Still haven't found the perfect gift for the Penn man in your life? How about this nifty sweatshirt? It's scholarly without pretension. It's classy, but with the neat alternative vibe of something you might find at Urban Outfitters—and similarly grossly overpriced! This holiday, give the gift that says, "The bookstore was having a 30% off sale...but I shelled out $165 because I love you." Reap your reward. Thank us later.

[Disclaimer: Papyrus is such a joke. So is this post.] Don't get enough djin-djin-djoo in your life? Have a burning desire to belt out an overplayed Top 40 song with no musical accompaniment every time you skip down Locust? Were you just straight up rejected from Atma, Counterparts, Dischord, Full Measure, Off the Beat, Pennchants, Masala, Penn Six, Penny Loafers, Penn Sori, PennYo, Quaker Notes, Shabbatones, and The Inspiration? Well, uh...that sucks, but perhaps your time has finally come.

Did you hear? The Sixers are getting a new mascot! Yeah, for some reason they decided not to bring back their old mascot, this thing that looks like a roid-raged cross between Bugs Bunny and Chuck E. Cheese, for the new season. Can't imagine why. Nevertheless, it's now up to fans to vote for the team's new icon, and we implore you: vote Franklin!

Give it up for Abby, Liddy, and Mary Anne, everybody. Today they rolled out one of the most brilliant political campaign strategies ever: a parody of Justin Timberlake's sexiest, spiciest single promoting daddy's platform and calling out his whack competitors. Sasha and Malia, you two better step up your GAME if you want your dad reelected, little girls. This presidential race ain't child's play anymore. Huntsman daughters are BRINGING IT. Hard. All y'all other Republican candidates got BURNED. It's Huntsman, bitch.

In case you missed it, there was a crazy line at Allegro yesterday. And in case you were wondering why there would ever be a line this long for Allegro, it was for an awesome deal. Two slices for the price of one? No, one whole turkey for the price of none!
The Allegro crew and Councilwoman Jannie Blackwell hosted a charitable giveaway of free turkeys for local families in need. Major props! This is seriously cool. Forget giving thanks that Allegro is there to satiate our 2a.m. drunchies, we're thankful they're always spreading the holiday cheer. See more photos after the jump!
Gobble gobble! Look at all those turkeys.
A Kodak moment with Councilwoman Blackwell

"Amidst all the banking EISs and PE conferences we know what you're thinking: I wish Wharton had its own fashion blog! That's all that is missing." Exactly. Between OCR interviews, six hour group meetings, and naps in the Forum Charger Orb, you're probably left with one thought: "But what about the FASHION???" Your calls have finally been answered.

The only thing worse than being crammed into a high rise elevator for three long minutes is enduring the painfully awkward silence nobody in history has figured out how to overcome. That's why the friendly folks in Rodin have posted tips to help alleviate some of that unsavory tension. These are good starting points, but we suggest adding your own creative tweaks to really help break the ice. Here are some examples:

It's coming. The planets are aligned. The signs are in the stars. Nostradamus spoke of it, "Something...will happen....[on that] day." When the clock strikes 11:11 this Friday, November 11, 2011, millions, nay, billions of people across the globe will drop what they're doing to make the most epic wishes ever. Thanksgiving is just around the corner, so we'll save the being humble and grateful thing until then. Take this opportunity to be selfish and wish for everything you've ever wanted. It may come true. (It probably won't.)

Spotted in a third floor DRL bathroom: could some poor soul have taken up residence for the long haul in the Math, Physics, and Astronomy library and brought their toiletries along with them? Maybe it was planted by the tooth fairy Ashlorette after her talk last night to promote proper dental hygiene. As long as nobody's prepping to seduce their Math 170 TA, we support this cleanliness.

The liquor agents had been tipped and staged the raid, waiting for the students when they arrived around 10p.m. last night. It isn't clear what tip was, but it may have something to do with the fact that a bunch of these kids arrived in a chartered bus. The bar was shut down for the rest of the night.

Football and geezers and face paint, oh my! The planets have aligned and Quakers young, old and somewhere in between will fortuitously cross paths this weekend. See what the stars have in store for you.

Here's yet another PSA from the clever kiddies in Hill. Prediction: the culprit will be Bruno Mars for Halloween, since evidently he'll catch a grenade for you.

The countdown to the sluttiest (best) holiday of the year continues with a delicious Halloween treat from a ghost (spooky!) of UTB past. Check out former ed Carlin Adelson (C '09) and her comedy troupe The Charlies battle the undead in this short featured on Funny or Die. They're so good they managed to be funny...and die.

Move over James Franco, Ashley Hebert is coming to town! Yes, the sisters of Tridelt are bringing the Bachlorette to Penn! Wait, bringing her here? Doesn't she already go here? Or did she graduate? Is she still taking that leave of absence? (Seriously, has anybody figured this out yet?)
