What is Aub?
1.
Typically, an individual who associates themselves with the loveliest little village on the plains, known as Auburn University. They are also known to associate themselves with a severe, often unhealthy inferiority complex regarding their cross-state rival, The University of Alabama, the State's flagship institution. This complex is also commonly referred to as the "red-headed stepchild syndrome," which is ironically appropriate because Auburn is a dark shade of the color orange. Historically, you can identify an 'aub' by their country/confused clothing style (sometimes including flannel, yes it's 2008).
The mere sight of anything 'Bama related will send a true 'aub' over a cliff psychologically. They are certain to tell anyone who will listen that Coach Paul W. "Bear" Bryant is dead and was a drunk with a certain morbid glee. They have also been known to proclaim that 'Bama fans live in the past, are delusional, are 'side-walk' fans (an apparent swipe at fans who didn't attend the Capstone), and label them "Bammers," and as a last resort will yell "6." They will call The University of Alabama the "crapstone", UAT, or any number of other school-yard labels. As you can see, this inferiority complex is bred into their herd over the generations. Much like dementia, diabetes, ebola, and avian flu, there is no known cure for this complex. Fortunately, the large animal hospital on Auburn's campus is making great strides while championing the effort to find a cure.
