VENN DIAGRAM OF CHIPOTLE, EL DIABLO, AND CAL TORT Russel Kogan wrote this
One burrito to rule them all, but which one? Newark offers three fine choices, but this handy-dandy Venn diagram should help you make a decision about what burrito is your stomach’s beau-rito. Shut up, we’re hungry.
-Doesn’t distract you with non-burrito options -Funky t-shirts & cups that really make you think about the fact that someone got paid for that -Mmmm... Pibb
-Always has a line out the door -Makes your stomach explode -Across the street from each other, making it impossible to hide your loyalties -Built with scraps from an industrial junkyard -“Black or pinto??!! Hur ry up, people are waiting!!” -Offer burrito bowls, or what they call your salad to justify chargin g you more -Heat-presses the tort illas beforehand
-Occasional weird security guard at door -Choices choices choices! -¿¿QUESO?? -Cool sodas -Fish? Why fish? -They’re new, so they’re willing to do anything to please you, presumably -Outwardly Satanic

-Environmentally conscious and humane, but not enough to stop killing and selling animals -Designed like an Aztec prison -Lost a case under the Americans With Disability Act for failing to offer the full “Chipotle Experience” to customers in wheelchairs -A fa -Old N vorite amo ng U ewa have t o try a rk staples, D students nythin so you g new n or cha ever llenge your s en -Secre sibilities tly Sa tanic

-In Chipotle’s shadow; some say -Same side of the street -Bigger selection of products you can safely ignore while you order your burrito -Yummy sauces -Already-thought-of burrito ideas
-Plenty of empty seats -Has that “Spin the wheel for free” thing on Mondays -Offers a wide variety of funky sauces you’ll never use -Picked such a bad name that everyone shortens it -Adapts to competitive markets by raising their prices -Won’t be in business by the time most of you graduate
-Offers the “Burrito Elito” card, letting you know that they do not give a fuck about how Spanish works

55% Of Graduating Seniors Conceived To “Jump Around” By House Of Pain PAGE 4 • THEBLACKSHEEPONLINE.COM
Paul Mooney wrote this
A new study led by the University Of Delaware Department Of Sociology finds that over half of all undergraduates receiving their degree this May were conceived while their parents were listening to “Jump Around,” the 1992 hit by the rap group House of Pain. “Duhhhhhhh…. Duh. Duh. Duhhhhhhhh,” said the fake horns in the opening seconds of the song as Nellie and Raymond Taylor gave life to graduating public policy major Cassandra Taylor. “We’re so glad our Cassandra is graduating from UD,” said Nellie Taylor on Saturday, twentythree years later. “I’m always going to see her as the little baby Cassie who was always just the messiest eater,” Raymond added. “It was hysterical; every time she’d just put the spoon down and shoot her hand into the cup of apple sauce and it would spray everywhere,” said the man who just two decades earlier spent an entire Sunday afternoon trying to record a sex mixtape on his Walkman, but every time “Wildside” by Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch came on the radio he missed the first few seconds. However, he kept the tape running when “Jump Around” came on, because he liked the part where they
say “Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump!” Sandra Burroughs, mother of Frankie Burroughs, a senior graduating with a bachelor of science degree in civil engineering and a minor in sociology, said “It’s amazing to see my son in my shoes. “I remember when I was getting my civil engineering degree from UD,” she continued, recalling a plethora of fond college memories, chief among them having sex in the bathroom of a club soccer party with her future husband Arthur right as “Jump Around” came on the speakers. “Pack it up, pack it in, let me begin,” said MC Everlast over the Sony Boombox as Sandra and Arthur created their life’s proudest achievement. “I’m too drunk to put on a condom,” commented Arthur. “Whatever, it’s fine,” added Sandra. “I couldn’t have asked for a better daughter; I couldn’t have,” said father Mitchell Larimer. Growing a little misty-eyed, he added, “Just sometimes I think… because Sarah’s adopted, just the astronomical proportions of…

unlikeliness that she ended up with us. And I could not be happier with everything that happened, but… what if we went to another orphanage? Or another part of China, or another country? Or if Sarah actually got pregnant, or, if we waited, even just another month? Like what were the sheer unlikely events that brought her to us?” Reports confirm those events went as follows: In the harvesting season of 1992, after a long day of rice farming in Yuanyang County, Song Kao came home to his wife, Yi Ze. She slowly poured a cup of tea and turned up the small radio they received as a wedding gift the month before. “Word to your moms, I came to drop bombs,” rapped sideman Danny Boy over the static as Kao shed his sweaty rice farming garments and
planted the seeds of his next great harvest. A few hours later, Sarah’s future freshman roommate and best friend was being forged in the flames of the back of a karaoke bar. As this happened, for the third time that night someone decided that “Jump Around” was the song that they needed to sing to perfectly express how they were feeling. As the funky fresh beat started and the slurred lyrics were spoken, the two engaged in what would be one of the best-kept secrets in the history of parenthood. This record is expected to be surpassed, however, as an estimated seventy percent of incoming freshmen were conceived to the 1996 hit “Exhale (Shoop Shoop)” by Whitney Houston.
PRO TIPS
T-Shirts To Guarantee Your 4.0 Katie Wall wrote this
When you get down to it, college is about learning. However, sometimes it just doesn’t seem like it with so many crazy other things going on. Sometimes learning gets abandoned in the damp, dark, dreary basement of your heart. Fortunately, there is a way to make sure that learning remains your top priority, and it’s as simple as a t-shirt! Here’re a few that will keep your GPA at a 4.0. A Meninist T-Shirt
T-Shirt Pretending To Be A Tuxedo
Well-Fitted Cotton Tee
Button Up With A Sweater Over It
If you’re a boy, then this t-shirt is pretty straightforward. There’s nothing more distracting from your studies than relationship drama, and a meninist t-shirt will ensure that this is one distraction that you do not need to worry about. Not only will girls refuse to enter into a relationship with you, it is likely that they will want nothing to do with you whatsoever! Neat! If you’re a girl, then this t-shirt will have a similar effect in alienating your fellow women, who will see you as desperately trying to be, “the cool girl” and will be subsequently repulsed. Now girl time can become study time!
Wear this shirt to bring your GPA up in style. You might be thinking that wearing this tee might attract hordes of unwanted suitors, but you would be wrong. Alternatively, wearing this shirt will ensure that no matter where you are, no one will be bothering you and distracting you from your studies. People will see your formal wear and assume that you are doing something of the utmost importance. They might be a little afraid, and will certainly be too intimidated to talk to you. They will create several scenarios in their heads about what you might be up to. Are you a member of the FBI? Are you a runaway groom that got cold feet? Little do they know that what you are doing is walking your GPA up that aisle, and your feet aren’t cold at all.
This classic tee is a college essential, and anyone who is serious about their grades should own a plethora of well-fitted cotton t-shirts. It is unclear to me how one can properly concentrate on school without the peace of mind that a well-fitted cotton tee provides. Studies would probably show that GPA is directly proportional to the number of well-fitted cotton tees that a student owns. It’s just the way the world works. Well-fitted cotton tee.
We know what you’re thinking. “This is not a t-shirt! Why do I need this? Why do I need to wear two shirts at once?” It’s ok to have questions. This special shirt combination is the outfit of choice for professors. Use this knowledge to disguise yourself as a professor, hack into the mainframe, and change your grade to reflect your t-shirts. It’s that simple. No one suspects the individual in a nice shirt with a sweater over it.
Who knew a 4.0 could be so easy and so fashion-forward? Well, we did. It’s kind of why we wrote this article. Go get that 4.0 you so very much do not deserve.

THE TOP TEN
Ideas For Top 10 Lists SPECIALS ALL WEEK LONG!
Every issue, The Black Sheep gifts our readers another Top 10 list. Unfortunately, there is only so much space we get to fill, and lots of great ideas are left by the wayside. All we hear from readers is “What gems are we missing on the cutting room floor?” and “How do you manage to integrate your consumer-facing content aggregation into your two-way-communication paradigm?” Well, the answer to the first question is here! 10.) Top 10 Restaurants On Main Street: “There are so many!” you say. “How can you possibly pare it down to just ten?” Well, we did. “Was Chipotle on there?” You bet. “Sinclair’s?” Oh of course it was. “Cheeburger Cheeburger?” Sorry fans, but that was where we drew the line. 9.) Top 10 Places To Go For Spring Break: This one was packed to the brim with vacation suggestions, including Tijuana, Cancun, and An Eastern European Country Not Embroiled In Ethnic Turmoil At The Time Of Publication. We even threw in a shout-out for our friends at UDaB who, despite nonsensically making the “a” lowercase, do a lot of good. “UDaB is sure to stem off your guilt of privilege until next year’s UDaB trip!” we wrote. 8.) Top 10 Harker Quotes: You name’em, we had’em! Harker’s famous “The store is spacious and full of exciting products, and the staff was extremely helpful” about the UD Bookstore only made #5, which should give you some idea of how good this listicle was. 7.) Top 10 Majors: Our staff writers meticulously researched this topic for three months before discovering that it’s not the words on the degree that count – it’s the person holding it. 6.) Top 10 Favorite Game Of Thrones Characters: Nine out of our ten favorites died before we could go to print with this commentary on the pop culture phenomenon. We have declined to run it in subsequent issues for fear that the 10th character would be killed off, too. 5.) Top 10 Things To Do With A Boner Other Than Sex: We were having a lot of fun with this one before realizing another school had written it, and that it was one of the most popular articles The Black Sheep has ever run. We may come back to it later. 4.) Top 10 UD Stories From Last Year: From dumpster sex to Mizu rooftop sex to professor almost-sex, we compiled all the best stories from the past 365 days at the time of pitch. But all the sad things on it made us feel bad about going to UD so we opted to not use it. 3.) Top 10 Members Of Arcade Fire: Turns out there are only six members of Arcade Fire. We could’ve sworn it was like 30 when we were deciding article topics. 2.) Top 10 Classes At UD: Quick – do you have a favorite class at UD? So did we! So many, in fact, that the writing staff almost tore itself apart trying to pare the list down, breaking the bonds of friendship we had worked so hard to build. 1.) Top 10 Top 10 Lists About Top 10 Lists: While trying to figure out the logistics of this list we got stuck on a recursive loop and hurt our brains. Matt Roarty wrote this

NIC CAGE UNDERSTANDS YOUR FINALS STRUGGLES (AND SO CAN YOU!) Finals. What came to mind when you saw that word? Pain? Agony? Nicolas Cage? We know it probably wasn’t Nicolas Cage, but we’re here to tell you it should be. A cornerstone of the Hollywood scene for years, Nicolas Cage is known for his amazing feats of actoring, subtle emotional nuances, and most importantly, starring in really really great movies. But Nic is more than meets the eye; he’s a hidden gem filled with a lifetime of knowledge. While you may not fully understand the tornado of desperation that is finals, it might surprise you to know that Nic does, and he’s here to help.
- Molly Ade
Just thinking about finals is stressful, and stress can make you do crazy things, like get really high and steal a baby. When Nic gets stressed from screaming every word that comes out of his mouth, he too sometimes gets really high and steals a baby. It’s okay, the baby had an edible— he doesn’t even know what his fingers are right now.
That first look at a semester’s worth of notes is like the bubonic plague: no matter how hard you try, you won’t be able to avoid being bitten by a rat that’s been running around in street sewage because this is the 14th century and you don’t know what a toilet is. Did you follow that simile? Just looking at the overload of chunks of information squeezed between unidentifiable doodles makes you feel like you’ve somehow been put in a woman’s naked body in the shower while a bumble bee crawls on you and Gordon Ramsay threatens to kill you for overcooking the butternut squash.
Screw having time to de-grime, who has the time to workout during finals? Nic Cage doesn’t have the time to workout during finals. Just like you, Nic likes to tell people he’s working out and staying fit when really he’s just sitting on his couch mesmerized by whatever Lifetime movie is currently playing.
You’re free from that one-night stand that you swear never happened, but you’re not totally in the clear. Finals week isn’t a hangover immunity shield, and nothing makes your head and body hurt more than “The inner mitochondrial membrane is compartmentalized into numerous cristae, which expand the surface area of the inner mitochondrial membrane, enhancing its ability to produce ATP.” One eye is screaming from the brutal assault of library fluorescent lights. The other eye is confused because it comprehended 0% of that sentence. Your brain is smiling though. It’s still drunk and thinks your current inability to properly hold a pencil is hilarious.
The brain can only hold a finite amount of important information—like the sexual preferences of each famous philosopher for example—which means other, more common sense information—like your name or how to operate a microwave—is pushed out of the ol’ ear hole to make room for academia. Silly Nic, handcuffing your finger isn’t going to keep you attached to anything!
Sometimes during finals you’re assigned long, painful papers that seem like they’re never going to end. Sometimes you pour your heart and overly caffeinated soul into said treacherously long paper, only to realize you’ve written it on the completely wrong topic and you have 5 hours to do it all over again. When that time comes, it’s only natural to blink out every last little bit of soul you had in your eyes and just stare like you have the mental function of [insert name of Johnny Depp’s character] in [insert name of Johnny Depp movie].
Finals can bring out mixed emotions. You might be happy to be done with one class while still stressfully confused that you’ve still managed to learn nothing in an entire semester. No matter what you’re feeling, you should always be honest with your emotions. When Nic has mixed emotions he leaves them all out on the table. Sometimes he’s happy, sometimes he’s sad. Sometimes he has catstache, sometimes he does not have catstache.
You’re almost at the finish line, just one final to go, but you can’t help feeling like you’ve gained almost too much information in too short a timespan. Begrudgingly you decide you can’t study for your last final, not because you don’t want to, but because the slightest bit more knowledge could startle your bird hair into flying away.
Personal hygiene gets thrown out the window when there’s even a whiff of finals in the air; it’s the only time of year where all students band together to suffocate campus with B.O. stench and blind it with pedophilic pizza delivery guy mustaches. Looking back at pictures, you may be thinking, “What the actual fuck was I thinking?” but don’t be alarmed, Nic is too.
Spending days on end in the cold dungeon the administrators of death call “the library” can take a serious toll on a person. It’s okay to take one night to go out, let loose, and maybe hookup with the love of your life you just met 10 minutes ago. Unfortunately they’ll probably have leopard bed sheets, and more unfortunately the carpet will probably match the leopard drapes, but at least you’ll have a perfect getaway excuse! I’d love to stay and name our future children but the dungeon awaits me.
You’ve made it through finals—finally—but you’re not the same person you were when you started. You’ve gained new knowledge you’ll carry with you for the rest of the next two weeks, you’ve seen things a person should never have to see; if you looked in a mirror you’d barely recognize yourself. Nic goes through this transformation every time he churns out a motion picture for the ages. Is this a picture of an eagle? Yes. Is it also Nic Cage? Yes. Nicolas Cage is now a bird, and so can you.

Enchanting Bazaar of the Orient Mystically Appears Outside Perkins
Paul Mooney wrote this
On Thursday, a bewildering market of curiosity and wonder of the lands of the east and the exotic appeared suddenly outside Perkins. The market is selling trinkets and oddities of lands yonder, like incense sticks and blankets with Bob Marley’s face on it. The wonderful little bazaar -- undoubtedly part of a traveling caravan of traders from the lands of Siam, Arabia, Spencer’s Gifts, and the like sell such novelties as ancient puka shell necklaces and little sticks of wood with a hole in it that hold up your incense and catch all the ash. “Be careful of the fabled bazaar, for many of the holy items sold there are cursèd by the ancient black magic by which they are created,” said junior Jason Plath. “Also, the pipes are terrible and you have to suck extra hard. And like they’re not made for weed so you burn your fingers a lot
UD Commencement Speaker Spares Graduates Decision of Whether To Go To Commencement Matt Roarty wrote this
Following the University of Delaware’s announcement that alumnus David G. DeWalt would be giving the May 2015 commencement address, graduating students reportedly gave a large collective sigh of relief knowing that there would be no compelling reason to attend. just trying to spark it.” The market of curiosity offers such mythical relics as a tapestry of a Tree of Life, undoubtedly used for a pagan ceremony of conjuring a spirit in the less civilized parts of the world. There are also tapestries of dancing bears and a smiling Jerry Garcia, undoubtedly used for a Wednesday ceremony of smoking weed in the less civilized parts of south campus. The market included such wondrous mysteries as tradi-
tional Baja sweaters and tiedyed garments traditionally worn by Rastafarian shamans and Voodoo witch doctors. “What exotic curiosities are to be found here! Candles with three different colors? How amazing!” exclaimed freshman Ellie Crawford, who still gets excited by looking at the schlock sold in Hot Topic. The bazaar is expected to be gone whenever a westward wind blows it further along its path of trade, or when its vendor’s license runs out.
“Commencement will probably be super hot and I’d have to get up at like 7 a.m. for it, so I’m glad to know I won’t be missing anything,” said Daniel Ziegler, who will be receiving his B.A. in history. “Last year, with Biden, I would’ve felt like I had to go, ya know? So that was kinda thoughtful of UD.” Administration officials noted that they were excited for DeWalt, who is an expert on technology, cybersecurity, and mergers and acquisitions. “It’s great, because he’s just a big enough deal that it doesn’t seem like we phoned it in, but not so big that people feel like they’re missing out on something,” said Gil Sparks, chairman of the university’s Board of Trustees.
Other officials echoed Sparks’ sentiment. Jeff Garland, vice president and university secretary, told reporters that “when I first saw the picture, I thought ‘oh man, we got Scott Bakula!’ But then someone told me it was not Scott Bakula, which sucks for me – because I’m a huge Bakula guy – but is good for the students who can sleep in and party later. “I’m not even sure the graduates would know who Scott Bakula is, to be honest.”

Should You Wear Socks With Your Shoes? – An Experiment Tia Hill wrote this
It’s spring, and you know what that means – the socks are coming off. To aid in this transition, we decided to try wearing 5 different types of footwear without socks to find out which combos work and which don’t. We began our journey with a large bag with various pairs of shoes in it, foot cream, and a prayer. We also forgot to take photos while doing it, so we added them later. We’re professional!
Flip-Flops
Sperrys
Sneakers
Riding Boots
Anyone who even considers wearing socks with flip flops is probably a serial killer, so our decision to wear flip flops without socks was the natural thing to do. The walk was easy and breezy, toes were open, and the constant flow of fresh air kept things cool and comfortable. Sure, we had so little arch support that our feet felt flatter than the ground itself, but our toes also weren’t trapped in a casing of fabric and rubber, left to stew in their own scent for hours.
At the corner of Cleveland and North College, we changed shoes, sliding on a pair of Sperrys that we had bought back in high school when everyone wore them, before we realized that paying $70 for boat shoes isn’t worth it unless you have a boat, and even then not really. However, the water of a boat and the amount of liquid being produced by our foot at this point were about the same, and we must say that the Sperrys provided us with the best alternative to socks that any shoe could give. It blended the sweat into the fibers which made for smooth sailing.
Nike sneakers proved to be the opposite. We put on the sneakers and to get the full effect, we decided to go for a quick jog down South College to really get a feel for how athletes feel. Things went well here, we enjoyed ourselves, had plenty of arch support, kept cool and everything. It was not until we went to change our shoes for the next review that we smelled it: probably a mix between onions and a dead body, and yes, it was our feet. The smell was an expellable offense.
We managed to stay coherent long enough to slide on our riding boots. If your feet are looking for a rollercoaster experience, slide those sweaty things into a pair of riding boots. Not only are they high enough to constitute half of a pant leg, but we found ourselves sliding on the inside of our own boot while trying to walk down the street. The pool of sweat on the inside was absolutely ridiculous, a small creek of water had formed at the toe, and it felt like a family of sardines had already begun making a new life for themselves in its wetness.
Timberland Boots
GOD OH GOD NO WEAR SOME SOCKS THE HEAT THE HEAT IS JUST EXCRUCIATING IT FEELS LIKE SATAN DECIDED TO RENT A CONDO IN THE ENTIRETY OF BOTH SHOES AND THEN BURN THAT CONDO DOWN AT A TEMPERATURE OF WELL OVER TEN THOUSAND DEGREES. YOUR FEET WILL FEEL LIKE MINI HOT DOGS BEING SLOW ROASTED OVER A BOY SCOUTS CAMPFIRE. YOUR FEET WILL EVENTUALLY BE SO SOAKED FROM SWEAT THEY WILL SHRIVEL UP INTO LITTLE RAISINS AND DISAPPEAR, IF THEY HAVE NOT YET BEEN BURNT TO A CRISP AFTER FIVE MINUTES OF STEWING IN A CESSPOOL OF HEAT AND PERSPIRATION.
As a now-professional shoe reviewer, we can see absolutely no reason not to wear socks with shoes. Do you hate yourself? We would too if our feet were constantly that sweaty. Dress appropriately, and you’ll save lives, toes, and nostrils.
