Fratty Pants: B Squad Basketball and Pineapple Bongs

I woke up around 1:00 P.M. today to the sounds of EA Sport's FIFA '08 being played in the room connected to mine, which is my usual Monday/Wednesday routine. But this morning was different because one of my colleagues was cutting up a pineapple. He wasn't making a fruit salad. He made two holes, one near the top and another towards the middle-bottom and tunneled between the two holes. He stuck a piece in the top, not unlike our friend Bob. (seen above) We filled this piece and I hung out with it and FIFA until 3 o'clock class. Because of spoilage issues we decided to eat the fruit afterwards, but plans are underway to craft a new one before our next B Squad Basketball game.
"What is B squad Basketball?" It's a group of kids who play on one of the two house intramural basketball teams and either suck or don't care too much about the outcome. More serious (read:toolbag) kids from other houses get pretty pissed at our general asshole behavior and lack of organization during the games. We have been on the brink of several fights. Last game we played with four guys for the first ten minutes because our fifth was taking a dump. Despite the fact that we are 0-3 and have lost by a combined score of 128-20 we have a great time hacking it up out there and seeing kids get pissed. This is especially true if you hang out with the pineapple before the game. We play again tomorrow night, recap and possible pictures to follow.
