The other day, a friend and I were playing the “which professional on Celebrity Rehab would you be?” game.

Buseyisms are really just made-up acronyms. Backward acronyms, I guess, but you start with the acronym and come up with the meaning to match the letters.
I’m sure you’ve heard these before… like FINE – Frustrated, Insecure, Neurotic and Emotional. Now, look at a few of Gary’s…
