Yay verily, I live.

Ah finals. Gone for now, but like the Herp, they shall soon rear their nasty little heads again.

I have a few things to comment about, regarding my finals, and post finals experiences.

But I won't.

Instead I'll focus on Halloween parties.

A few don'ts for those that care.

1. Slutty costume for a GIRL: Yay. Slutty costume for a GUY: Nay. Big freaking nay.
Unless, of course, you are going as Dr. Frankenfurter.

2. Size matters. If you are a size 46, please don't try to cram into a size two. Consider the following exchange:

guy 1: "what is the girl in the red and black supposed to be?"
guy 2: "I think she may be a saloon girl, crossed with a bratwurst"

Just be yourself. And if that self works much better as a size 46 saloon girl, be a size 46 saloon girl. Not a barely contained size 2 saloon sausage.

3. Catty comments. If you show up to a party, say as a dirty pirate hooker, and there happens to be another dirty pirate hooker at the party, I advise you not to make a comment to that other dirty pirate hooker that goes like this: "well at least I'm the hottest dirty pirate hooker at the party". Why? Because it's mean, and from a practical standpoint, before saying something like that, you should actually be the better looking dirty pirate hooker. And you weren't. Not even close.

4. Boxer briefs and fishnets. This only applies to girls. Ethan, you looked crazy hot.

5. Drunken canoodling. This is unacceptable. We have standards here at Baylor. One must only engage in quasi-drunken canoodling. This is the zone where inhibitions have been lowered, yet performance has been enhanced, not diminished. Men, know your limitations.

That's all for now.

I have to read the intro and first Chapter of "getting to Yes" for Osler.
