Listomania: Reasons You Will Not Have a Second Date

by Elizabeth McGinn on February 11, 2021


Features


Forgot to wipe

Didn’t show up

Brought your mom as a chaperone

Talked about your 12 cats

Mentioned the spider that whispers sweet nothings into your ear

Confessed your love for Father Shanley

Knew too much personal information

Asked for their banner ID instead of their phone number

Communicated solely via PC Mobile

Thought they resembled Mitch McConnell

Said they smell like your mom

Brought your date home to your Lightning McQueen race car bed

Ordered off the kid’s menu

Dined and dashed

Ordered chocolate milk at the bar

Brought your guitar (and already wrote a song about them)

Said “I love you”

Asked them to be your entree à la Armie Hammer

Listomania: Reasons to drop a class during add/drop period

by Elizabeth McGinn on February 4, 2021


Features


My ex is in it

It’s hard

My professor gives A’s starting at 94 instead of 93

It has pop quizzes

The textbook is too heavy for me to carry

It’s a non lab-based class with a lab

Someone has already tried to ask me out

It meets in-person

My professor is too hot to handle

It’s at 8:30 a.m.

I’m the only one who signed up

I used up all my excused absences already

My professor doesn’t socially distance

The person I sit next to thinks their mask is a chinstrap

Someone took my unassigned assigned seat
