College Accidently Accepts Students, Doesn't Know How to Break It Off

Papal Elections 2016

BY CAILLOU

PENNSYLVANIA -- Over the past few months, a socially awkward college accidently accepted over 1000 students for its undergraduate program and doesn't know how to let them know that actually they don’t really want them there. The college’s name is being withheld at this time out of pure shame. "We weren't looking for anything serious, maybe we gave off the wrong message. Now they're moving in and we just don't know what to do! We don't want them to hate us. We still want to stay friends and keep them on our mailing list to spam them with graduate school brochures in four years. But for right now, it's just moving too fast. It doesn't feel right." The students and the college have only gone on one admission interview together, yet the accidental acceptances have shown up to the college with their tuition payments in hand. One even brought their puppy Rosco, a 5-year-old Daschund that hasn't been neutered, but is really friendly and you'll love him. The student neglected to tell the college that Rosco likes scratching up furniture, and might create a mess in the kitchen. Unlike the college, the students are excited to start their new life with the college.

"Honestly, meeting [college name] has been the greatest thing that has ever happened to me. Before we met, I was a lazy, good-for-nothing stoner who barely got Cs in high school. But once we met, something changed. I knew we were destined for each other! I cleaned up my act, became a straight-A student, and I feel better about myself too! If I didn't get accepted, I don't know what I'd do. Probably hold an intense grudge with them and do everything in my power to destroy their reputation until Satan himself draws the last breath from the cavernous bowels of my animosity towards them." The Rutgers University Admissions Office was approached by the college looking for advice on how to turn away applicants. Kendra Rayburn, the Dean of Admissions was pretty neutral in her response to them. "Just break it off with them already. The longer you wait, the worse it will get. At this point, you're just leading them on." However, even with Rutgers' advice, the college still seems reluctant to follow through with the break-up. The college said, "We think we're just going to ignore the problem until they go away in four years. "

POPE FRANCIS This Easter, Pope Francis reflected on his past three years in power. He told the public, "Things have improved, but there's still much to do." Experts say that his prospects for re-election are favorable in 2016.

IN ANOTHER UNIVERSE

What’s Wrong With Wanting to Gay Rampage BY SHANE CROMICK Fuck a Freshman? Straight lives matter! Ever since

BY MICHAEL PARRE So, here’s the thing: You must think I’m a depraved, manipulative human being for fantasizing about sex with a student. But this is my side: what’s wrong with wanting to fuck my hot freshman student? I mean, aside from the stupid Title IX legal restrictions placed by Rutgers that could send me to prison if I break them. She’s taken four of my classes so far, and has sat in the same seat in the front row each time. Do you know how many times I’ve gotten the “I’m sucking your dick in my mind” look from her? Many. Many fucking times. And to those of you who are thinking “He’s such a predator, he’s abusing his power by coercing his impressionable young student,” Fuck.You. I’m a 27 year-old male professor, how dare I try to take advantage of some poor freshman? Yes, she is a freshman. A fucking 35 year old freshman. How do you take advantage of a 35 year old? If anything, I want her to be taking advantage of me. Let her be the professor in this case. Look, I don’t know why a 35 year old woman decided to come back to college to study English literature, but far be it from me to judge. Maybe she’s a divorcee and has decided to “find herself.” You know what, fuck it. I’m gonna let you in on a little secret. We DID fuck. And it was good. I have no regrets. Although I did briefly question myself when, in the middle of me fucking her into oblivion, she said to me, “Katy Perry just really has inspired me to be my own woman. To rise above the patriarchy. Just like that woman in ‘Gone Girl’ did.” Speaking of, the main dude from ‘Gone Girl’ fucked his student too. And everything worked out just fine for him, didn’t it?

REAL ADVICE ABOUT FAKE THINGS

The Importance of Varying Your Sources of Fake News

BY DYLAN DECKER So you’re probably a smartass aren’t you? Always posting these ridiculous humorous, satirical, laugh-your-ass-off articles on to Facebook and Twitter to catch one of your less bright peers off guard and make them believe something outrageous like nerds holding house parties. But here’s a tip from me, a self-proclaimed master of fake news: vary your sources. Seriously, eventually those monkeys will realize that you’re always posting content from, say, The Onion, Clickhole, or The Medium, and even though it’s all great stuff, they’ll realize it’s fake. And then the magic is lost, because they won’t go around believing that scientists found the chemical Dihydrogen Monoxide in their water and start freaking out. There are a ton of non-stop humor and satirical news sources out there and you all should start looking into them, such as the Private Eye or Indecision Forever. And heck, once in a while put a real article in, you know to establish some credibility. This way you can truly dupe your friends and be forever the master of comedy in your social network of four-hundred friends.

the formation of LGBT movement, several extremist gangs have risen from these communities. Hetero-phobic hate crimes have been rampant in the Rutgers area, degrading the freedom of students simply because of their attraction to the opposite sex! As a straight man, I feel as if I am walking around with a giant target on my back, waiting to be attacked by these gay gangsters. I have no choice but to live my life as a closet heterosexual. Whenever I go out with my buddies to locations such as a gay bar or Hollister, I have to be fully conscious of my words and actions. Even Twitter has been trending with a new hastag, entitled #StraitorsGetOut. This new terminology combines the words “straight” and “traitor” to create a powerful statement against the non-gays. I have been taunted with the new discriminatory lingo, I have been publicly humiliated, and I have even been tripped and pushed to the ground. Just last week, straight men and women alike have stepped up and protested against this prejudicial hate. About 200 people walked the streets of New Brunswick demanding equal rights and treatment. The gay gangs were seen posting up on street corners and driving around the surrounding area. Halfway into the peaceful protest, a man and a woman were reported to be kissing each other, when an unknown suspect shot them. They were both rushed to the Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital, where they were pronounced dead upon arrival. The shooting resulted in mass rioting and looting. Almost everyone died! Further investigation indicated that the man and woman were actually bi-sexual, resulting in the dropping of charges and hopefully even a possible peace treaty between the Homo and Hetero’s.

HI.

Happy Easter Wednesday! That’s a thing, right? Before you come down off your sugar high from all the crap you consumed this weekend, make sure to send in funny stories about how your family members yelled at each other around the dinner table. And if you don’t celebrate Easter...make it up, biotch.

A RANT FROM AN ANGRY PERSON REXB and REXL, see what the fuck you guys did. I written complains every semester that I am here in Rutgers in the surveys and to the transportation department themselves, but you guys don’t fucking listen. I told you guys many times, please do not stop at Red Oak Lane for 5 minutes or more. My class is near Lipman and the stop is like a minute away and takes me 3 minutes to walk there. Now you have to fucking take 5 stupid minutes to wait there and by the time i walked to Lipman, the buses start and reach Lipman at the same time. I mean, what the fuck, I am always late for class because of bus drivers screwing around with their cell phones in Lipman for 5 stupid minutes. Stop at ARC, makes more sense. I know Lipman is a great place to stop because of low traffic but come on... Just get to stupid Lipman fast... Or just stop at Lipman and play with your phone there. Don’t even get me started on that stupid one door white bus. Everytime I wait for humans to get down the bus in order to hop on that bus, it’s like a never ending line of annoyingly slow moving humans coming down the bus, takes like 1 and a half minutes to get up that goddamn bus. Happy now? School system got hacked and slowed down the whole academic process because the buses suck. I already told them and they don’t listen. My campus fees, I need a partial refund for dealing with this bullshit. But if no refunds, at least change my Biochemistry grade to an A or give me back Dr K in Molecular Genetics Lab, I don’t like juggling 3 separate lab experiments, writing 3 page lab reports and ridiculous pre-lab quizzes. That’s all I’m asking for. Moral of the day. Don’t suck if we pay good money for campus fees, unless you’re a fully paid scholar, then you’ll probably feel less depressed.

The whole point of Easter: the famous guy that lived in this little cave once for 3 days

(I’ve got to admit, I stopped reading this midway through the second paragraph. Sorry, but you’re just way too angry and/or have trouble being concise with your feelings. Didn’t you learn anything in English class? Anyway, next time you’re feeling frustrated with the bus system, I say you just take over the bus and start driving away. You’ll become a Rutgers legend, not only by word of mouth, but probably on Yik Yak too. And that, my friend, is what college is all about.)

So Furious 7 is like, you know, a movie. Its about cars, I think? Yeah, and Vin Diesel is in it, and hot women, and I heard Iggy Azalea was in it for like 2 whole minutes, which sounds super sick. Also there were cars! Yeah, like a shit ton of cars. And driving, but... not so much fast driving? Weird. Anyway, from what I understand, there were SIX OTHER MOVIES BEFORE THIS ONE. Like holy shit, guys, who makes seven movies? I thought the seven in the title was a joke or something, like 7 was relevant to the plot or something, you know, like it’s about the number 7, who was fed up with his life and starts going out on a rampage, murdering and brutishly canabalizing his best friend 9. But like, it’s a car movie, but not like Cars, where it’s about living cars, but like, about people who drive cars and take no shits. There was also a sad memorium to Paul Walker from what I heard. Shame what happened to the guy, so

DUKE FANS PREPARE FOR YANKEES, COWBOYS, NOTRE DAME SEASONS BY JUST THE TIP

INDIANAPOLIS- After watching their beloved Blue Devils win an NCAA national basketball championship Monday night, elated Duke fans in all fifty states turned their attention to their other favorite teams: the Yankees, Dallas Cowboys and Notre Dame Fighting Irish football. Aaron McDonald, a life-long San Diego resident and Duke fan since high school, traveled to Indianapolis to see the cham-

pionship game. “I’m speechless right now,” McDonald said after the university’s 68-63 victory over Wisconsin. “It’s a damn shame my Yanks lost today but I think they’re going to turn it around and I’ll be celebrating another championship in October. Then the ‘Boys are finally winning me one a Lombardi Trophy next year.” McDonald explained he has not been to Duke's Durham, N.C. campus but a visit to the

school is on his bucket list. “I’m gonna fly to Notre Dame to see Touchdown Jesus and my Golden Domers then drive right over to Duke,” he said. “I think they’re both pretty close together somewhere in the Northeast." Fans of the four geographically distant teams were excited to witness a championship after six long years. The Blue Devils last won in 2010, with the Yankees hoisting a World Series trophy the year before.

“I cried when the Irish lost in the national championship two years ago,” said 89-year-old fan Sandy Donaldson of Sarasota, Fla. “It’s tough being a fan of these four teams with all the heartbreak year after year. They’ve only won twenty championships since I became a fan in 1971!” Rapper Drake was also spotted trying to get onto the court after Duke's win, dressed head-to-toe in Blue Devils' gear.

Three Rutgers gymnasts who qualified for NCAA Regionals in Morgantown, W. Va. have been missing since Sunday. It is feared that they have decided to work in West Virginia's coal mines in order to pay off their

student loans. While the average salary for a miner is meager by modern standards, it is much higher than what the NCAA pays their student-athletes. Technically, everything is higher than zero.
