I thoroughly enjoyed/agree with this list. Especially:

Men are only good for sex
Rich white people are evil
It may be better for me to become a lesbian
Who needs sitcoms when one has the incident report
Pre-gaming is not a sports term
Anything can be a phallic symbol if you really want it to be (especially with my mind)

"You can write a serious academic paper with curse words in it" Is this from experience? Because I sure hope so.

"Watching Desperate Housewives makes you a heathen, but it's ok if you watch Extreme Home Makeover beforehand" made me giggle a whole lot. I've never watched Desperate Housewives but I can see how Hope College could view it.

And yes. Bananas freak out when refrigerated. It's strange.

Like in what context? Like quoting or just because? Either way, that's marvelous. I didn't know you were a big cusser. I definately have become one!

Well, it was a discussion on the meaning of lyrics to certain rap songs. Sample sentence: Other songs of similar content, like NWA’s “Fuck the Police”, released in 1988, and Bob Marley’s “I Shot the Sheriff” (though Marley doesn’t have quite the affinity for the word fuck, the songs are thematically linked) didn’t cause much of a stir and can still be purchased in retail stores.

Well, it could be worse and you could have wrote something like, "The music that is made by Bob Marley is fucking incredible". That would be kind of wonderful.
