Fake News Friday: With finals almost here, no one is getting laid at UW-Madison

was the evenings before Finals, when all through the halls. Creatures were stirring, but no booty calls. The homeworks were done with speed without care, the presence of Finals loomed in the air.

The students were crammed into cubbies in White; No one throughout campus was getting laid tonight. The girls in their pjs and guys in their sweats, yet not a student was going home yet.

When down the corridor arose a Badger in red. “F*** off Bucky” the students all said “We have calculus to study, biology, and english. We can’t dance with you now, we have homework to finish!”

The sun was out shining, the weather was clear. Yet, sundress season was nowhere near. When what to their eyes should appear, but a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny reindeer. 

Or at least they’d wish it, but nothing occurred. There was no cheer here, just halls full of nerds. Elsewhere in town bartenders stood still, in front of empty rooms which were usually filled. 

Everclear and Smirnoff will stay shelved tonights, in hopes of better days and of better times. But for now we all hunker down in a studious fervor, attending to homework that seems to take forever. 

As the sun creeps o’er Mendota, the students all sigh. All throughout campus there were no victories tonight. But you can hear them exclaim as they stammer outside. “uhhh ughg ughghhhh ughgh uhhhh.”
