"Dude, I haven't eaten in an hour" |
And while they say there exists at least 57 varieties of gender (like Heinz Ketchup) they have the audacity of dope to call what they believe 'science.' If we disagree with them and use actual science to make our point, we are science deniers.
At Yale University, a gaggle of graduate students said Tuesday evening that they would be going on a hunger strike to pressure the school administration into granting them union benefits. The hunger strike is being waged in front of University President Peter Salovey's home.
"Yale wants to make us wait and wait and wait . . . until we give up and go away," the eight members of the graduate student union Local 33 announced. "We have committed ourselves to waiting without eating."
"Please pass the mustard."
Yale doctoral students earn a stipend of $30,000 a year, get free health care and have their $40,000 tuition paid in full, says the Yale News, a campus paper with a clever title.
The administration said in a statement they understood the kid's concerns but "strongly [urge] that students not put their health at risk or encourage others to do so."
"Pass the meat, please."
Fortunately for the students, they didn't put their health in peril as they chowed down when the first signs of hunger got them salivating like dogs in a Russian stimulus experiment.
"Do you plan to eat all those fries?"
According to a pamphlet posted by a former Yale student on Twitter, the hunger strike is merely "symbolic" and hunger strikers can leave and chow down whenever they want, lest they die a miserable Third World Country style death.

Yeah, as inspirational as virtual mountain climbing and as real as a Hillary Clinton smile.
