What you call Educational "Ads"
Quoting from a REAL ad on Noodle Cafe and Restaurant in New Haven, on RUMPUS!
Saying East Melange is a little better than Ivy Loodle* is like saying...Yale is little better than Harvard. Insulting, isn't it?
*Name has been changed for the safety of the other noodle place
Don't settle for mediocre, when the best is only a few steps away. Open late-real freakin' late...everyday.
Btw, RAMPUS is the infamous Yale publication, arrogantly entitled itself with "The Only Magazine at Yale about Stuff at Yale", and known for its ridiculously obsessive seasonal edition of "Yale's 50 Most Beautiful People". Look how the Yale hotties get themselves publicized, uh? Do please take your time and check it out at http://www.yalerumpus.com/
I am absolutely sure you will be impressed.
RAMPUS is honestly the second best way I ever learned about sex culture at Yale, the best way being the handwritings and posters on the various bathrooms walls across campus of course. And in its most recent edition there is this 2 full page analysis on "The Straight Guy--Rumpus penetrates anal sex at Yale", for totally educational reasons, it explicitly points out:
"Hoping to educate ourselves, we asked Colin Adamo PC '10 (Oh come on, I seriously saw him dressing up in a girl's skirt and tap danced in the Mr. Yale's competition representing our VERY own PC! He would have got a better chance making it to the final round if it was NOT a competition for GUYS! just kidding, Colin's awesomely cute, for sure), future sex therapist, if he could share some insight: Anal sex is like soup; you can either eat it or you don't. " Oh that's REALLY educational, isn't it?! Hold on till you finish the whole article.
And when I was having dinner tonight, I was surrounded by a group of sophomores that I barely know of, and suddenly one of them yelled out with excitement that he personally know about this *Name* who appeared on the article with his REAL name, and the other guy immediately responded, "isn't that the guy who said it's better to do with the finger first?" Oh come on, "I am still here!" Please don't just shout out those words into my face?! And for God's sake, we're still in the Dining Hall! It's NOT like in your own bedroom!
Anyway, That "I'm still here" so reminded me of Chandler in "Friends", you know that scene when Joey and Rachel discussed about blablabla and almost just totally forget about Chandler? hoho, I love "Friends".
Well, ok, after all, awkward as it may seem at first sight, I have been learning to get used to these stuff and even began to enjoy reading them. I mean, READ! And of course, for educational reasons...
P.S, a friend of mine just suggested I should open a column someday, "Sex and Yale". A joke of course, but quite an interesting idea, I am so not experienced for that, but it's still an interesting idea, isn't it? If that's part of the education you're supposed to get, as an international student in the US...
