"This accounts for the unusually high number of choking deaths during that period."

Well, it is called the service desk. She probably thought they'd do her laundry for her, too.

Girl: Do you, like, have hair elastics here?
Librarian: No, but we have regular elastics. Is that okay?
Girl: Um, well yeah, I guess.
Librarian: (to other librarian) Did she really think we had hair elastics for students at the service desk?

Overheard on the Road: University of Guelph

Girl #1: Really, you're taking a "Serial Murder" course?
Girl #2: Yeah, it's pretty interesting. And useful. We won trivia night at the Brass Taps last night - they asked how many people you have to kill to officially be labeled a serial killer.
Girl #3: How many do you have to kill?
Girl #2: Three.
Girl #3: Really?! I always thought it would be more like... SEVENTEEN or something!!!
Girl #1: Do you really think that after the first sixteen you're not a serial killer yet?

Sausage: Preferred by Nine out of Ten Drunk Frat Boys

Girl #1: I picked up this guy last night and we were trying to get a cab to go back to my place. Well, he sees the street meat guy and gets all excited and goes to buy a hot dog or something. I finally got us a cab, but he was waiting in line to get his hot dog. He told me to take the cab and he'll call me sometime. I got fuckin' ditched for street meat!
Girl #2: Haha, you tried to take home a guy that would rather put a sausage in his mouth than put his in yours!
