Hoya Paranoia

   Trump Derangement Syndrome
     and Hoya Paranoia*

   Both reside in Washington D.C.
     both designed to annoy ya



   _______________________________
   *The Georgetown University basketball
     team's nickname is 'the Hoyas.' The 
     team is known for its 'annoying,' but 
     effective, full-court pressure defense.
     Other teams became paranoid about
     dribbling the ball against them. Hence,
     'Hoya Paranoia.'

John Read Date: 12/7/2024 7:26:00 AM Hi Gershon, hope I'm not annoying you, but can you save me a ticket to your comedy show. Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 12/7/2024 8:06:00 PM No annoyance, John. I've sat you behind a Pole, if that's ok... That's a Polish person (not a pole!). He's a little loud, but what the heck. It's better than my 'comedy!'

Michael Tor Date: 12/6/2024 12:26:00 PM Ha ha ha love your comparison to the two Gershon. You had me laughing on this one. I appreciate the explanation at the bottom. I had an idea of the Hoya Paranoia but your side note reinforced and educated me fully on the meaning. It was a wonderful comparison, thanks for the laughter my friend. Next I will be seeing you perform Stand up comedy. Can I get in half price for knowing you at the comedy club? lol.
