Yeas & Nays
Issue date: 1/16/09 Section: Forum
Yea to three day weekends. They only come what, once a term? How sweet is it to get down on a Sunday night?
Nay to still getting intoxicated on Sundays when it's not a four day weekend. Stress relief comes at a price.
Yea to the lack of rain that we have been experiencing. Although there has been a decline in exciting biking crashes.
Nay to bashing on Corvallis. Without all you fine individuals, we would have no Police Beat detailing the fun you had last weekend while driving around drunk, naked and barreling into bicycle cops.
Yea to New Zealand police, who posted a security video of a burglar trying to crack a bar's safe on Facebook and solved the case with the help of the online community in just a few hours. Apparently Facebook is actually good for something other than preventing you from getting jobs and letting your professors know that you aren't actually sick, you're just hungover from last night.
Nay to the negative effects of Pint Night. The embarassing walk of shame to class Thursday morning is even more obvious with an empty pint glass in your hand.
Yea to the free pint glass, unless you are like most of us and choose to see how high you can throw it until it breaks. Not very high, huh?
Nay to forgetting the name of that cute person in your class when she asked you to go to coffee and you couldn't introduce her/him to your barista friend. Embarassing!
Yea to your barista friend thinking on his feet and introducing himself to the cute person before she/he could see your poor memory.
Yea to creepy coincidences on our campus. Have you noticed that most people at OSU have a "twin?" That one other individual who looks totally like them, causing you to almost walk up and give them a hug but stop yourself just in time to realize you are talking to yourself in the middle of the quad. Awkward.
Nay to being harassed in the quad. Our plan? Write a petition to end petitions in the quad, and then stand out there petitioning petitioners. Oxymoron anyone?
Yea to people being obnoxious in an intelligent way.
Nay to silly clowns with poor enunciation. Bye-bye Bush!
Yea to taking dance PAC classes. For two hours a week you can be a graceful smelly hairy jerk instead of the normal smelly hair jerk that you usually are. Plus you get to meet cute girls.
Nay to being a girl who falls for a guy in a dance class. Might want to re-think that one.
Yea to hilarious accidents. Such as the goat that set a house on fire in Iowa.
Nay to arson by way of farm animals. Seriously, keep those goats where they belong.
Yea to this sentence. And this one too.
