Nika the Gnat

[Bama fan]

During an interview Monday she was asked about the tournament and she said she was learning how important it is. Interviewer asked her about EW, and Nika had nothing but nice things to say. Then they told her E said that Nika was like a gnat on defense. Nika asks "gnat, what is a gnat?" She starts laughing when the interviewer tells her it is a bug, like a fly! I think she liked it . So our prior posts are spot on!

“What’s a gnat?” So she’s not an Entomology major. Opted for Phys Ed?

​

You pan fried gnat's? The first is Croatian and the second one is German for gnat.

 

[LoboDays]

Dubrovnik is in Croatia. Most people deep fry them, I know.

You know English is her second language and that she’s from Croatia, right? No need to be insulting

I know where she is from. Lighten up. I’m Irish. Tomorrow is St Patty’s day. Am I to consider all the incoming jokes about drunken Irishmen insulting....or jest?

There is an insect called the scorpionfly that steals dead insects from spider webs. Just a little bit of entomology for the BY.

Norton (working on a crossword puzzle): "What's a three-letter word for 'insect?'"
Ralph: "Nat."
Alice: "The word you're looking for, Ed, is 'ant'. Gnat is spelled with a "G."
Ralph (emphatically): "It's 'Nat', N-A-T."
Ed: "I gotta go along with Ralph on this one, Alice. Guy I work with in the sewer, Nat Greenbaum, he doesn't spell his name with 'G.'"

Did you hear about the gnat who killed himself? He committed pesticide..

Irishmen know that tomorrow is St. Paddy's Day. His Gaelic name is Padraig; St Patty is the anglicized version. And a true Gael would never refer to their patron saint with an English nickname. Up The Republic!

I’m 3% Irish but the 9% of me that’s Scottish had ancestors that migrated to Northern Ireland, stayed for a couple generations, then moved on to North America. We’re the orange part of the Irish flag. 🇮🇪

The (Washington) Nats is the name of our baseball team down here in the Mid-Atlantic.
They're Nats when they're going well and gnats when they're not.

Well, happy St Pattys Day to all including Nica the Gnat O’Muhl and her teammates. May the Luck of the Irish be with them at least till April 4th.

A toast to Gnika O'Muhl. May her steals outnumber her turnovers. And may her gnatiness follow her wherever she goes.

"The gnatte is a litil fflye, and hatte culex he soukeþ blood and haþ in his mouþ a pipe, as hit were a pricke. And is a-countid a-mong volatiles and greueþ slepinge men wiþ noyse & wiþ bytinge and wakeþ hem of here reste. [Bartholomew Glanville, "De proprietatibus rerum," c. 1240, translated by John of Trevisa c. 1398 ]"

Let us hope that our fierce gnat will soon win her first gnatti.

Misspelled it, I think. Did you you mean "Nothin' gnu there"?
