The Dangerous Decision: Duke Versus Yale

The game with no winner.

The Dangerous Decision: Duke Versus Yale
mashable.com

As if the upcoming election didn't leave us with enough difficult decisions to make, the NCAA tournament has provided us with one more... Dook versus Yale. How does one choose between the lesser of two evils? Well, have no fear. I'll help you make your decision right here.

1. Attire. Line them up and check them out. Who can wear the most Polo and pastels? Who has the best pair of Croakies? Who has the cleanest Sperrys? The winner here will manage to best fit their school's colors into a preppy outfit perfect for church on Sunday and brunch with Grandma.

2. Campus. This one is tough because neither can truly win. Take a seat on campus and sight see. Is anyone smiling in either place? Probably not. First to ten students who look like they're actually enjoying themselves wins.

3. Honor. What alumni can throw their alma mater pride in your face the fastest? Which one can boast about their accomplishments and fellow alumni in less than thirty seconds? We know this one is difficult because it involves you talking to them, but I promise, there's no way it won't be quick.

4. Argument. Line 'em up and get 'em started. Put a student from either university on the podium and let them fight it out. The first one to make you grateful that you don't attend their university is the obvious winner.

5. Player comparison. Let's just give it to Yale here. No one likes Grayson Allen, no one ever will. Sorry, Dookies, this one is an L.

The solution: Everyone throw up your prayers to the basketball gods. Let the basketballs deflate and the water be full of posion and let us rally for one thing: No one wants anyone to win this game.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
