's not because you're a high school dropout who spent all of your money on weed and beer, it's because of "the man."

I shanked my driver shot on hole one the other day. At least now I know it isn't me who sucks as much as it is the man damning me to failure.

I'm the man.
I'm so bad, I should be in detention.

 

[PingSpike]

If you aren't on welfare and/or selling drugs, you are the man.

But there are no hard and fast rules.

Quoted for the mods. Your name-calling is going to get you banned, hopefully sooner than later.

Yea thats why there was a laugh icon on the end :roll:

Are you losing it? If anything I've done the least name-calling out of you and your buddies and I haven't complained to the mods once.

"Me and my buddies"? Who would that be? You're the only one I've seen flinging names around. Bully for you, not complaining to the mods. Aren't you the tuff guy. :roll:

Is being called a pig really that painfull? Is your skin really that thin? I would recomend a big dose of unsheltered reality to cure that foryou.

LOL do we really have to go through this again?

Almost every thread I post in some redneck busts out with "gay, masturbating commie". Do you see me whining to the mods or caring?

How many laugh icons do I have to put in for you to not take my statement seriously?

Once again, you're blaming me for dishing out the abuse you attract, despite the fact that I have never responded to you in such a manner. Other people's bad behavior doesn't justify your own.

A laugh icon doesn't cancel out the fact that you were calling people 'pigs', and it's not hardly the first time, is it? Your posts are fast becoming recognizable for content. Or lack of same.

Is that an Anthrax reference or am I totally off base?

I'm not sure who 'The Man' is but i'm thinking he is probably related to Tha Man and Da Man. Teh Man is at best a distant cousin.
