My god, that's a big fucking beast!

Looks like the refs blew another call big time on this one--I'd have thought shooting another player with an arrow would at least rate 15 yards for unsportsmanlike conduct.

You lived next door to an elk?

A good meal for Nate " the Kitchen" Newton or William " The Fridge" Perry.

I'm not at all against hunting (or eating the tasty meat of what other people kill) ... but it's a bit unsporting to refer to killing another living being as "tagging" it, isn't it? I mean, c'mon -- "tagging it" was what we did to college girls in the late 80s.

I thought "tagging" was what you did to endangered species to follow their migration habits.

Tagging it also what you have to do after you have shot it. Most states make you tag it. I don't know how you could call that unsporting.

I don't know how you could call that unsporting. I think it's because "tagging" comes off as a euphamism for "killing" for those not in the know.

I like "harvesting."

I think it's because "tagging" comes off as a euphamism for "killing" for those not in the know. Maybe I'm not in the know. But what I do KNOW is, you have to kill it before you can tag it. And if I'm hungry, I'm gonna tag it!

I'm gonna harvest that sonofabitch who's been sleeping with my wife.

If you're going to talk about hunting you should at least know somthing about it. Tagging is not a euphamism for "Killing", you desk bound geeks. When you get drawn (in most states there is a lottery for permits because there more hunters than available animals) for an elk or deer permit you are issued a tag. It is uaually a plastic card (with the tag number imprinted on it)attached to a "one time" click shut lanyard. This tag must be placed on the animal you kill, usually thru a hole pierced in the ear. Thus the term tagging. duh!

AMENNNN JW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Here in Kansas, we can buy deer tags over the counter. We have so many deer and I'm talking grain fed monsters. You can get up to five tags. Oh and by the way, when I'm playin paintball and I shoot ya, you just got tagged by the Hoser. Have a nice day.

Dear JW123, Thanks for the information. Now go fuck yourself. Love, wfrazerjr

Or am I overreacting again? Oh and by the way, when I'm playin paintball and I shoot ya, you just got tagged by the Hoser. So, in other words, "tagged" refers to the act of being shot, not the tags you would purchase, since I'm assuming you aren't purchasing paintball tags. Which is what I said in the first place.

So lemme guess, "harvesting," with regards to hunting, has some other technical meaning for you bloody Kansans?
posted by Hugh Janus at 03:57 PM on January 18, 2006
Good god. Hunting takes place all over the world, and guess what, it's got a lot of variation, including in its terminology. Just because you're Big Buck Man doesn't mean you own the words.

Somebody tag John Brown's body. Then cut his throat and string him upside down from your basketball hoop, like my parents' neighbor does.

HMMMMM. lil-brown, I don't think I said anything about owning anything did I ol buddy??

Hey, yerfatma, don't you think it might just fall apart after all that a-mould'ring in the grave?

But his soul will go marching on. Or hang off a basketball hoop. Whatever.

Thats a lot of meat. Here in Jackson Hole, Wyoming we have a lot of elk. Ive seen some big ones. Nothing like that big bastard there though. Yummy.
