Fuck This!

From Exam Time

OK, I know that it’s exam time, that McLennan is the place to be, and that perhaps it is a little naive to arrive at 1 p.m. on the first day of exams and expect to find a spot.... But seriously, if you don’t need a plug, don’t sit in the only seat near one and don’t use a desk that has one! There are plenty of plug-free spots for you to sit in (that are empty I might add), yet you think you’re entitled to sit in a spot that has a plug.

Why?

Because of you, there are students sitting in the hallways of the library trying to write essays. There are students who are sitting on the floor so that they can plug in their laptop while you sit at a desk with your coursepack and unused plug.

McGill needs to wake up and realize we live in the 21st century, but until then (which, judging by this school’s track record, will be a long time coming), let’s work together. If you don’t need a plug, go sit somewhere else.

Learn how to fucking spell

‘Our’ not ‘or’. honour, labour, neighbour, colour, flavour, just to name a few. We’re living and studying in Canada, so get the fucking spelling right. Professors included.
