Hallway Chatter

The Omega staff listened to student conversations in the hallway and selected ones that “best” described our student population.
Ω “Derrick Rose wasn’t even important until he hurt his knee again.”
Ω “I went to the nurse because I stapled my thumb. It’s a sharp sting, but it doesn’t hurt that much.”
Ω “It’s not like the ACT means anything anyway.”
Ω “I think I’m going to end up selling my organs on the black market so I can pay for my prom dress.”
Ω “If I had to give up all my fingers except one, I think I would keep the middle finger so I can still talk to people.”
Ω ”I want to be one of those people that fixes dogs.”
