Posted: 06.07.2003 Ahhhhh...to be young and panty-free
We're watching "Jackass: The Movie" right now. We've never really watched the show, and all I can be is incredibly thankful they weren't around when we lived in the Honors Dorm. You put that many academic and National Merit Scholars in that close of a space, and it can only spell disaster. Like a contest for the largest items you could drop off the top of the stadium press box. A stadium light, that I can't exactly divulge where it came from, won. Or the 2-story catapult the guys built to propel items against a 4-story brick wall in one of the quads. Many a Letterman moment to be had there. Or the time we saved the little creamer containers from the cafeteria for an entire semester, because we watched someone toss the powder in the air and light it once. We left a 2-story scorch mark up the fire escape wall, that was still there three years later. There was also the "couch stacking" contests held in the lounges -- to see just how many couches we could stack, often filled with occupants, on top of each other. Think Human Jenga... Then there was tree climbing, in your underwear, in the snow. And the 1991 "He-Man Die Wet Adventure" during a flash-flood. There was a killer hill behind the athletic center, and all the guys dressed up in garbage bags from head-to-toe. Most, not all, donned crash helmets and went flying down the mud-hill like an earthened slip-n-slide.
My class was also legendary for its pranking -- like the time my boyfriend and a friend went around and gathered every single pumpkin lawn-leaf bag late on Halloween evening, and piled them floor-to-ceiling in the middle of the night while my girls' floor was asleep. We had to call a maintenance man to get out of our rooms. The ENTIRE hall was filled floor to ceiling. I got him back by building a door of duct tape and carefully sealing it over his door in the middle of the night. He had Guard drill and got up at 4:30 a.m. every morning. Walked right into the sucker. Of course, he repaid me by putting my Dodge Omni up on blocks the last morning of the next semester. I went to get in my car to drive across campus for a final...and well, needless to say, I ran to make it on time after pulling an all-nighter. Thank god I was still hopped up on No-Doz. The only way he even made up for that one was getting Todd and I tickets to the Orange Bowl when OU won the national championship in 2000. Ahhhhh...the good old days. But again, thank god this movie didn't give us any more ideas. I think the emergency room would have been the least of our worries. The morgue would have been a more likely destination.  i've never seent eh movie but i laugh my ass off at theshow. dumbasses, but funnyas hell! hahahhahahah ¤ ¤ credit: yvonne | 06.07.03 at 12:33 AM | link- -this ¤ ¤ My sister Robyn just rented that movie and told me that I JUST HAD TO rent it. It's on my "to rent list," along with "about schmidt." Too many movies, too little time. ¤ ¤ credit: Jenni | 06.07.03 at 01:10 AM | link--this ¤ ¤you know, we rented it when it first came out a few weeks ago, and i actually walked out of the room about 45 minutes in... i just found it so completely stupid, and i couldn't take it anymore. hubby finished it without me, which was fine with me. so did you actually like it? ¤ ¤ credit: webgrrlie | 06.07.03 at 09:31 AM | link--this ¤ ¤Yeah, I thought it was freakin' hysterical -- but then again, "I lived it" in college. ;-) There were a few parts I couldn't take, but for the most part, we were both rolling throughout. ¤ ¤ credit: robyn | 06.07.03 at 10:39 AM | link--this ¤ ¤In college the guys on the floor above us turned the shower into a hot tub. I loved Jackass also, brought back many college memories. ¤ ¤ credit: ginadapooh | 06.07.03 at 02:12 PM | link--this ¤ ¤
