Stupid signs project

I got weird and hyper and then sick Tuesday night. This is what I did with the hyper - there have been some annoying signs going up around campus recently, which look like this:

Honor. Pride. Passion.

They went up in waves over a few days, with "Honor" the first day, then "Pride," then "Passion."

Leaving work Tuesday night, I started thinking genius thoughts, and went back to my room and made some better signs. I finished them in about an hour, and went back to the library all brimming with enthusiasm to print them out and apprise Jenan (working the desk) of my plans. She was not entirely enthusiastic, and concerned by my energy at the (to her) late hour of 1:15 AM. Bah, I said. I went out cheerfully in the damp and taped signs up. Sometime later, logical deduction tells me, I must have gone to bed, though my memory of this time is imperfect.

Anyway. My signs:

Punctuation."

Times New Roman. Courier New.

Evil. I mean... EVIL.

Bread. Apples. Very Small Rocks.

Abstract Concepts. People Covered In Fish.

(The last couple of sets I was careful to put up in and around the Computer Science building, as I felt I could not rely on their being understood elsewhere.)

The "Very Small Rocks" makes me giggle. What a wonderful concept. It makes me glad that my campus doesn't have anything as obnoxious as that. [No, we get hellfire and brimstone preachers - much more entertaining.]

Ack, it does sound like something the army would say - kind of like those inspirational posters they always have in high school guidance offices. XD

'Red Bull Mole'? At Hollins they drive a truck with a giant can on top and wear tshirts and refrigerated bags with the logo on them. Which is not very mole-like. Is it the same thing?

But I don't mind them except when they refuse to give me more than one free can. Then I must recruit others to get them for me.

Wow. That's genuinely funny stuff... I got a good giggle out of it, anyway.

The "Evil" set is AWESOME.
