The World is Ending. FLUNK DAY TOMORROW

Tuesday, Febuary 28th

11:34PM - a covered semi trailer is spotted in the WalMart parking lot. We all know what hides here. Could they be setting up this early on in the game? Is this even that early on in the game???

11:35PM - picture confirmation of covered trailer #CONFIRMED

Friday, March 3rd

11:34PM - Cowboy Hat Man spotted at Cherry Street WITHOUT HIS COYBOY HAT, but a BASEBALL HAT. THIS COULD BE HUGE.

Wednesday, March 8th

Alumnus (alumnum?) Matt Sugai kicked out of midnight breakfast. Claims that they are not a student. Smells like a cover up.. <----very interesting. Could it be that Matt knows something about flunk day that we don't know? and that Knox doesn't want getting out???

Tuesday, March 14th

~5:00 PM - [1] The Muddy Pit makes us all aware of their slumber through their Facebook page. Is this a hint? Are there secrets lurking beneath the recent snowfall and within the soil?

11:52 PM - #CONFIRMED THERE ARE SECRETS IN THE EARTH. WE MUST DIG TO UNCOVER THEM. AWAKEN THE PIT. MOISTEN THE LOAM. (FOREVER) LEAVE YOUR MAYONNAISE AT HOME.

9:05 PM Teresa Amott spotted walking home down prairie street. Too dark to tell, but it looked like she was leaving behind some kind of slimy footprints... is it molting season yet????

Thursday, March 16th

1:27 AM Scott Roberts (landlord of the yellows) seen carrying canned food, bottled water, a first aid kit and other supplies to the basement of the yellows. Was also wearing a tool belt. It is presumed that this is where he will bunker down and take shelter until flunk day is over.

Monday, March 20th

This was the first day of spring. Theresa Amott was spotted at 7:35am in the art bowl, sitting in an inner tube, buck naked, drinking from a bottle of Jager with a crazy straw, and wondering where everyone was. Sources say she stumbled towards the lawn at approximately 7:51 am, proclaiming that she was going to "ride" the "mechanical bull." Squirrels were seen fleeing in terror. We cannot confirm if March 20 was actually Flunk Day or not, but Amott's actions speak for themselves.

Tuesday, March 21st

8:37 PM - On a grocery trip to Walmart, it was found that the alcohol section was revamped over break. Everyone (including Walmart) knows this is where students stock up cheap and quick for the fateful day.

PICTURE CONFIRMATION [2] THE HARD LIQUOR SECTION IS NOW BEHIND CHECKOUT 9. I REPEAT, CHECKOUT 9. IS THIS A HINT??? <-------- IT IS ABSOLUTELY RELATED TO THE FLUNK THERE IS NO DENYING THAT.

Thursday, March 23rd

KEG IN THE QUADS!

Flunk Day Theme is Pirates of the Flunk --> CONFIRMED #aflunkinlifeforme #arrrryouready??????? <-------- #seaflunk if you will???


REPORTS RECEIVED of a recruiting email for the Marines sent out to certain students AT THE EXACT MOMENT that the 2017 flunk day theme — Pirates of the Flunk — was announced. Coincidence???? Is this some kind of seafaring warrior conspiracy, and if so, how high up does it go???? Is the wide, wide ocean itself trying to tell us something??? Is Teresa Amott possessed by the ghost of Edward Teach? WAS BLACKBEARD A LIZARD PERSON?????????? Stay tuned, kids: this could be huge. <-------- CONFIRMED [3] GET OUT YOUR OVALTINE DECODER RINGS, COMRADES

Monday, March 27th

Last year we were gifted with a late flunk day. Will this year be the opposite with an early flunk? Of course it will remember the first rule of the flunk. flunk day is always tomorrow!!

4:53PM - Mark Holmes encourages his Open Studio students to 'dig' through their notes from past years to create an artist statement. Does he want us to dig something else??? Only time will tell.

7:21PM Two members of TKS overheard in founders planning the flunk day issue!???!! Seems kind of soon doesn't it???? <---what will tks DIG up this year??

3:55PM - Members of videocorp seen taking a strange shot of Ben Smolinski looking confused and taking his shirt off in the sculpture studio in The Whitcomb Art Center. When asked what this strange video was about, they were bound to resist giving an answer. Tristian Yi, flunk day planner??? Joe Connors, internal conspiracist??? We need more information to confirm!!!!!!

Friday, March 31st

Word has it there will be a ceremonial ground breaking tonight.

Monday, April 3rd

This will be the day. This is it.

PREDICT FLUNK DAY STARTS TODAY. 11:30am to 12:30pm, 5:30 to 6:30pm in front on the Caf. Come through and earn prizes!

^^^ umm... flunk day planners definitely on the wikifire right here trying to throw us off course!! <----- confirmed

Tuesday, April 4th

11:54AM - 3 cuties seen wielding a single shovel in a very specific formation through the quads.....we know what's coming.

Wednesday, April 5th

12:00AM - The mud pit gasps their first, glorious breath of the season.

Thursday, April 6th

Andrew Salemi sends out email inviting students for free ice cream and board games. Obviously overflow from Flunk Day supplies. Possibly the first ever Flunk Day on a Friday and an Admitted Students Day.

Sunday, April 9th

SPOTTED: Pepsi stand east of Gizmo patio. Leftover from Prairie Fire Fest- keeping it out for an early flunk???

Trash cans still lining area outside Gizmo patio. Easier access for an early flunk.

Monday, April 10th

12:37AM - Still no word on who's a friar yet... Is Flunk Day even happening this year??? Who is a planner??? HOW DO WE NOT KNOW THIS INFORMATION YET???????????

I GOT A FACULTY EMAIL that talks about organizing the soft ball team. I say two weeks tops. They don't need more time than that to organize. A reminder email will be sent out the day of/before. I will get this one too!!! <---- god bless this person

Coms Office Releases THIS ARTICLE ABOUT PREDICTING FLUNK DAY https://www.knox.edu/news/a-pocket-guide-to-predicting-flunk-day -----> They seem a little TOO insistent that they don't know when it is. I think they know.

!!!! THIS COULD BE HUGGEEEEEEEE! Also check out Peter Bailey's prediction ......

Tuesday, April 11th

Where is the "flunk day is a privilege" email??? Deb Southern wyd

Wednesday, April 12th

Williston Hall seems to be awfully loud tonight. Do the quiet ones know something?

Sam Duffy changed her profile picture to a Flunk Day throwback. She's on the inside... trust me.

Looks like the planners are going in for a late flunk again this year:

Evidence: 

1. No Flunk Day email has been sent out yet. NONE. NADA. The email is sent out pretty early in the term

2. Do any seniors know if they are friars yet? NO scares in the quads (yet! wait for it, Freshies)

3. The mud pit is DRY, even though I heard that some Sig Chi and SNu had top secret agenda paperwork piling up in their basements regarding some flunkin' important matters

4. Grass has not been mowed....Can someone find out when the grass is scheduled to be mowed next?

5. Flunk Day T-shirts are not sold yet (Did UB forget that we are not stupid and that FLUNK is to happen few weeks after they start selling the t-shirts???)

Flunk Spirit *R.I.P.*

  • ALL around campus there is a shortage of drunk people. Wake up and take a shot ya tokers, the Flunk might be closer than you think.*

Thursday, April 13th

Direct source from planners, it's today🍆🍆🍆 ---> CONFIRMED

6:46 PM Fiji blasting music and playing basketball. Have their Alumni told them the date of the flunk? <----Conspiracy

"If there is love in your heart and your mind, you will feel like flunk day all the time." -Anonymous

Sunday, April 16th

[11:00pm] Y'ALL we all need to STEP IT UP and start hyping up the FLUNK!!!! I can't sustain the wiki fire by myself.....flunk day is about TEAMWORK! LET'S DO THIS. That being said it's definitely tomorrow <--- CONFIRMED < ----------- COULD. NOT. AGREE. MORE. IT IS SO DEAD IM EMBARRASSED

Monday, April 17th

The Freshman were all given Flunk Day Survival Info from their RAs before last Monday. Any day now is officially open to being Flunk Day. Let the predictions flow like a ship at sea. AAAAARRRRRGH! IT's GAME ON! ---> CONFIRMED. [2:10 pm] Talked to a freshman in my class and she said her suite had the Flunk Day talk last week. Another freshman told me they had theirs two weekends ago.

Admitted Students Days are over. Where's the email, Deb???

[9:18 pm] Email from Andrew Salemi announcing that Flunk Day shirts can be ordered online NOW! (what happened to tabling ppl? truly a lost art) This is not a drill.

Tuesday, April 18th

Taiko Drum circle was moved from this day to sunday.....could it be?

Merchandise email is out!!! the time is near.... any day now

also...who are our planners???? would help bunches <-- they are shadows in the dark a.k.a we will never know

[10:56 am] Deb Southern has sent the email. Flunk season has begun. <-----CONFIRMED!

TAKE A SHOT OF TEQUILA OUR DEB BABE HAS SENT THE FLUNK EMAIL!

Wednesday, April 19th

Probably not this day seeing as it is the Almost There Fair for Seniors to pick up their caps and gowns (and also donate money to the school).

It's B.G.'s birthday...could the planners be trying to combine to drunk catastrophe's into one day to minimize damage? Seems likely.

[3:10 pm] SPOTTED: TKS editors Rachel Landman and Erika Riley carrying newspapers down hallway of Seymour. They went in the campus life office. Could be the Flunk Day issue???<----FALSE TKS does NOT know when flunk day is, they just make an issue earlier in the term so they can print it on the day when they find out just like everyone else. <-------True only 4 people know when Flunk day is: New campus life person that has replaced Travis, 2 flunk day planners from UB, and one school person (T Amott) <---- False. Many more than 4 people know. Admissions so they don't schedule tours. Deb Southern and other people in OSD. Campus Safety so they can be prepares to try (ha!) to stop the mud pit. The administration is ripe with information. <----True. TKS isn't the admin, but they definitely print in advance and give the issue to Campus Life.

Thursday, April 20th

Does Flunk Day really exist? Does ANYTHING really exist?

Could this be the first 4/20 Flunk? Rumor has it one of the secret planners is a hard core stoner...

a 4/20 flunk day could be huge!! there are mostly club meetings but no big events so it is a big possibility. at least it would be a good day to scare the freshies for the first time!

Does anyone know if they're a friar yet??!?!?! NO ONE KNOWS ANYTHING!!!

Lots of people posting on facebook today about Smashmouth. Could this finally be our year?

Friday, April 21st

Everyone knows it's an established rule that flunk day is never on a Friday, but riddle me this- do pirates follow the rules?

You could take photos with fruit in the caf today. Basically flunk day.

Sunday, April 23

Vlad spotted on campus.

Vlad was also spotted drinking heavily on Saturday night. His direct quotes "let the flunk season begin!!!!" *takes a shot*

SPOTTED ON CAMPUS MOVING STUFF BACK AND FORTH!!! <---- What kind of stuff? Details, PLEASE! <----- A bag full of human skulls and 5 torches!!!

FLUNK DAY TOMORROW CONFIRMED!! Koreen is at the Gizmo, after hours!!

The Pirates beat the Yankees today, so we're DEFINITELY flunking tomorrow

MAIL ROOM LIGHTS ARE ON!!!!! <------time stamp? (Smh, freshman?) Mailroom lights are always on unless you are speaking of the office part inside

Monday, April 24th

Today there's a NYTimes journalist coming to campus and the new Parke Ethicist-in-Residence thing is happening. Big enough to stop the Flunk? Maybe not. <----- ethicist is here all week as it's a residency, flunk day is still a possibility. <---- and she's an alum, so she's familiar with flunk day! maybe that's why they chose her???

First scare of the season!!!

Janitorial got 6 large boxes of floor cleaner. Prep for post-Flunk clean-up? #Confirmed

People who ordered shirts- have they arrived yet??? PLS RESPOND <--- I haven't heard anything!

There's construction happening on the east side of Old Main and there's a big hole in the ground. Maybe Flunk Day won't happen until that's done? I don't think it's out of the question, but it seems like a bad idea to have a bunch of drunk people running around with that. I'm sure Facilities knows when Flunk Day is.

Members of Union Board have received their shirts at their weekly meeting. We could be flunkin' any day now, all is fair from here on!<-----confirmed

Staff members will get their flunk day shirts on Wednesday? So it couldn't be on Tuesday

10: 55 PM Fijis are shouting. This should be normal behavior except they're shouting "flunk day!!!!" do they know something?

Tuesday, April 25th

T. Amott canceled the fundraising event for Merrit and moved it to next monday -------->>>> confirmed

Previous Flunk Day planner has leaked that THIS IS THE DAY <------ CONFIRMED #COLTRON <------no patience for fake news, pics or it didn't happen

Dean Behling spotted landing a nollie kickflip down down the steps of the gizmo pattio. SHE IS FEELING THE FLUNK <---------- CONFIRMED. SHE ALSO LANDED A VARIAL OFF OF THE ALUMNI HALL FRONT STEPS.

huddled group of freshman overheard muttering about how they "...just wish flunk day would be done already" as they cast wary eyes around looking for snooping seniors, who might wake them up a tad early again, just to fuck with them.

FLUNK DAY APPAREL IS IN

Overheard a librarian explaining Flunk Day to a student worker. She thinks it's going to be an early Flunk.

Everyone knows we've been rooting for a Smashmouth flunk for the past few years. According to the band's website, there are no shows booked between April 22 and May 13. Could it be that they're making a stop in The Burg between shows????????

"All Star" by Smashmouth was playing in the mailroom this morning...sign of the flunk?? Do they know something we don't?

Wednesday, April 26th

FLUNK DAY FRIAR INFO STILL NOT SENT OUT. SURPRISE FLUNK FOR ALL??

Richard Stout has this day marked as Flunk Day on his ECON 110 syllabus. What econ model did he use for his prediction? ⬆️ Same for his Econ 303 syllabus.

HEAR, HEAR MY FELLOW KNOXIES: Evidence shows that this day VERY CLEARLY can be the long awaited, the most drunk, flunk day of the century.

Now, What evidence do I have you might say?

1. T Amott Cancelled her fancy reception for Tuesday, preparing for the Flunk?

2. There is supposed to be a track and field meet in Des Moines, but this IS NOT happening

3. Greek Week has something scheduled for each day of the week, except this one. It is "wear jeans" day. Knowing that Greek week is organized by people in Campus Life, the same offices where our FLUNK DAY is planned DID THEY HINT NOT TO PUT ANY EVENT UP THIS DAY BECAUSE WE'RE FLUNKIN'?

4. It is the day after AnSo Senior Research Draft is due<-------------AnSo professors would reward you for such an effort with flunk, wouldn't they? <------#AnSotheory



"Just saw this at a computer that was left logged in at the library, I logged out but got some good insight, this sorority girl knows her shit" :

5. UB has not gotten their shirts yet, which always happens before the day

6. Two confirmed planners, the UB advisor, and a suspected planner were at Walmart on a SUNDAY/today (cannot be part of normal UB business, therefore 100% Flunk related)

7. The shirts are in but still need to be distributed to people that ordered them. Shirts are likely to be distributed across multiple days (unconfirmed and possibly misunderstood) <-- The can put them in mailboxes day-of

8.Unconfirmed but someone says the purple shirts are not in (for staff day-of) <-----staff members get their shirts on Wednesday? Can someone confirm?

9. Athletic events have been cancelled day-of in the past

10. Weather forecast gives no indication of date because it is decided upon way before and they will not move it at the last minute<---------weather forecast for Wednesday is rainy, easier access to the mudpit?

11. Unlikely to be close to or past May 10th because a current planner caught a lot of shit for it last year

Make of this what you will. The first viable date for Flunk day is this Wednesday.

Coltan Parker's Ass spotted hanging out the shotgun window of a blue subaru impreza as it drove by SMC. The numbers 04 were on his left cheek and 26 on his right. It may be a sign, or simply a deceptive trick. Who's to say?

Friday, April 28th

Flunk Day 2014

Flunk Day 2015

Monday, May 1st

Andrew Salemi looked too calm. Must be a Monday flunk. #confirmed

Flunk Day 2013

Vlad P reportedly cancelled a Skype interview with a very lucrative company for this day, rescheduling it for an earlier date...could he be preparing to not interview while trashed?

Peter Bailey spotted telling AIPEF group that if he could participate in their flunk day predictions he would put $50 dollars on this day...*hint hint*

Not much on the calendar today. THIS COULD BE HUGE!

Tuesday, May 2nd

Callie Rouse's Honor's Defense is today. She says if it's today she'll be posting some aggressive Snapchat stories, to say the least. "I'd be anxious all Flunk Day, that would be terrible."

Wednesday, May 3rd

Rob Smith's ENG-295 syllabus suggests this may be the day of flunk. My bet's on this day...if only it'd happened when we were studying Lynch.

Thursday, May 4th

Sunday, May 7th

Rally's birthday (a member of Alpha Sigma Suck a Dick). A good option, especially since I heard that she has an in with the flunk day planner. Would NOT be the first weekend flunk... if the planners really want to shake things up this is when they would do it.

Monday, May 8th

Not much on the calendar today either...

Tuesday, May 9th

It's gonna be the 9th. Jonathan Powers always says Flunk Day will be May 9th, and Jonathan Powers is never wrong. <---false, he has been wrong for many years in a row now. (Sorry JPow)

Wednesday, May 10th

Flunk Day 2016

Thursday, May 11th

Tuesday, September 19th

It's gotta be on International Talk Like a Pirate Day. And you thought last year's flunk day was late.
