The boot chaser thread the other day made me remember this list that a bunch of the girls in my dorm made and passed around last year. I thought some of you former Quad Queens and CTs/BQs might get a laugh out of it. Maybe ya'll even have some funny ones to add?
You might be a Quad Queen if…
1. There have been weeks in which you’ve had a date every night and never left campus.
2. You ever timed a meal so that you could get out of your dorm and off the Quad before formation started.
3. You ever timed a meal so that you could make it back to the Quad in time to watch formation.
4. You ever checked out the scenery in dorm 7...with the binoculars you had hanging by your window.
5. You don’t even look twice at two guys wearing capes and singing “na-na-na-na-na Batt-fish!!!”
6. For all of September of your freshman year you were woken every weekday morning at 6am by the sound of yelling and marching. After that you found yourself sleeping through it so soundly that you asked Corps guys if they even still had morning formation.
7. You just smile and wink at the guys in camouflage low-crawling through the bushes outside your dorm.
8. You barely even notice when a cannon is fired right outside your window or when there are large groups of boys dancing around the sidewalk wearing nothing but trench coats and combat boots.
9. When you get back to school every August the first thing you and your roommate do? Buy books? No way! You go buy poster board so you can make a sign declaring your affection for a particular outfit/class to put in your window.
10. Whenever one of your girlfriends is telling you about the new guy she met the first question you ask (or the first thing she tells you) is “what outfit is he in?”.
11. You actually want to date a guy that everyone refers to as a “Butt” because it means that he’ll be able to go out on weeknights.
12. You’ve ever heard the Aggie Band playing live...while you were in the shower.
13. You know how most people get annoying songs stuck in their heads? You get annoying outfit hump-its stuck in yours.
i.e. “Spiiiiiiderrrrrr D!!!!”
14. Whenever some one comments on the “new” song the FTAB played at last week’s game you take pride in informing them of the name of the song as well as the first year it was originally played by the Band.
15. You can identify every single class of uniform the Corps wears and tell when a guy is not fully in compliance with the uniform standard.
16. You think “administration” is another word for Corps Staff.
17. You have ever flirted with an ugly guy just so that you wouldn’t have to carry your own laundry a mile back to your dorm. Or you own a little red wagon for that specific purpose.
18. You ever opened your window right before your afternoon nap because the FDT cadence lulls you right to sleep.
19. You don’t think 18 year-old guys scurrying around yelling “AAAAAAAA” with their hands over their heads is even a little bit weird.
20. You’re a Senior and you’ve been down on the track for at least one Yell Practice every single year since you were a Freshman.
21. You know who the new Drum Majors are going to be before the whole band has even found out.
22. You think that March is the beginning of “bikini season” on the Quad.
