Our Charming Predecessors

Oh, wow. While anxiously and one-handedly Googling stuff like "ivy league blog," hoping to see our yearling site turn up in the results, we came across IvyLeagueBlog.com. Title: "Poverty Sucks"; subtitle: "A blog for the unashamed." Here's the charming first post:

You are fortunate enough to have stumbled across IvyLeagueBlog.com, a blog like no other. 

It is for those who can sympathize with or are interested in people like myself who lead a better quality of life.  It is not an apologist blog, and maybe not for those who cannot understand the need (and can afford) to buy a $4,000 Italian suit for OCI's (On campus interviews for those not in the know).

This site it what it is ladies and gentlemen.  If you despise this way of life...well...poverty sucks, doesn't it?

Followup items include "Heading to the Hamps" (doesn't this guy know the cool kids call it H-town now?) and a recap of an impromptu trip to the Oscars. Mercifully, the blog then died, as so many do, but not before one "Marc" added this comment:

Any Yale grads besides me? Ivy League is everything - before I went Ivy I was a financial analyst with J&J. Know what that gets you? $40,000 and a Taurus.

An Ivy education not only pays well, but its the ultimate aphrodisiac - I can go into any club, drop the Y-bomb, and go home with whatever gorgeous kitten I desire. Whats not to like?

Shout out to my brother Sig Delts!

Blogging about the Ivies sure puts us in some gooood company, don't it? From now on, every reader gets issued a handgun, so we can be sure we'll be shot and killed if we ever inch close to that kind of repellence.
