» Petty Sabotage
Student halls...
A haven for petty satobage.
The best one we've managed so far has to be the numbers...
The lift in our tower is 1960s, so the only way to tell which floor you're arriving at is to look at the painted on number on the wall outside. Most people though don't even look at the number before they get out.
We felt it was necessary to take photos of the numbers from all of the floors, print these out, and glue them over the existing numbers. But in the wrong order! So you'd get in, punch your floor number, either stare at the floor or absent-mindedly chat, get out, walk a few steps...then slowly wonder what 10th floor was doing so close to the ground :D
The next logical step was to replace the ROOM numbers accordingly. Complaints of broken room locks ensued as people unwittingly attempted to break into other people's rooms hahaha!
They never caught us :P

» I just don't get it
McDonalds: a different perspective.
I don't care why people eat it.
BUT
Have you ever experimented, taking one of their burgers apart and trying the different bits separately? As it comes, sure, they taste pretty good. However, a breakdown of the different elements paints a very different picture:
Bun: Half soggy, half bone-dry. Tastes like reformed vomit. Seems to have been made with a great deal of contempt for the consumer.
Ketchup/mustard/onion/gherkin like mass: Tastes very very wrong on its own. On a par with a breadless and meatless sandwich.
Beef: 'Singed flesh formerly used as wet flannel'.
Try it, you'll see.
