Some may think that this was a savage prank pulled on poor…Marbury? Is his name Marbury? Poor guy. But, it’s far more likely that Sam and Marbury worked together to make this gag in the senior yearbook. Did Marbury just continue on with the test using only a pop-tart? We’re going to guess no.
When did Sam and his rapscallion friends have a chance to exchange a calculator for a breakfast food? How did Marbury not notice the swap taking place? Did he eat the pop-tart once he found out? How old was it? It’s far more likely that these two came up with a fun little joke to play on people who would open the yearbook later on. It’s not such a bad idea now that we think about it.
It's Time to Go on an Adventure
Not everybody can get away with including a quote from the doctor on his or her senior yearbook photo. It has to be the right one, and it will be even better if it isn’t one of the ones that everybody knows (at least among people that have watched the show, anyway).
This one isn’t bad, even if it does leave a little bit of confusion who might not get the reference. Still, it’s a lot cooler than some of the other choices (bow ties, anyone?). It has a certain amount of, what’s the word, energy to it? It’s dynamic. It’s got juice. It makes it seem like this kid is going to go places, even if those places are a little more dangerous than you might think.
Another Entry into the Young Adult Fiction Genre
For those of us who are a little older, it can be strange seeing how much the younger generations use social media. It seems like every hour of the day they’ve posted a new status on X (once Twitter) or uploaded a new video of themselves on Instagram. And let’s not even get into Tik Tok. Daniela Shatzki seems to think that the stuff she posted online is good enough to be made into a paperback.
Was she posting deep thoughts about the state of our world? Fun pictures that show the Earth’s natural beauty? We don’t know, there’s no book yet. Once it gets published, we’ll be happy to get a copy and then not read it, just like all the other books we get. No, no, it’s not true, we could never not read a book.
A Pair of Quotes That Might Just Work Together
Jonathan Deloso gives us a pair of quotes that mesh in a certain way. The first is from writer George R. R. Martin, the man behind the “A Song of Ice and Fire” book series, and one of the creative minds behind the “Game of Thrones” show. The second one is from the Good Book itself, and both of them have to do with finding the people (or non-people) that will join up with him for life.
The first is about the friends that will lock shields when the battle gets tough (though rarely does this involve actual battle) and the second is with the Lord God Almighty, who will also be there to help during everything else. Amazing that quotes from two totally dissimilar sources can go together so well.
Putting the Rumors to Rest
While it’s possible that these two didn’t come up with a two-person senior quote (like some of the other examples that are found on this list) it’s pretty clear that was the intent. “I like my X like I like my Y” jokes are a classic construction that is able to adapt to almost anything you want to do.
It seems like these two guys were pointing out their orientation in what was supposed to be a funny way, but the execution was a little mishandled. Now, if Eduardo had said that “WE like OUR girls how WE Like OUR coffee,” then things would have been a lot smoother. Armani had the right idea. This was almost great, but as it stands it probably just ended up confusing people who weren’t in on the facts already.
