Moving perpetual adolescence into mainstream America. One snowflake at a time.

Professor Wagstaff: Tomorrow we start tearing down the college.

Professor in Wagstaff’s Study: But, Professor, where will the students sleep?

Professor Wagstaff: Where they always sleep: in the classroom.

My college roommates said I snored very loudly. I would have been thrown out of the library back then.

Could have used those when I was at Maryland.

As a commuter, I had to catnap in my car. The student union was too bloody loud, and the library desks didn't have pillows back in the day.

With the recurrence of bedbugs and all manner of nasty things, I'll pass on the communal bedding. Cars are much more comfortable today especially with sunshades on the windows.

Finally, recognition for the needs of old men.

Why can't they sleep during lectures like students always have?

I’ll admit to having napped in my car in between classes a few times. One time I was asleep and one of my friends from class knocked on the window. Scared the crap out of me. Lol. She was just waking me up so I wouldn’t be late to class.

The heck with the student. They are young and could stop partying at night.
Now I think Wallyworld should have napping stations for us old me to utilize while our wives window shop.

Pathetic. Why can’t they just doze at the carols in the library?
