Slog - Comments on Blood Brother http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/07/blood_brother A text message from my friend Hester: Just passed a nerdy dude wearing a shirt that said "I'm a Keeper." Is that something other than a gross device for catching my period? Thanks for the offer, guy!...

"Like ohhh mmmyyy gawddd! Like he was like sooo much a nerd. And wait, like I am texting you the gawd's honest truth, he like had this nerdy shirt that was like sooo uncool. I was like, hey nerd like what do you want to catch? my period or something or whattt??? LOL! I would send you a picture of him but I like have filled my phone with pictures of the cutest shoes! And that hot shoe salesman. Now he can catch my feet anytime! Got to go, Hester"

You were obviously passed up when picking sides for sports in PE.

Nerd.

It's referring to his suitability as a long-term mate. It's from fishing, where a "keeper" is one nice enough (i.e., within the legal size limit) to keep, as opposed to throwing back in the water.

As in "he's a keeper", meaning, he's a good guy and you should continue dating him.

Everyone is right. Except Hester and Lindy.

Now I'm confused. What are you guys talking about? This man's t-shirt could obviously refer to nothing but a menstruating hippie's rubber vagina cup. I've never heard of soccer but it sounds stupid.

I'm a chaser, myself.

Can't a "keeper" also refer to a hockey or lacrosse net minder? The prejudice here had now reached a new level. It sickens me to be a part of this obviously soccer biased discussion.

Anyone want to buy one? I can have them out this week.
