Senior Drops Out to Invent Cool Stuff or Start Company or Something

Two weeks before graduating from the Swanson School of Engineering like a lame-o, Mark Feply dropped out in order to invent cool stuff or start a company or something. “Because look at Gates and Jobs and Zuckerberg,” he said.

During his four years in college, Feply had invented nothing, made no scientific breakthroughs, recorded no albums and written no books. While literally all of his friends were doing something cool with their lives, Feply failed to do anything buzzworthy.

Refusal to Vaccinate Causes Scientific Illiteracy in Children, Study Finds

A study published recently in Science found that parents’ refusal to vaccinate their children for fear of autism causes astonishing rates of scientific illiteracy in said children, who may also grow up to be conspiracy theorists. Though the refusal often leads to outbreaks of potentially deadly diseases, the study’s authors warn that the more dire consequences include denying whatever established scientific truths happen to clash with one’s cultural or religious beliefs.

BREAKING: I’m Scared to Shave because If I do then I will Look like Tintin

By Tom Harnett

Listen, It’s never easy being a ginger.  I’ve accepted the restricted life I will have to live because of my unfortunate condition.  I’ll never be able to be a Middle School teacher because I wouldn’t be able to teach over the students yelling that I don’t have a soul.  I will never be able to live in a Tropical climate because the sun is too prominent.  I’ll never be able to talk to another ginger without people assuming we are siblings.  I have accepted these things.  What I cannot accept is the fact that I look like Tintin when I’m clean shaven.

To the people that will surely take this as a slight to the semi-popular star of the line of children’s books, I mean no insult.  The fact is that I would normally enjoy looking like the star of a movie which has a 75 percent on Rotten Tomatoes and which grossed $77 million domestically.  It’s just the fact that I am 20 years old.  I should be maturing both mentally and physically, and I don’t want to look like a 13 year old cartoon boy.  

Again, I have the utmost respect for Tintin.  I would like to make that clear.  I just don’t think my love life will exactly flourish when girls see a picture of me and the cartoon youngster side by side.  And for that reason, I have decided to grow a beard.  It’s not only a beard, it’s a journey that I hope will take me to exciting places around the world where I can meet and help new people.  I can go on adventures and accomplish tasks across the earth!
