Temple Tweets

You’d think by the time I was a senior I would be over the fact that Temple doesn’t give us a fall break. But I should have known myself better than that. I’m still pissed at a professor who accused me of cheating freshman year when I totally didn’t. I wasn’t a deviant until my second year, duh. Anyway, while twitbags from every other college in the nation tweet away about how awesome fall break is, we all sit in class thinking about how much we hate them. Actually, we are mostly thinking about how we hate each other.

Maybe it is just me who is beginning to hate almost everyone. Yet I can’t help but think that if we had a fall break, maybe my level of hatred would go down. This is a lot of time to be in the close proximity of people without any sort of break. As the semester ticks by, the ruder Temple employees and students become. I know I am not exactly a ray of sunshine, but at least I know how to pretend to be polite.

What kind of monster seriously runs to skeet through the door so that they don’t have to hold it open for the next person? Is your life as a Temple student so devoid of meaning you cannot find it in your sad, little black heart to hold the door for the poor girl behind you juggling two bags, a handful of books and a coffee? Pound sand.

@iBugMarie: At temple doing my community service . its sad how many people coming in here to take HIV tests & STD tests…smdh

What’s really sad is that people who are safe and concerned about their health had to deal with your ignorant judgment while they were being tested.

@Maxwell_Poops: I am outside the tech center acting like I go to temple and there is a dude with a serious dragon b z hair cut.

I don’t think you have any authority to criticize anyone’s haircut while you are hanging around the TECH Center when you don’t even go to Temple. I am hoping you were waiting for a friend or a significant other, but I doubt that because of the immaturity of your username. I’m sure the author of “Everybody Poops” doesn’t appreciate your unoriginality.

@sowrngitstaylor: the people at the library are always so f—— rude..

Why is everyone so rude? At the TECH Center, some bro asked if I was going to be there for a while so that I could watch his stuff, and I said “No,” because I was leaving in a few minutes. He laughed, told me I would be there and walked out. I didn’t know not having a neck and enjoying expensive clothes your mommy bought gave you such a right of entitlement.

Maybe the two days we get off for Thanksgiving break will be enough time for me to take enough Nyquil to forget how hard it is for some people to interact with each other. It’s kind of funny some people are going to be scientists but lack the ability to say thank you. And when I say “funny,” I mean I have to laugh so that I don’t cry.
