  • Somebody slipped me a 12 pack.

  • GMO’s!

  • Thought there was someone under the burning mattress.

  • Limited time special on pad se-lew at the Pho Saigon Star restaurant.

  • Closest intersection on my way to library.

  • Sure, he/she might ‘look like me’ but I was so drunk – I couldn’t stand after the game.

  • Tired of seeing Boone on TV – “We had to take a stand!”

  • Looks like Rockies fans to me – They finally beat Clayton Kershaw!

  • Trying desperately to stop Apple from getting rid of the headphone jack.

  • Chance for Divest DU to test their new cold-fusion super mattress collider to provide clean energy for the campus and the world.
