The College Newspaper That's Actually About College

Wildcat HashTags BY: Shauntionne Mosley Hashtags started on Twitter but ended up on every social network, college newspaper, conversation, pick up line, you name it. But wait, has anyone thought about a hashtag specifically for the greatest school in the history of all higher education institutions? Let’s try some hashtags, Wildcat style.
#BigBlueSadness:
Whether we win or lose there’s nothing better than a University of Kentucky sporting event. When you’re surrounded by national talent, rockstar coaches, and enormous football players you can’t help but to get in the spirit. This spirit can make any wildcat’s blue blood run straight to their head causing them to do things they usually don’t do. Like make out with a Louisville fan, drink too much at the tailgate and not make it to Commonwealth Stadium, or just forget to wear their lucky blue underwear at the basketball lottery.
#KentuckySuckery:
Now although we do love our athletes, we can’t help but get a little jealous seeing them get personally chauffeured across campus. Sure, getting commercial ads, photo ops, and pulling the finest of felines can put stress on anybody, but we think if you can bulldoze a 300 pound monster lineman, yo ass can walk. Construction sites pop up like pimples on this campus and having to create a new detour every other week isn’t fun. Sure would be nice if we had a golf cart with a personal chauffeur wheeling us around campus.
#HideYourKidsHideYourSwipes:
The year you decide not to get a meal plan is the year UK decides to allow swipes for all places worth eating on campus. Even Intermezzo takes meal swipes now. Now you find an excuse to start up conversation with that freshman in your class in hopes they’ll take pity on your broke and hungry soul.
#BasicKitty:
We love the “fresh off your friends’ bathroom floor” look but we think it’s getting a little old. Your sorority sweater is cute but you’re not fooling anyone by pairing it with your leggings fresh from your dirty laundry basket. You think that Playboy voted us the hottest campus by walking around and seeing y’all walk around here all stank?
#Wildcatootd:
Finally, it’s fall and we’re ready for all things that come with this colorful season. What’s better than fall fashion? However, we’re starting to think people aren’t paying close enough attention to their #ootd and this is upsetting our more fashion-forward journalist. This campus has every variety of weird that you can think of so if we can guess what you’re going to wear to class every other day, you obviously need to switch it up a bit, or just stop wearing the same K-Week shirt and Wildcat plaid pajama pants every other day. Wildcat outfit of the day is a very important hasthag, if only to help us realize how painfully similar we all look. Like it or not these hashtags are here to stay. They can make any post just a tad bit better, and the Twitter nation will have a better understanding of what is trending here at UK, even if it’s how god damn jealous students are of the athletes and their stupid scooters.
