Do ya know what a 'cougar' is?

You're at a bar and your buddy says, "Cougar....look at that cougar"

Do you know what he's talking about?


Reason why I ask: I saw some old buddies in SF this weekend, when I used the term 'cougar' all but one had no idea wtf I was talking about. It kind of threw me off, I thought this slang was common knowledge.

Let me see here ...

There's the obvious cat:


Then there's the car, made by Mercury:


Or the airplane, made by Grumman:


Or the chewin' tabackie:


Seems like there's a couple of schools that use the cougar -- CSU:



None of which make any real sense to see in a bar. So yeah, I'd be surprised if a buddy said "Hey, cougar" in a bar.

my boss didn't know what lactating meant.
he is in the mid 40's with two kids.

I bet him 20 bucks that a guy we were working with would know (he had kids too)
We have yet to ask though.

Coooogers! I've been freggin' lovin' 'em as of late. Keep those divorces going people, young men all over the country are reapin' the benefits of "hangin'" with hot 30-something year old cougars and MILFs.

I know, I know, I am an *********.

Well, yes. When I was a real youngin' and very un-married, the best ones were found in the legal profession. Talk about pent-up kittens.

You know those stories about the pool boy and the lonely housewife? Well, the same is true for the courier and legal secretary.

There's also those silver-and-black helmeted guys who lost the most pathetic college football game I have ever seen, against Colorado two weekends ago. Cougs got about 400 yards, held Colorado to something like 110 yards total, and LOST!

Well if you want a cougar who "sucks," Pullman is definitely the place to go.
