the joker

January 5th, 2009 · 54 comments

because it’s monday and you’re so thrilled to be back at work, i though it was as appropriate a time as any to bring you these little gems from the columbia, kentucky and melbourne, australia campuses, respectively, of the university of what the fuck.

that is, if i get the time

i really don't think i'm being anal-retentive here, but...

(and commenters, please note the enormous exercise of restraint demonstrated by the lack of “anal-retentive” punning in this post’s subject line.)

tilt your head upwards.

josh from annapolis, maryland says the first and last note in this exchange were apparently written by stephen, a college student at a school “known for it’s obtusely intellectual, chronically spacey student body.”

the notes were gone within a few days, but josh says the situation hasn’t exactly improved. in the meantime, he says, “i’m kinda worried for my own safety. i recently saw this kid chopping firewood in the backyard, so he definitely has an ax.”

putting the “x” in “xmas”

December 29th, 2008 · 82 comments

“my family moved out of the house we grew up in seven years ago, and our old neighbor sent us this christmas card,” writes gloria in los angeles. (gloria herself seems to have made a particularly strong impression…)

the though that counts

meanwhile, in providence, r.i., jessica’s aunt seems to be doing her best to put the “x” in “x-mas.”

good will and peace of the Christmas season

libby from sydney, australia found this note taped to the wall of the IGA supermarket in newtown, sydney. “feeling sympathetic though somewhat amused, i took a photo of it — i didn’t really think it would be fair to take it with me.” (that is, of course, more than can be said for a certain junkie scumbag lowlife.) 

no, daddy -- i asked for a wii!
