when i used to work at best buy i would get asked if we had the new eminem cd a day after it came out, b/c he never sells out. its really bad when there was a sign up that said the eminem cd was sold out and i would still get asked.

also, when people ask me where i went to high school and id say millard west, people then proceed to ask me "do you know _____? they went to millard south." I went to MILLARD WEST! i did know a few south peeps, but chances are i dont know who youre talking about.

unlike late meals, in dorm housekeeping, unlimited meal buffets, unlimited free time, sports, activities, greeks, and such, there isn't a 70's driven greek system, and a Courtesy Service for all on campus college students for on-call greeks (preferably enlightened, enthusiastic sorority girls), this way all freshman can acclamate nicely to their new home. and on top of that, how come there's no encouragement of a anyone can participate porn video option like the happy go lucky, cooly, sharpy students of ohio state or was it ohio u, well anyway, that's a great model to follow, don't ya think??? College becomes too boring without a swizzly 70's push to it, right? All of our parents had it right, we are just little amateurs compared to them, limited to what we can do, because of the times, what a bore

Q-What's your major?
A-Advertising and Interactive Digital Media.
After saying this it is always followed with the next question and a generally scared and puzzled look on their face...

Q-What's that (IDM)?
A-A combination of Journalism, Computer Science, and Graphic Design, where take core classes in these areas and pick an emphasis. My emphasis is journalism.

Q-Can you fix my computer?
A-Um, no. I'm majoring in making media with a computer, not fixing them!

Q-Oh your friend Katie is so hot. She looks just like Gwen Stefani. Can you introduce me to her?
A-You’re the fifth person to ask me this tonight. Take a number.

Q-Where are you from?
A-Fairbury, Nebraska (pop 4500)

Q-How far away is that?
A-2 1/2hrs

If they know where Fairbury is, a combination of the next three q's are asked...
Q-So do you know so and so?
A-Yes. (considering my graduating class was only 64, if it's my town they're talking about the answer is always yes. The person then usually proceeds to ask me about everyone they know within a 75-mile radius of my hometown.)

Q-Oh Fairbury, isn't that where all the TKEs are from?
A-No, only 5 of them

Q-Why are those hot dogs red?
A-Because they are.

And just for fun , questions I heard way too much this weekend while at home and working at our wonderful Wal-Mart...the answers are more of what I was thinking than what I really said.

Q-So have you had a good semester?
A-Yes. This is why I haven't came back to this place all semester.

Q-Why didn't you play softball in college?
A-Because I wanted to have an actual college life.

Q-You're in a sorority? Why? Aren't they just a bunch of snotty rich sluts?
A-Rich? Obviously not since they let me in! Snotty and slutty? A lot less than you and the rest of this town! My sorority sisters don't have to worry about who their baby's daddy is or if their boyfriend is someone else’s baby’s daddy all the time!

Q-So do you have a boyfriend?
A-No

Q-Why don't you have a boyfriend?
A-I haven't found Mr. Right yet, no use in keeping around the real winners I tend to attract. Sorry I did not fall into the white trash trap that the majority of my hs classmates have fallen into by being married and popping out kids at 20, and wondering who the father really is (if you couldn’t tell, I really heard way too much hometown gossip this weekend! ).

Q-So where are those $5 crock pots you had in the ad?
A-They've been sold out since 6:15 this morning, and you're now the 500th person to ask me this today!

Are you mixed? Are you Hispanic? (after hearing my last name usually) No, I'm Italian. And if you had any sort of brain you would know that Mancini is about as Italian as it gets.

Are you related to Henry Mancini? (the famous composer) No

Well you were just destined to be a musician then, weren't you? (usually a companion question to above)

So what do you Music Therapists do anyway? Will you play me some music and make me relax? I am not even getting into that one here. www.musictherapy.org

You didn't grow up in Alabama did you? Yes, I did. I'm sorry I don't have an accent...my parents are from NY so we were always very conscious of how we spoke.

Did you go to Auburn? (because I'm from Auburn) Nope, Florida State.


So many more questions, but I think those are the main ones. I'm actually getting more annoyed the more I type!
