Acrowinners!

Acrowinners? Damn, I was beginning to wonder if we'd have acroplayers. I'm starting to worry about the low turnouts lately...are yall getting tired of this? Do I need to spread the games out? Change nights? Dispense altogether?

Anyway, we got some entries, we have a judge, and let's get right to the good part. This week's letters were M E O A L. The entries:

*My electives? Operatic Aerobics, Lathing.
*Minimally edible options at lunch.
*Maleficence existed openly. And lockers.
*Marijuana encounters, often after lunch.
*Million "eruptions" observed. Acne's legacy
*Math. Everyday, only Algebra lessons
*Man, every one always lies.
*Mocked everyday on account'a loafers.
*Me, eating oreos, alone, lonely.
*Makeup exams, only after laziness
*Moronic essays, opining about literature.
*Miniscule ego. Openly abused. Lambasted.

And now without further ado, here is the Friar himself to do the honors:

Well, people, it’s damn slim pickin’s. (First apostrophe indicates a contraction. Second one indicates a missing “g.” Remember sophomore grammar? [I obviously don’t.])

What the hell is this? A boycott? A girlcott? A transcott? Don’t tell me the rest of you regulars actually liked high school. We’re not having any of that around here.

Whatever.

Honorable mention, teen angst division: Msagro for “Million "eruptions" observed. Acne's legacy”, but watch your terminal punctuation there. The lack of it nearly got points taken off.

Honorable mention, cafeteria division: Mike for “Minimally edible options at lunch.” So true. So sad. So true.

But the winner for absolutely capturing the spirit of the category: Stennie for “Man, every one always lies.” Truer words about high school were never typed.

And so no one leaves the room unrewarded, a special nick-of-time award to Lily G. for getting her entry time stamped one minute before the deadline.

Thanks for playing. See ya.

Thanks, DFF, for judging and topicing. If anyone would like to partake of the honors for next week (if there is one), please let me know now. Bye!
