Fun with Facebook: Meet the Class of 2012, the Douchiest Class in History

Fun with Facebook: Meet the Class of 2012, the Douchiest Class in HistoryCertain things: death, taxes, pre-frosh baring their innermost secrets on Faceook, never seem to get old. Remember back when the now-esteemed Class of 2011 discussed their favorite drinks with the world (consensus: beer is gross, but foreign beer is like okay)?

Well, members of the Class of 2012 are not so different than their intrepid predecessors: they still like to talk about how much they love mojitos and margaritas and that "jager = good taste" (!!!!) and that they hate beer because it "smells funny and looks kind of funny too."

Indeed, worried that Princeton is for squares, Mary-Jane Smith (what a clever pseudonym!) writes in:

One Yalie on how "funny" life can be:

omg its so funny. like i got accepted here, but waitlisted at harvard and princeton. i mean what the fuck

After the jump: the academic records you never wanted to see.
