Seriously, I'm just telling you guys so you know once you begin big-boy school: People judge you, ok? They judge you. Like, when I see some kid with acne or dirty clothes, I think "immature...ugly...homeless--ew!" Wake up, you're professionals! I mean, look up the Butterfly Effect if you don't believe me. This is real and observed.

Calm down, guys. I made this design for fun in response to dproduct's comment.

In any case, no one's asking you to wear this to work or a professional environment. Would I wear this to my job at a law firm? No. Would I wear it at home or at the beach? Probably. Anecdotal, but people wore similar tanks all the time at my UG and yet it's still considered a top school. You guys are overthinking or I'm just spoiled by the West Coast...

I think they may be issuing scholarships first... but according to LSN graphs, there is a steady trickle of admissions from February onward.

dproduct took over the thread and established a dictatorship. Ultimately he was forced to bow to popular opinion. I never doubted him for a second.

The end.

tl;dr teiswei got all crazy about parents going with students to ASD and the thread got a little crazy

THANK YOU. I was on a plane when that debacle happened. Everything makes sense now.

The whole thing makes for a good, humorous read in retrospect. You should go back and check it out. It won't disappoint!
