I'm not sure - but they are full of shit I believe so perhaps they 
should be escorted into the complainant's locker? I will feel they will 
be comfortable there until a buyer is found. They should find the spam 
type guidelines paricularly interesting given the the fact they have 
been penned by a extremely confused parrot.

You or yours going up to Uni? Pass it along. It will help.
For a meaningful and rewarding student experience there is only one
central piece of advice which you need to take into consideration. All
other advice is peripheral.

Here it is:

For a course of action to be regarded as successful  three conditions
of which at least one must be satisfied

1)  the activity got you better grades?
2)  got you plenty of free beer?
3)  and got you tight pussy?

Iff 3) is rarely satisfied get out to the pub/club/students union and
work on your social skills. 

In the meantime;

a) keep your helmet well polished 
b) your drinking arm in good condition
c) your course work up to date.

Regarding 3), iff all else fails there is always Fuck a Fresher Week
to look forward to next year.
