End of last month, start of academic year and a marshmallow soft academic weighs in on a school mascot! Mascots are supposed to be TOUGH and intimidating. If you don't like it, go to a school with a nice gentle butterfly or a tree mascot!
uhhh, it looks like 3 crosses to me end to end.. but that’s just me.. what’s the problem. ;-)
Oh jeez...
And the mascot inspires the football team to run into the other team and pull them to the ground. Oh the horror!
Whaaaaaaaaaa! U of I needs more safe places.
This has GOT to be satire.
How big of a 18-20 something year old wuss do you have to be to be intimidated by a mascot’s grimace?
LOL...almost got me there, Semmens...
That’s right. Make the Hawkeye smile......it will be really intimidating to your football opponents! BWAHAHAHAHAH!
more precious snowflakes melting at college campus all around the nation
My favorite is the UCSB Banana Slugs. No I’m not making it up.
Any college age person who can’t handle looking at this mascot should probably just shoot themselves now. Life is just too hard for them away from the protection of mummy and daddy.
People like this feeble imbecile need to “GET A FREAKIN LIFE!”
And those darling scared snowflakes might be running the country in later years.
The Wichita State Shocker mascot was given a friendlier looking overhaul a number of years ago, but it wasn’t because of pussified students. I preferred the meaner looking WU Shock. If you’re going to have a mascot, make it a fighter, not a passive piece of material.
This special snowflake should never, ever go watch a PG-13 rated movie, much less anything R-rated. The experience would traumatize her to the point where she would have to drop out of college.
I also hope she never sees graffiti. Some of it conveys quite violent messages.
I also hope she never accidentally wanders over to the wrong side of town. Some of the people she might view there are really scary people, covered with tattoos and piercings and generally taking on aggressive appearances.
In fact, I think the best thing for this little precious snowflake is to go back home to mommy and daddy and lock herself in the basement, without any TV, internet, radio, or any other means of interacting with the real world. If her parents don’t have a basement, she can pin cardboard over her bedroom windows. That world out there is an intensely scary place!
Clint Eastwood was right.
College kids today are “pu$$ies.”
OTOH, a lunatic yelling ‘ Allahu Akbar’ and charging these snowflakes’ necks with a machete is just all sugarplums and kumbaya.
Welcome in to our safe space, let’s coexist.
Yep, that’s the ticket.
