Maybe this person is old enough that he actually got a lot of people wondering, or maybe he was just asked a few times during high school. One way or another, he couldn’t come up with anything better for his senior yearbook quote, so Egor Krylkov decided to head all the whispers off at the pass.
We’d expect more people to pretend to have humps and hobble around, acting as if they are helping a mad scientist go about his world-changing work. Egor – more commonly spelled “Yegor” is a name from Russia, but it’s also from Belarus and Ukraine. A more common form is Igor, the classic helper of the Gothic scientist who is dabbling in things not meant for man to trifle with. But he looks pretty standard here. Maybe the hump comes in later.
It's Not Required or Anything
There are a lot of people required to dress a certain way, but it turns out that this gal isn’t one of them. No, she’s just doing it because she knows that if she dressed the same way as all the other girls, none of them would get any attention from the studs walking the halls. They would only have eyes for her, and she just couldn’t bear the weight of all that attention.
Plus, she wanted to do something nice for all the other girls in school with her. Speaking seriously, it takes a good bit of confidence to talk about something that might be compulsory for her in such a witty, irreverent manner. There’s a small chance she could get some chastising for saying such a thing, but we’re proud of her being able to say something funny.
Well, Sure, We All Do
Really, who doesn’t like a bit of rice? As the late, great Mitch Hedberg once said, rice is great when you’re hungry and want to eat two thousand of something. There are countries all over the world that rely on rice to provide a bulk of their calories, and it goes along with so many other foods.
It’s great in Mexican food, Spanish food, and Asian food of all kinds. Put it in curry or chili. Simply make a bed of it and put anything you want on top of there. It’s great! Now that’s out of the way, Let’s talk about Edward Kang’s reasoning for including a quote like this. He was probably just having a little bit of fun at his own expense, while not even telling an untruth.
Ready to Get Out of There
There are some people who just don’t recognize how good they have it while they’re in high school. They often don’t have to worry about where their meals are coming from, where they’re going to sleep at night, plus things like taxes, jobs, and all that fun stuff. They just know that they have to sit and listen to somebody drone on about the New Deal or something like that.
They don’t realize that they’re going to have to take a lot more agency once they’re out, and agency is hard work. Just look at Kayla, who was probably a member of the theater clique, but she just couldn’t work up the nerve to have an interest – even a fake one – in some of her classes. Well, maybe college was better.
Take a Little Bit of Investigating
So Sarah decided to not leave a real quote, but a specific time of a specific episode of “Spongebob Squarepants” in her senior yearbook. If you happen to take a look at exactly the time she posted, it’s a still of Spongebob pointing at graffiti on a table that reads “Skool is 4 chumps.”
No doubt Spongebob, who loves school in the show, doesn’t agree with this assessment, but it seems that it’s the only thing Sarah could think of when asked to put something in the yearbook before walking out the doors forever. We get the sentiment, but the fact that some of the words are misspelled in the graffiti should maybe come as a warning sign. Hopefully, Sarah already knew how to spell.
