Call Me Maybe - what a Harvard VidShizzle might look like
Hi guys! I know I am not "inner circle" (although maybe nearly everyone feels that way!). And I did not read RYS long enough to thoroughly understand the whole VidShizzle thing. But this video, brought to my attention by my kids, really did make me laugh.
I wish I had some students who illustrated this kind of sense of humor!
OH, and I didn't know only the "inner circle" was allowed to post Vidshizzles. Then again, not being part of the "inner circle," perhaps that's part of the rules no one has told us. This was cute.
Leslie, Cal, Fab and all the RGMs: You are all wonderful! I was just kidding. I actually am not sure this is really a VidShizzle. And I was also poking a little fun, in my obviously inept way, at folks who keep talking about the inner circle. Who around here, I wonder, actually feels like they are inner circle? But some people who come here seem to think there is, and maybe a secret rule book too! LOL! And the CC, too, was doing the same.
I am still wondering about the secret stash of drugs and alcohol in a shed somewhere in Miami Ohio. If there are clues here as to its whereabouts, I have yet to find them...
I meant no no no no no insult to you great folks who take so much shit all the time. Thank God you are willing to put up with it!
Woops. I meant to say I THINK the CC was doing the same. Even though I feel sure she was joining me in being facetious, I don't want to speak for others.....
Oh dear. My daughter has changed her major for the 4th time (she's supposed to graduate NEXT May), and I may be more frazzled and paying less attention than normal. I just wanted to make sure nobody felt like they weren't getting their space. Amends!!
Were Fab not on holiday - you lazy bugger :* - he wouldn't have missed the tone!
Fab is the one sleeping in the back row of the van. The make-up people and the CGI people have altered his appearance slightly, but that's him. Rest well, Fab.
To us middle aged losers, you are not behind the times. Also, if you think of yourself as the center, wherever you are is the inner circle. Narcissism: it really works!
I recently discovered that I was older than literally all of the NY Islanders, so I resolved to crush on their staff instead of their players. I settled on Doug Weight. But if I wasn't almost 40...
Where were cute Harvard-quality scholar athletes when I was young? Even if there's like sports-affirmative-action, the "dumb guys" of Harvard can't be that dumb. And even if they are, your husband's diploma would still hang in the den reading "Harvard", so who cares?
Years ago I went to a football game at Yale, and some coeds were talking next to us about how DUMB the quarterback was, and how mad they were that he had gotten into Yale. Apparently, the rumor was that he had earned a 1290, of all the embarrassing scores (please I hope you hear the sarcasm), on the SATs. This was back in the day when a perfect score was 1600.
I'd take these Harvard "dummies" any day of the week as students, and I agree, where were they when I was that age?
I have been informed that this video is so 36 seconds ago. Sorry about that. I am always behind the times.
ReplyDeleteYou and me both, Bella. :o)

DeleteI'm completely baffled as to what you folks are talking about. Has any correspondent ever been told not to post something?

I think they are being facetious, Leslie K.

DeleteBella, you know me so well. I, too, was being facetious about the "inner circle" so feel free to talk for me. :o)

ReplyDeleteBut but--did you pull the video? Maybe some of the rest of us are 42 seconds late and have missed it!!

DeleteYeah, actually. They can. But they hide it better. Privilege helps.
Wombat, I hear ya!
