5C Fall Break Reportedly “A Total Shitshow”

 

The Golden Antlers hope you had a relaxing fall break. Or not. But whether you embarked on a spiritual journey in the LA hills or collected STDs (sexual Pokemon) at a nearby state school, we guarantee you had one hell of a better time than these poor unfortunate souls. Here’s a list of fourteen fall break plans gone wrong (and if you were one of these people, better luck next time):

Out of state roommates Lisa Carr ‘16 and Emily Hanes ‘16 attempted hitchhiking to "San Fran" to experience more of "Cali". They gave up somewhere between Fresno and Bakersfield aka the armpit of the state. Hanes and Carr reported the trip was “not nearly as hella dank” as expected.

An unnamed student’s plane had a layover in Dallas, where she developed a slight cold. She spent the rest of fall break fearing that she had Ebola. And bleeding from the eyes.

Several freshmen went home to go break up with their high school sweethearts, only to find that they had already slept with all their friends who stayed in their podunk hometowns to party at state schools.

A group of carefree, nature-loving individuals decided to camp on a budget in Pitzer's Outback. Unfortunately, they ran out of food and had to resort to foraging local flora and fauna. Spit-roasted chicken a la prickly pear never sounded so appealing.

Some loser didn’t make plans because his roommate was totally going to invite him to San Diego. He spent the weekend alone with Netflix and Mix Bowl.

“My friends think they’re so cool because they watched 69 hours of Adventure Time while tripping on acid in the desert,” said Phil Bowles Harvey Mudd ‘16. “But little do they know that I did krokodil with some guy named Jim who didn’t speak English, or any language for the matter, at a dive bar in Silverlake.”

A certain sponsor group drove to Tijuana. Six hours later, they found themselves in the middle of a drug cartel negotiation. It was like real life Weeds, only this time, jail was very real. Should have paid more attention in Spanish 22!

More than one student visited a family friend in a suburb he can’t remember the name of. When he wasn’t stuck with his awkward cousin who loved anime and vegan baking, he was forced to play with the family’s aging golden retriever who was going blind and wears adult diapers.

Jack (Pomona ‘17) masturbated. All. Weekend. Long. He regrets nothing but the lingering scent of spiritual stagnation (and the fact that he now believes his room’s fluorescent lights are better than normal ones).

After hearing these soul-crushing stories, the Golden Antlers staff asks you to consider those less fortunate than you. In other words, please refrain from bragging about how much fun you had “hiking to the top of Machu Picchu and then tripping for three days straight on ayahuasca,” as not everyone had as glamorous or fabulous of a weekend as yours.
