Midterms week? How about THESE YAKS WERE SO MID THIS WEEK? There was no flavor, no motivation, no inspiration, much like the construction of half the buildings on campus. One Yik Yak user is quoted saying that, “Oliphant Hall is built like the backrooms, but at least we got a new dirt path this week.” Whoever said it sounds like the foley effects of the “Slender: The Eight Pages,” please know that I have not known peace since you mentioned that. Also, I know that we are all missing the weather-person but at least we have the Mayonnaise Golden Retriever in our midst.
Yik Yak users gave me so little to work with this week. In fact, so many of the top upvoted posts of the week included graphics, which doesn’t quite carry the same amount of spice that creative works do, unless you’re the clown emoji user generating a graphic nearly everyday. Keep up the great work. Without further ado, here are the top ten posts ranked by upvotes. For this serial, there are no repeats for the top 10, even if they’re still on the leaderboard a week later:
“Just asked ACAC Bill if he had any fun birthday plans and he said ‘no but I’ve got to be careful cause I have a girlfriend and I don’t want to make a baby’ ” – Tulsa
“Every time I have no homework to do I live in fear of a giant assignment that I’m forgetting all about” – Tulsa
“College is great because you have all of your exams around the same time so instead of failing one exam a week you can fail four” – Tulsa
“To the person who took my unofficial official assigned seat which made me then take someone else’s unofficial official assigned seat I hope you have a horrible day. To the person whose unofficial official assigned seat I took I would like to apologize.” – Tulsa
“If Christina Carter doesn’t leave me tf alone about this survey” – Tulsa
“As a school – as a community – we need to collectively work on being a little sexier” – Tulsa
“Sorry for having great tits and correct opinions” – Tulsa
“When studying takes away from time applying to internships and applying to internships takes away time for studying and both take away time from hobbies, friends, and fun” – Tulsa
“Thank you Motley Crue for the smooth elevated dirt between Kendall and Hardesty!” – Tulsa
“KA would say some [redacted] like ‘no more nice guy’ when losing a flag football game” – Tulsa
As always, here are the select few that I genuinely enjoyed quite a bit. These really stood out from the bunch this week, which wasn’t hard to do:
“Every time I think I have no homework, Spanish is lurking in the shadows” – Tulsa
“Just know that if you ask me questions after I finish a presentation I will put you on my hit list” – Tulsa
“Male birth control is free and it’s called holding a fish in your profile photo” – Tulsa
“Those red flags be looking pretty pink and orange when he gets a fresh haircut” – Tulsa
“Can’t wait for my next class! (i’m going to be playing 2048 the whole time)” – Tulsa
Do you want your Yaks to be featured next week on The Collegian? Be funny. Make Hannah laugh. That rarely happens.
