Title: We're #1 Douchiest School In America!
Post by: Roy 82 on July 22, 2011, 08:56:37 PM
Hey, it is good to be numero uno in something:
http://www.gq.com/entertainment/humor/201108/douchiest-colleges-america-2011#slide=10

I have degrees from two of these schools (although for MIT, I think they confuse douchitude with nerditude) and attended many classes at a third. I wonder what this fact might imply about me.::uhoh::

BTW, I got this info from "French Rage" who apparently, now that he has a girlfriend and Stanford finally has a decent football team, doesn't find a need to go on eLynah everyday during the summer.

We fared better than the photo of the Bennington student (http://www.gq.com/entertainment/humor/201108/douchiest-colleges-america-2011#slide=4) or the text on Pepperdine ("Life Goals: Stay celibate until marriage; buy a townhouse in Newport Beach; convert all gays; meet someone with the "three Hs: hot, humble, and holy" ). And it is good to be #1 in something.

That's a very douchy rebuttal, actually.

The real rebuttal is: Duke isn't on the list, unless it's assumed they are a metaphysical, ur-Godhead, zeroth douchiest school.

Duke was no. 2 in 2009 with this explanation: "They're probably number one. But we'd rather not rank Duke number one at anything."

edit: I don't think any of the schools from the old list are on the current list so the glass-half-full position could be we're really 26th.

So basically, we won the NIT of douchitude.

We're also (according to the always accurate Huffington Post) one of the 8 "preppiest" colleges in the country: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/02/09/the-preppiest-colleges-in-the-us_n_1266748.html#s680688&title=Cornell

I guess this is better than being douchey.
