Groundhog day

It wouldn't be spring if the headlines about the dangers of the high school students' graduating ceremonies (russens knuteregler) didn't start to pop up. Like here, here and here. A list of the requirements for the various "trophies" (russeknuteregler) can be found here (Norwegian only).

So; Mr. Medical Expert Guy: Is it really true that guzzling large amounts of alcohol within a short period of time while also being in a state of sleep-deprivation could be bad fo' yo' health? Say it ain't so......

On a side note, I notice upon reading the requirements that an exorbitant number of trophies/knuter can be had by having sex with the members of the organizing committee (Russens Hovedstyre). It's like the list was specifically designed to get the committee members laid. Nothing new in that, but strictly from a Darwinian point of view, this enduring trend strongly points to the committee members having no game whatsoever, but rather are forced to seek alternative means of increasing odds of reproducing. Beta individuals who tricked the system - like hyenas with Uzis.

Yeah, must be a slow news week, since all three major papers had almost identical stories...

..OK - I take your word for it. What with you being the resident expert on rap and afro-american culture and all

Anders said...

My knowledge of rap and urban african-american sub-culture is only eclipsed by my expertise in true melodic metal...

Ok. I'll confess that 95% of my rap knowledge comes from Rocky. This one included. And you being the main source for last 5%....

...but I'll never admit that in public!
