random student interview by stephenostrowski

Welcome to the Ran-
dom Student Inter-
view, where the line
between journalistic integ-
rity and personal boundaries
becomes blurred. How was your
Valentine's Day, first of all?
Sweet.
Yeah? What'd you do with your
girlfriend?
Uh I took her out to dinner. And
then ... yeah.
Where did you guys go to din-
ner?
China Gate.
China Gate?
Yeah.
OK. What'd you guys eat?
Some Chinese food.
All right. Like what?
I don't even remember man.
Were you drunk?
Uh, no I wasn't drunk.
Did you black out?
No I just don't remember.
Really?
Yeah, I think it was like chicken
or beef.
Is dinner with your girlfriend
unmemorable, or just like...
I mean it's memorable, but like
I just remember me and her not
like - it's not important what the
food is, it's only important about

the girl.
Oh that's nice.
Yeah.
That's cute. How long have you
guys known each other?
I don't know, like about a year.
Where do you think you'll be
going for future Valentine's Day
dinners?
I don't know. Wherever.
A man ofmany words.
Wherever I want.
So shifting gears a little bit,
what about spring break. What
are your plans?
I'm about to kick it in Ann Arbor.
Really?
Yeah.
No desire to go anywhere else?
It's sweet here.
You like cold, frigid tempera-
tures?
Yeah.
What are you going to do over
break? Hit the books?
Definitely hit the books. School's
number one.
Is it?
Yeah.
What's number two, and what's
number three?
What's number two? Um number
two is my lovely girlfriend, and
number three is for all my homies.

All your homies?
Yeah.
What do you and your homies
stand for?
We stand for scholars, leaders,
athletes and gentlemen.
Scholars, athletes, leaders and
gentlemen?
No, scholars, leaders, athletes,
gentlemen.
SLAG?
Yeah.
Do you guys toss SLAG around?
Like bump fists and it's like
"SLAG"?
No, it's not SLAG. It doesn't like -
it's just like what we stand for.
Is SLAG in the Maize Pages?
Like is this a student organiza-
tion?
No it's just like...
No mass meetings or anything?
No.
I apologize it's getting late. So
what do you think about the
Grammys? I heard Lady Gaga
came out of an egg.
She came out of an egg? I didn't
know that. I can't believe she
came out of an egg.
I can't either!
She's a - I don't even know.
Who did you want to win Best
Album?

Dude I have no idea.
Do you know anything?
I don't even know what the Gram-
mys are.
You don't what the Grammys
are?
No, to be honest.
OK.
I've never heard of them.
Are you at all connected to pop-
ular culture?
Uh no, not too much.
What are you passionate about?
Um ... my school work.
Oh yeah, because of scholars.
It's the first letter in SLAG.
Well it's not SLAG, it's just ... yeah.
OK. Last question. Obama
unveiled a budget - a $3.7 tril-
lion budget - how do you think
the budget will affect Little
Caesars' $5 large pizza promo-
tion?
I think the government fucks us
all. It'll probably be a $10 pizza
because the government fucking
sucks.
OK. You don't think Obama
likes pizza?
Dude, Obama doesn't even like
America.
OK. We'll draw the line there.
