Rick gets marked (and not by Mike)
Oct. 30th, 2006 01:40 amOK, I will not attempt to explain the whole "marked by Mike" thing here, and will skip straight to what happened to Rick.
Rick is some kid from Max who's here nearly all the time - well, specifically, he's Agnes's boyfriend.
Anyway, the other day he fell asleep in the lounge with his shoes on. I don't know if I've explained this before, but the rules here in Tufts are, if you do that, everyone gets to draw on your face. This happened to Michael Toney once last year - he had this giant penis drawn on his face and he had no idea - he went around and everyone was laughing at it and he had no idea what was wrong until he went to the bathroom. A giant 8½×11 photo of it was hung in the lounge and remained up for basically the rest of the year.
What we did to Rick wasn't quite as bad. Antonia wrote "RICK" on his face. I wrote "I am a blister" (don't ask me what I was thinking) on his left cheek. He got a mustache, a goatee, an eye-in-the-pyramid on his forehead, lots of dots on his nose, and a big black area under his right eye. (Before I could put one under his left eye, Antonia insisted this was "enough" and woke him up. Enough? I don't think she understands the idea here.) Unfortunately, Blake (the RA) immediately told him.
Still, the next day (i.e. today) we found the following message on the lounge blackboard:
"That's it, you people suck. I suppose I brought on myself. Still, though: This stuff doesn't wash off easily. -Rick"
