I love and fear the Microsoft Man.

5 Things That Will Happen if the Microsoft Man Comes to Live in Your House
Sean Concannon

The Microsoft Man is roughly 7 feet tall, and smells vaguely of formaldehyde. He wears clothing in the Four Microsoft Colors. The Microsoft Man's face is impossible to discern, and he does not appear in photos or reflection. I am afraid of the Microsoft Man, but I am also in love with him. The Microsoft Man came to live in my house with me, and it was a time that was beautiful and terrifying for me. These are the things that will happen if the Microsoft Man comes to live in your house.


1. The Microsoft Man will consume all of your juice

It does not matter what kind of juice you have, although I suspect He prefers orange juice. The Microsoft Man is constantly consuming juice at all hours of the day and night. I purchased several dozen gallons of juice per day, so that the Microsoft Man would stay contented.

2. All operating systems will be replaced with Windows ME.

The Microsoft Man is very generous, and he comes to you bringing gifts. All of the electronic devices in your home, be they computer, phone, or microwave, are now all running Windows Millennium Edition. This is a beautiful gift from the Microsoft Man, and you should be extremely thankful. Although it may cause problems for you initially, you will soon grow to love it as I did.

3. A low humming will be heard

When the Microsoft Man comes, you will hear the low humming throughout your home. It will permeate to every room, every corridor, every drawer of the home. it is inescapable. The humming cannot be simply be ignored, and you will always notice its presence. It will bury itself into your skull, and it will become part of you. It is the sweetest music you will ever hear, and when it is gone it will drive you mad with sorrow.

4. Gravity will begin to shift

The longer the Microsoft Man is in your house, the more the forces of gravity will de-anchor themselves from your home. this can come as a shock at first, but like all of the Microsoft Man's gifts, you will soon adjust to it. You may find that the walls become floors, and the floors become ceilings. your basement may become your attic. All of this will change, but this is the will of the Microsoft Man and it is just and holy. The Microsoft Man's will is not ours to divine, but his and his alone.

5. Time and Space will collapse into themselves.

The laws of time and space are mere playthings of the Microsoft Man. All becomes relative when He enters into your home. Hours can become mere seconds, days become years. all of man's methods of measuring the minutes are ultimately meaningless. Space too, becomes a laughable concept. Hallways can stretch infinitely into nothingness, as doors lead endlessly into other doors. All Euclidean geometric constraints become putty in the hands of Microsoft Man.

1. When course schedules are released and you have a conflict between two required classes.

Bonus points if it is more than two.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

For many undergraduates across the nation, the home stretch has begun. Only one more semester remains in our undergraduate career. Oh, the places we will go! For the majority of college seniors, this is simultaneously the best and worst year out of the past four and here’s why.

1. The classes you are taking are actually difficult.

A schedule full of easy pottery throwing and film courses is merely a myth on the average campus. With all of those prerequisites for the upper-level courses and the never-ending battle you fight each year during registration for limited class seats, senior year brings with it the ability to register for the final courses you need to fulfill your major. Yet, these are not the easy entry level courses. These are the comprehensive, end of major, capstone courses designed to apply the knowledge from all your previous courses, usually in the form of an extensive research paper or engaged learning project. The upside is you actually probably really enjoy these classes but alas there is no room for slackers here.
