en, sharpen your pencils and take note: this weekend you can learn to defend yourselves from those pesky gamekillers, or, to put it crudely, cock-blockers. A gamekiller is that
girl who professes it's a "girls' night out" or the dude who lights his farts on fire and kills the mood, preventing your potential party hook-up. Mo Rocca, a former correspondent for The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, arrives on campus Saturday to teach both sexes to recognize and handle an approaching gamekiller in a comedic "lecture" called Gamekillers 101. But more importantly, KU students want to know what color shirt Rocca will be wearing during his lecture. You may remember Rocca donning a blue KU shirt as a contributor to VH1's I Love... series, only to wear a different shirt in an unflattering shade of purple in a later installment. Rocca pleads that he just wants to keep the peace and that the warring in Kansas over his wardrobe choices must stop.
Q: So, you're fresh off the plane. Did you get anything to eat on the flight?
A:The guy next to me grabbed a huge handful of food and wolfed down about half the basket they passed around, so I only got to choose one of the fancy biscotti.
Q: No peanuts? Are you pro- or anti-plane peanuts?
A: I'm all for bringing back the honey roasted peanuts. Pretzels remind me of the television show Coach. It was pointless, but you watched it anyway because it was there.
Q: You seem to have run the gambit — you were a writer for kid's TV show Spy on the Wild, an editor for adult men's magazine Perfect 10 and, most recently, a political satirist. Is there any job you won't do?
A: I would not do pay-per-view ultimate fighting. I bruise like a grape.
Q: You seem to have an affinity for animals. You penned "All the Presidents' Pets" and host a show on Animal Planet. Do you have any pets?
A: I think my involvement with those things has been guilt abatement for not having pets. I did have two cats that were extremely dog-like and affectionate, but they've passed.
Q: Is it true that dogs are chick magnets for guys?
A: Yes, Guys with dogs are gamekillers. There are 14 kinds of gamekillers and any number of them can have a dog as an added weapon.
Q: You first wore a Rock Chalk Jayhawk shirt on the I Love the '90s series, garnering the respect and admiration of students across the KU campus, but then you had to go and wear a K-State shirt on I Love the '80s 3-D. What gives?
A. This had been a very difficult issue for me.
Let's just say that my heart is with KU. However,
we have to have peace in Kansas. Look
how traumatic things were in the Bleeding
Kansas days. K-State sent me a shirt after that
appearance, and I didn't want any hostility
over my choice of shirts. I wanted to extend an
olive branch and wear a K-State shirt. But let
me tell you this: the K-State shirt was decidedly
less attractive. That purple made me look all
washed out. Plus, it was a polyester blend shirt,
and I liked wearing the KU shirt more, which
was 100 percent cotton. Please, don't think I'm
dissing you guys. I don't mean to send mixed
signals. I really like Lawrence because it's a
more progressive place. Wichita State begged
me to wear one of their shirts, but it was made
of corn husks and honestly that's just very itchy.
