Although the support is nice.

(two guys are discussing how Guy 1’s girlfriend bought him a gift)
Guy 1: Sure it’s a nice gift. I pretty much got her the exact same thing though.
Guy 2: Reciprocating gifts just doesn’t work. I mean, my mom wouldn’t go off and buy me a bra.

Girl: “Why didn’t anybody bring their laptops?”
Guy: “Uhh.. it’s easier to write stuff down…”
Girl: “No I mean it’s so weird to be in a class where nobody is checking Facebook!”

♪I’d rather be retarded than a fucking bumblebee…♪

Prof: Now, I don’t want to generalize about people with Down’s Syndrome. Some people with Down’s have actually managed to complete university.
