We’ve come to realize that in university there are many things that you may want to skip, from early morning lectures to long lineups at the campus Tim Hortons… but one thing you wouldn’t want to miss was this week’s show! While your two favourite DJ’S are still in recovery mode from the Laurier Plague, we still managed to pull through with more entertainment to get you ready for another month!!!
Horoscopes a Hoax?
DJ Nova and I realized that we’re both Aries, with our birthdays only being a day apart. Where I enjoy checking up to see what my horoscope says once in a while, I don’t believe that they define a person based on their birth. DJ Nova tried to convince me that horoscopes are legit… I just wasn’t buying it. Fortune cookies, fortune tellers and horoscopes may just be the biggest scams that have set face on the earth, the way I see it they are simple messages that can define anyone based on the generalization of any human’s personality. “More than likely there was at least one time in your life in which you felt like the ugly duckling – Taurus”… well DUH, we aren’t all born with the perfect jawline of Zayn Malik or the lips of Kylie Jenner! But hey, if you believe in this stuff, you enjoy it, and it works out for you then I can’t complain. All I know is that horoscopes and fortune cookies don’t work for me after the last time I checked and got “You lack inspiration and are critical of the things that others may enjoy in life”, I KNOW! IT’S ABSURD!!!
Breaking your Ex vs. The Gym
You’ve heard of breaking up with an ex but have you heard about breaking up with your gym?
*Fans of Friends*
For those of you that aren’t hardcore Friends fans, or claim to be but perhaps missed the episode (If this is you then I’m sorry, but are you even a true fan?), it turns out that breaking up with your gym isn’t as uncommon as one might think. After DJ Nova mentioned that her New Year’s resolution of going to the gym only started this month, this man’s resolution only just ended! Without having the heart to end his gym membership in person, check out the hilarious letter that one man sent his gym to cancel his membership:
Guy Pens Heartfelt And Hilarious ‘Break Up’ Letter To Gym That Won’t Accept Cancellation Over Phone
From this we wondered if breaking up through text is really that bad… and when I say “we” I mean myself! Fortunately, DJ Nova explained the unwritten rules about breaking up with someone, and the only time that it is acceptable for it to be through text. If someone When someone breaks up with me, I can’t say that I would rather it be in person and have to go through the awkwardness of having to react to that kind of news, just a heads up to my future exes!
Are All Skittles the Same Flavor?!?
We tested a new theory on the show… two in fact! A recent scientific study came out stating that all skittles are actually the same flavor and that our mind triggers our taste buds into defining a certain flavor based on how we associate the color of a candy with its flavor. We’ll let you try this one at home, but from our analysis these scientists may be onto something. We not only tried it out with skittles but also with Swedish Fish and the results were surprising, half the time we couldn’t even get the flavor right, even though they did taste different from each other.
