Kvetching board for Dec. 7, 2011

kvetch:

To the girl wearing wrapping paper as a shirt on the P2P Friday night: No classy Christmas parties for you this year, huh?

To all girls on campus: If you actually stop fantasizing about the perfect Korean guy, you might actually find some real people worth your while.

Don’t worry Heels, it is only a matter of time before Calipari invalidates that win as well.

To the hottie grad student in the DeSimone Lab: My friends and I think you’re a stud, and with the semester ending we’d like you to take a break and explore your chemistry with us.

Define misdirected participation: Spending half a lecture spaced-out, mentally editing a kvetch.

The library during exams = the gym after New Years.

Chance of a few rain showers this week? I’ll risk it. It’s not worth putting the campus on lockdown so that I can carry around my full-size comic book umbrella.

To the guy yelling into his phone “Man, what gives you the confidence to get all up in my baby-momma s***!?”: What gives YOU the confidence to have this conversation in the middle of Stadium Drive?

To the kid in Davis stressing about the Monday crossword puzzle: Can I have your exam schedule?

To all those criticizing the basketball team: There’s a reason they’re on the court and not you. Go’n witcha bad self, b-ball team.
