​Westword's addition to the rapidly dying Sh*t _______ Says trend, Sh*t People From Denver Say, earned reactions as hilarious as they are varied. True to form, most readers who commented offered funny and insightful slogans we missed in our video of city stereotypes. (Some of you, on the other hand, just think we're racist hipsters.) Continue below for a list of our twenty favorite suggestions that didn't make it into the video.

​Our #snOMG snowpacolypse on Friday really dumped on Name.com, a local domain and website firm. The company released a spoof of a GoDaddy.com Super Bowl ad in which a nude model gets her body painted -- except the person being touched up is nearly naked Broncos running back Willis McGahee. Unfortunately for Name.com, the McGahee spot got snowed under -- but look below to watch it and the Go Daddy ad side by side.

​If you've ever driven beside a sloppy driver and blamed it on his California plates, you might be from Denver. The same thing is true if you can correctly pronounce "Chipotle," only drink craft beer or have been in any of the situations we've captured in the following video. After trolling the Internet for its stereotype of our fair city, we came back empty-handed (other than Shit Tim Tebow Does and Doesn't Say). So we made our own.

Videos: Madonna and Andy Lewis Super Bowl stunt's Boulder link

​Whether you loved or hated Madonna's Super Bowl halftime show (or caught M.I.A. flying the bird), you were no doubt impressed by Andy Lewis's demonstration of slacklining -- an athletic and highly entertaining variation on wire-walking. If so, direct some of that love Colorado's way. Gibbon Slacklines, which provided Lewis and worked with Her Madgesty's team, is based in Boulder.

​ESPN's Skip Bayless loves Tim Tebow so much that many viewers are ready to stage an intervention -- and that won't change after they see Bayless's Super Bowl week chat with The Chosen One. The full interview won't air until later this morning. But in the following preview, Bayless does everything short of bursting into tears to get Tebow to say he feels disrespected by not being guaranteed the starting QB gig. Yet Timmy won't play.

​In today's world, as we know, an experience doesn't seem real until it's been captured on video. With that in mind, check out the very first YouTube documentations of our ongoing Colorado snowstorm -- all of them posted hours before sunrise.

They're capped by a clip from a Broomfield High student who's unbelievably psyched about not having to go to school today. Wouldn't you be?

Video: Tim Tebow wields T-shirt cannon like all-pro on Jimmy Fallon

​NBC's Jimmy Fallon recently riffed on Tim Tebow-mania by crossing the QB with David Bowie to create...Tebowie. Then, last night, Tebow reconfirmed his sense of humor by appearing on Fallon's show. In the segment on view below, he mocked the host for being "pitchy" during the Tebowie skit -- an amusing gag, since Tebow may be the worst singer of all-time.

Tim Tebow.
​Earlier this week, while making a mental list of "Shit Westword Staffers Say," we decided to explore the massive "Shit __ Says" trend and its Colorado applications. It turns out, after a quick YouTube search, that there aren't a lot. Instead of "Shit People From Denver Say" ("Where are you from? No, originally") or "Shit Coloradans Say" ("Is this four-wheel drive?"), we stumbled across the state's transition to Hollywood and (duh) tons of Tebow material. Click through for videos.

Video: Anti-freaking dance clip freaks out Grand Junction

​As a native of Grand Junction, I know a little something about the town's conservative values. So I'm not even slightly surprised by the reaction to a Central High video featuring students grinding on each other, even though the clip was intended to discourage such behavior at school dances. See excerpts below.

​When Tim Tebow sings solo -- hear him crooning "My God is an awesome God" here -- he's terrible. Clearly, he needs help. And as our Backbeat blog reported, he received it from Brad Paisley Saturday night, intoning the title to "I'm Still a Guy" -- because after losing to the Super Bowl-bound New England Patriots, there was apparently some doubt. Watch the clip below.
