I have a fond memory of my frosh group coming across an Engineering group on campus. There was a guy with socks on his ears making golden arches while I made a giant V. Oh, memories. And we definitely took up the Commies suck mantle in ArtSci.
Well, bless his heart*
I don't remember "virgins" for the engineers, only "the big, the big, THE BIG PURPLE GEEKS!" And "commies suck" came mostly from the engineers. I was originally admitted as a B.Mus student, but did not remember any direct music-related comments, since we were part of ArtsSci (my frosh group was made up of music and…
Wait, 1972 was 41 years ago? DAMMIT! Remember when World War 2 was 41 years go? Or when the 50s were 41 years ago? Or when JFK was 41 years ago?
Do you remember all the derogatory faculty cheers? I can only remember Commies suck for money, Virgins (for the Engineers) and McDonald's/Do you want fries with that? (for ArtSci). Did Music and Nursing have them?
Air Force Academy, this might be a good time to change that sign

At my alma mater, the "fight song" (I guess that's what one would call it) apparently used to say "so BOYS go in and win." Now it is "so GAELS go in and win!" At least that's what our frosh leaders/Gaels said when I was a frosh.

Nobody ever died for dear old Rutgers,

When the coach says smash the Princeton line,
His reasoning is fine,
But it's no good for your spine,

You can get a little black and blue, but

I'm sorry, I have to take you down off of your Edy's pedestal. Nothing is more superior than this Blue Bell.
No, Madeline. YOU need to take a pumpkin sized chill pill with all that hatorade you're sippin. Because Pumpkin Spice and Apple Cider and all orchard related things are awesome.
You know what? Pumpkin spice is fun. If you don't like it, you don't have to eat it! People who have nothing better to do than get irritated by seasonal food trends can cry into their unspiced soy lattes and get a fucking life. Next thing you know we'll have people bitching about how too much stuff is chocolate…
YOU BACK THE FUCK OFF AND LET ME ENJOY MY TWO MONTHS OF PURE PUMPKIN DIET IN PEACE. HERE, HAVE A PUMPKIN DONUT.
