http://forum.collegetimes.us/tags/funny College Forum to discuss admissions, financial aid, SAT prep, Greek organizations, campus clubs, politics, etc. en-US Thu, 09 Feb 2012 06:43:55 +0000 http://bbpress.org/?v=1.0.3 q http://forum.collegetimes.us/search.php http://forum.collegetimes.us/topic/hilarious-college-application-essay#post-1256 Fri, 18 Dec 2009 15:52:22 +0000 Anonymous 1256@http://forum.collegetimes.us/ <p>IN ORDER FOR THE ADMISSIONS STAFF OF OUR COLLEGE TO GET TO KNOW YOU, THE APPLICANT, BETTER, WE ASK THAT YOU ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTION: ARE THERE ANY SIGNIFICANT EXPERIENCES YOU HAVE HAD, OR ACCOMPLISHMENTS YOU HAVE REALIZED, THAT HAVE HELPED TO DEFINE YOU AS A PERSON?</p> <p>I am a dynamic figure, often seen scaling walls and crushing ice. I have been known to remodel train stations on my lunch breaks, making them more efficient in the area of heat retention. I translate ethnic slurs for Cuban refugees, I write award-winning operas, I manage time efficiently. Occasionally, I tread water for three days in a row.</p> <p>I woo women with my sensuous and godlike trombone playing, I can pilot bicycles up severe inclines with unflagging speed, and I cook Thirty Minute Brownies in twenty minutes. I am an expert in stucco, a veteran in love, and an outlaw in Peru.</p> <p>Using only a hoe and a large glass of water, I once single-handedly defended a small village in the Amazon Basin from a horde of ferocious army ants. I play bluegrass cello, I was scouted by the Mets. I am the subject of numerous documentaries. When I'm bored, I build large suspension bridges in my yard. I enjoy urban hang gliding. On Wednesdays, after school, I repair electrical appliances free of charge.</p> <p>I am an abstract artist, a concrete analyst, and a ruthless bookie. Critics worldwide swoon over my original line of corduroy evening wear. I don't perspire. I am a private citizen, yet I receive fan mail. I have been caller number nine and won the weekend passes. Last summer I toured New Jersey with a traveling centrifugal-force demonstration. I bat .400. My deft floral arrangements have earned me fame in international botany circles. Children trust me.</p> <p>I can hurl tennis rackets at small moving objects with deadly accuracy. I once read Paradise Lost, Moby Dick, and David Copperfield in one day and still had time to refurbish an entire dining room that evening. I know the exact location of every food item in the supermarket. I have performed covert operations for the CIA. I sleep once a week; when I do sleep, I sleep in a chair. While on vacation in Canada, I successfully negotiated with a group of terrorists who had seized a small bakery. The laws of physics do not apply to me.</p> <p>I balance, I weave, I dodge, I frolic, and my bills are all paid. On weekends, to let off steam, I participate in full-contact origami. Years ago I discovered the meaning of life but forgot to write it down. I have made extraordinary four-course meals using only a Mouli and a toaster oven. I breed prizewinning clams. I have won bullfights in San Juan, cliff-diving competitions in Sri Lanka, and spelling bees at the Kremlin. I have played Hamlet, I have performed open-heart surgery, and I have spoken with Elvis.</p> <p>But I have not yet gone to college.</p> <p>[i]From Harper's: "This essay, by Hugh Gallagher, won first prize in the humor category of the 1990 Scholastic Writing Awards. It appeared in the May issue of Literary_Calvalcade, a magazine of contemporary fiction and student writing published by Scholastic in NYC. Gallagher, who is 18, grew up in Newtown Square, PA, and will attend NYU this fall."[/i] </p> http://forum.collegetimes.us/topic/videos-of-people-making-a-fool-of-themselves#post-1175 Fri, 20 Nov 2009 00:50:39 +0000 Anonymous 1175@http://forum.collegetimes.us/ <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTYA9DYK6J4" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTYA9DYK6J4</a> </p> http://forum.collegetimes.us/topic/college-colosseum-joins-collegetimes#post-1102 Wed, 14 Oct 2009 01:07:32 +0000 Anonymous 1102@http://forum.collegetimes.us/ <p>hey, that&#39;s awesome news! </p> http://forum.collegetimes.us/topic/college-colosseum-joins-collegetimes#post-1094 Fri, 02 Oct 2009 22:39:04 +0000 Anonymous 1094@http://forum.collegetimes.us/ <p>agreed with karamel.....i&#39;m personally the uses credit cards and falls in a financial ditch ahahahahah...man I shouldn&#39;t be laughing about that :( </p> http://forum.collegetimes.us/topic/college-colosseum-joins-collegetimes#post-1089 Fri, 02 Oct 2009 22:06:56 +0000 Anonymous 1089@http://forum.collegetimes.us/ <p>Well, the writing on your website is pretty funny, so maybe an introductory/humorous piece that showcases the three most common types of student money management in college. Like, &quot;#1 uses a credit card and invests&quot;etc. I&#39;d be interested in seeing the common mistakes or strengths that college students do with their money. Or maybe the pitfalls and pluses of owning a student credit card (which I saw some similar topics on your site). </p> http://forum.collegetimes.us/topic/college-colosseum-joins-collegetimes#post-1083 Fri, 02 Oct 2009 11:39:51 +0000 Anonymous 1083@http://forum.collegetimes.us/ <p>Haha, sure, I&#39;d love to contribute an article!
