...but I don't care, becuase I'm gradimaketed! BS in Chemistry!

As of yesterday, Washington State University has one more alumni. It was pretty kick-ass. During the commencement we brought a bunch of beach balls. As they start announcing all of the undergraduates for their degrees, we blew up the balls and threw them into the crowd. They were more entertaining than anything else, especially when the head usher just about blew a fuse trying to keep them down and out. People just kept grabbing them and throwing them back into the crowd. Even the families and friends were really getting into them.

The absolute best part: The Dean of the biology department got nailed by one in the face. He laughed, and threw it back up in the air. Couple of the Provosts/Regents were hitting the balls back into the people, too.

I'm so glad I made a positive impact on WSU. They should erect a statue for me or something.

I said that too. My girlfriend & my parents were NOT amused. I ended up going to keep from getting murdered.

 

[-dustin]

Same here, except this time I graduated in my home town, so it wasn't a big deal. Graduated in april, walked the next December.

Sweet! Congratulations.

 

[Radarr]

Thanks everyone. Now the real question is this: who got me something for graduation?

Congrats, however Since when do people graduate in may?

We started in August, so we get out at the beginning of May. I don't know why, but it's kind of nice.

Especially WSU.

Haha, it's not that bad. You just have to watch out for the "1/3 of the females on Greek row have an STD" crowd, and you're good to go.

Cool man, congrats!

Just make sure that you get a lot of your friends to blow them up, too. Spread them out, then unleash hell at a specific time. Text messages is how I got all of my troops to do it.

 

[BigMike]

Awesome, and good call on the text messages!

Spice things up a bit. Bring a blow up doll.

 

[SkaredShtles]

Congrats. But

It's only 1/3 eh? I would have bet higher.
WWU has no greek system so I had nothing to worry about there.
(where's that smarmy smiley?)

 

[Radarr]

Congrats. But

Do you want pictures of the girls with STDs or the beach balls? If its the first, I really don't think I can get access to the Student Health building video cameras so that you can see everyone getting pap smears. For you, though, I will try my best.

We thought about this:

but we didn't want to sit there for 10 minuted inflating the damn thing. We did consider bringing in one of those little CO2 bicycle tube inflators and a couple of extra CO2 cans/tubes

Beach balls would be sufficient.

Haha, I'll try and find some.
