Kittens, Coupons, and Falsehoods!


Saving Money > A Cute Baby Kitty (Barely)
FALSE


I can't help but to giggle at this. Apparently someone doesn't like saving money as much as they love cute baby kittens.

I saw this poster in the women's washroom in Gregory Hall. Thankfully, the first stall I entered wouldn't lock and I ventured into this neighboring one. Oh, how silly students are. You can't seem to bribe them even with saving up to 90% from our "favorite bars, restaurants, and more!" Perhaps the kitten on the poster isn't cute enough. Perhaps she is not worried about saving money because daddy pays for everything. Maybe she's a self-sufficient woman. Maybe she knows a deal when she sees one without the help of an online source. Or maybe someone is just being a sassy pants and doesn't want to admit that sometimes saving money is slightly greater than a cute baby kitty (barely).

Or wait a second... Is it that the cute baby kitty is barely less than saving money? Or is it that the barely cute baby kitty is less than saving money? Because, then I'd have to agree with the latter statement. That kitty is barely cute; so, yes, saving money would be greater than it.

Someone is trying to let us know that we can save money! We're poor college students who have empty pockets and this will save us! Save us! Okay, maybe not, but someone wanted to focus on the kitty part over the actual advertisement. Girls... I'll never understand them.

PSA


Stop peeing all over the seat!


I'm sure men have this problem too. Maybe? Maybe if you have young children.

But I find nothing more frustrating when I'm uncomfortably speed walking down the hall, rush into the bathroom, push the stall door and see the tinkles of a previous female. Not only do I find it absolutely disgusting that the seat either has sprays or a couple drops of urine, but it disgusts me to have to wipe down the seat before I go. Now, don't assume that I wipe then sit. No no no. I wipe. I wipe again. Then I put down three sheets of toilet paper on each side of the bowl and proceed.

If--if--by any chance there is even a little bit of tinklings on the toilet, then it is wiped away! What is so hard about that? The person after you will see what you've done. You've seen what you've done, so why don't you help everyone by cleaning up after yourself. I know this is a little juvenile to state, but it's something to keep in mind at points of our life.

Toilet users all over the world should keep in mind that a happy behind is a clean behind. Wipe your butts and wipe the seat, but not in that order... or at least, please use a new sheet of toilet paper. Let's stay sanitary, folks.
