Hasheem Thabeet Not Impressed by Harangody or Hansbrough

Went through ESPN the Magazine this weekend, and noticed that Connecticut center Hasheem Thabeet had this to say about Notre Dame’s Luke Harangody and UNC’s Tyler Hansbrough. “Nobody’s better than me, only more experienced. I played Luke Harangody and he was not tough. Tyler Hansbrough? I don’t see nothing.” Two years ago, he just was a gangly freshman from Tanzania.

Stephen Colbert’s Strange Request To The Princeton’s Class of 2008

“Gandhi said, ‘you must be the change you want to see in the world,’” Stephen Colbert told an audience of thousands at the Class Day ceremony this afternoon. “But may I also point out he drank his own urine, so let’s not go overboard on his advice.”

The host and executive producer of “The Colbert Report” and a one-time presidential candidate in his home state of South Carolina, Colbert drew laughter and applause from the assembled senior class and their families as he poked fun at Princeton traditions and urged the class to maintain the status quo after graduation.

Though the Class of 2008 “can change the world,” Colbert said, he pleaded with its members to “please don’t do that.”

“Some of us like it the way it is,” he explained. “Personally, things are going great for me right now.” [The Daily Princetonian]

Nine Signs He’s a Frat Guy

The darker it is, the more beer that’s present, the more likely it is that girls will be back-humped by a frat guy. It’s the frat boy’s way of saying, “Hello, I’m drunk and you have a vagina, please let me stimulate my penis while grinding on you.” Because this usually takes place in a dark basement, it means it’s somehow OK. Most don’t even mind that you can feel their aroused penis slithering over your leg while dancing at a party.

He’s probably a frat guy if… [CollegeOTR]

The most boring class I took in college was Statistics I.

It was boring and hard, which meant that no matter what I tried, I constantly fell asleep next to my computer and woke up completely lost.

If only I could have taken one of these classes compiled by Mental Floss Magazine, I’m sure my GPA would have looked much better. Instead of dozing off to the lulling sound of a professor droning on about ratios, I could have been studying muppets and watching Sesame Street.

All of these, at one time, actually existed.

The Horror Film in Context – Bowdoin – Watch people get their heads smashed in and then talk about why society likes to watch people get their heads smashed in.

Simpsons and Philosophy – Cal-Berkeley – How much does this popular show reflect society? Apparently enough to warrant a semester’s worth of lectures.

Maple Syrup: The Real Thing – Alfred – Haven’t you always wanted to know the entire history of syrup? (more…)
