WHAT THE FLUNK ARE THEY DOING?!?!?!?!?<--They do that every year. The mud pit is not sanctioned by KNOX. Of course they are going to try and stop students.<--- correct, but why would they do this now unless the Flunk is close enough where students could not reverse the damage. Which is why i think the flunk is soon. How soon? Tomorrow soon.

4:13PM "Here lies the Post that never was."

4:13PM no one gives a shit about flunk day anymore. this has happened for the past two years, everyone gets hyped up then annoyed so all flunk day they just drink more. this is why no one likes union board, instead of optimizing excitement they ruin it then get all huffy when people bitch about them. <-- You're complaining about THEM ruining the excitement? Look at your own post you whiny hypocrite. I'm annoyed too but its only been two prospective days that haven't turned out. You can't speak for everyone saying that "no one gives a shit anymore," that is far from true. <<-- As much as you think it's your God-given right to have flunk day, an awesome activity that few other college students will ever get to experience, you really have no right to bitch at the Flunk Day Planners. They work their asses off with you in mind. I don't know the intricate details of flunk day planning, or if they have any ability to change a preset date, but I'm pretty sure that they can't change it just because there's nice weather. Yes, it sucks that flunk day wasn't the 30th, but at least we get one. I'd much rather have one when it's raining than none at all. If you would like to further discuss this, please email me. Sincerely, Alyssa Gill. <---- ALL THE KIDS AT KNOX COLLEGE LIKED FLUNK DAY A LOT! BUT THE FLUNK GRINCH WHO MADE THIS POST DID NOT! <- first, it has NOT been only 2 prospective days, there were a few good days last week. im allowed to voice my opinion the same way you are. they missed the flunk day train. \ <--- I'm a first-year and I just really wish they would tell us what day Flunk Day was going to be. I need to know for my studies. <--Well then it wouldn't be FLUNK day would it?  <-- Well well. They missed a few good days. Bro, they plan this stuf literally months and months ahead. April 26th has been the earliest Flunk Day for anyone here. That was like 5 days ago. last year it was May 1st, the year before May 2nd. Get over yourself. When they planned this, they had no idea about the weather, and pretty much every day was a good opportunity. Please, pull that stick out of your ass, and use it to dig the mud pit. Or wait, don't, that'd be gross. But still. Shut up and start drinking. Also, Alyssa Gill, you're my flunking hero. <------ First-year, I felt the same way on my first Flunk Day. Everyone was always telling me how great it was but I had no proof, and I HATED (still hate) the scares. I know everyone keeps telling you this, but just hold on for Flunk Day. I promise it will be worth it! Until then, settle down and know that you will understand the Flunk Day spirit soon enough.

11:11 Call me a no-spirit douche but something is telling me this is the last year the administration will think that the students deserve the privilege of a flunk day. <---Seriously. Everyone is acting like this is something owed to them.<---Agreed. I almost wonder if we aren't on the verge of losing this year's flunk. <---- If they try to take flunk away this year or after, they should look at Coe College's Flunk Day (yes they also have a Flunk Day) where the school provides kegs. The shenanigans we get up to are nothing compared to them. <--- Does that really matter? This is something provided to us by Knox, on their terms, and on their insurance dime as well, along with the cost of cleaning up after everyone's drunk asses. <---- exactly, Plenty of colleges do something similar. I don't know if you know this but logical arguments don't work for everyone. If we give the college a good enough reason to take away the flunk, they will. It won't matter if Monmouth starts handing out free blunts on their "Scott's day", flunk day will be dead for us.<----these people speak the truth. I really wish people would realize how lucky we are to have a school that'll put itself out there (both financially and spiritually) for us to have a good time. this is something that can be gone in a SECOND. <---OK, who invited all you Debbie Downers to the party? Yes, Flunk Day is a privilege, and it is something that can be taken away at any time. But look at the bigger picture right now!  For one thing, everything is payed for. They wouldn't cancel Flunk Day on us now. For another, is the mud pit, which is simultaneously an awesome tradition of Flunk Day and a bit of a hot button topic in relation to Flunk day, really something that they would cancel future Flunk Days over? NO! It's about our conduct on the day. Now stop being sad, and start getting PSYCHED! <-- It's not just a question of this year, but of future years of flunking. Have a fantastic day of flunk, but be a respectful, grateful adult as well. I do hope you have an excellent flunk day, sir.
 
 
11:12 PM (Retrospectively). The Flunk Day Gnomes have seen fit to undermine the naysayers in the hopes of keeping Flunk Spirit alive and well.
 
 
 
Flunk, flunk, flunk flunk. Flunky. Flunk Flunk Flunk Flunk Flunk Flunk. Flunk <----- THIS COULD BE HUGE
 
 
 
^ I think the most important part of the article cited above was the mention of TEA CUP RIDES.
 
 
 
11:29 PM A group of non-Knox students seen wandering around near the sorority houses. Who are they? Why are they here? <--- they are knox students, they are here because this is knox.
 
 
 
11:55 PM Does anyone know what kind of car Kaitlyn drives? Large SUV seen leaving Hamblin parking lot driven by someone who looked eerily like Kaitlyn. <---- dunno her car, but she lives in tompkins, so that could easily have been her
 
 
 
12:00AM Awkward salmon two way on a Unicorn. Tomorrow must be flunk day! <----- CONFIRMED
 
 
 
12:03 AM. Does anyone know if the food has even arrived? I don't think I've seen that on here, and that's pretty crucial. Also, didn't we catch breeze of who the mystery performer was around this time last year? <---- Rick Astley spotted in the Holiday Inn parking lot! Sorry for the shaky footage, but at least I got something on my phone (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ) <--- A poorly disguised Rick Roll to say the least. I'll give it a C for effort.
 
 
 
12:15 AM something just heard outside Tompkins about 5:30. Perhaps for friar summons? <--- although that is a known habitat for seniors, it is far to early for such shenanigans.  
 
 
 
less whining about the mud pit and more evidence! Come on people, '''THE TIME IS NIGH'''!!!
 
 
 
I'm not saying it isn't Flunk day. But it isn't flunk day. <------ Factually false, for any true scholar of the Flunk sciences knows that Flunk day always exists tomorrow until it doesn't, but now is not tomorrow. <----CONFIRMED
 
 
 
I've heard from student caf workers that the shipment has indeed arrived and that it is being "prepared" as we speak. <----PROOF! WE NEED PROOF! SOMEONE CHECK TO SEE IF THE LIGHTS IN THE CAF ARE ON! <--- Holy shit, they are!<----Caf workers seem like they got it all going on this year, THIS COULD BE HUGE!!! [[File:S9DSt.jpg]]<----CONFIRMED I"M A CAF STUDENT WORKER AND I"VE SEEN THE FOOD IN THE BASEMENT!!! PREPARE EL DIA DE FLUNK!<----Just saying, they could be specifically turning lights on for this. I work in the mailroom and my boss told me that she has told campus safety to turn the lights on downstairs the past couple of nights...
 
 
 
12:30AM: Prof. Shroyer leaves SMC way too early....Flunk??
 
 
 
12:50 AM - FULL FORCE FLUNK
 
 
 
12:52 AM - Advice given "Excited->Flunk Day is tomorrow-> Wake up->not flunk day-> one day closer to flunk day-> excited-> Repeat as needed until Flunk Day." The cosmos would not deliver such words if Flunk Day were not tomorrow.<---CONFIRMED! <-- Truer words never spoken! Flunk Day is CLEARLY tomorrow, as all the days that so far have not been Flunk Day CLEARLY prove!<<----holy shit I'm a cosmos.
 
 
 
1:02 AM - a tiny clown car just drove down Academy.<---CONFIRMED, Roger was driving and Teresa was packed in the backseat with Flunk Day Friars!!<---They were pursued by a hoard of velociraptors, followed by Xavier Roman riding an ostrich in the back driving the pack while smoke a bong and screaming, "FLUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNKKKKKKKKKKKK" <----UNCONFIRMED ostriches are not indigenous to western Illinois.<---They're an invasive species! Don't you know your environmental science/ecology? <--- ECOLOGY COULD BE HUGE.<---CONFIRMED IT'S EVERYWHERE<----DOUBLE CONFIRMED
 
 
 
1:13 AM Goat spotted in Hamblin 009. Must be FLUNK DAY!!<--PICS OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN<---feeling the flunk<--SOMEONE TELL KELSEY CULLUM
 
 
 
1:15 AM - The Ghosts of Flunks Passed arose from the dead-ass restored praire and advised all the Flunk Day scrooges, "Get Jiggy with it." <----- Booo!
 
 
 
1:18 AM A reliable source reports, "Old MacDonald had a farm." Flunk Day cometh.<---THIS COULD BE HUGE<---ILLINOIS IS FULL OF FARMS. IT IS A SIGN. <--- SIGNS LIKE IN THE MOVIE, SIGNS. WHICH IS ABOUT ALIENS, WHO ARE FROM *SPACE*
 
 
 
 
 
1:20AM : Justin Steele leaves SMC to go to bed. Could it be the flunk?! O.O
 
 
 
1:23 AM Abe Lincoln seen hurrying down South Street trying to conceal suspicious-looking bottle underneath top hat.<---He responds to "Baberaham" if you call out to him.
 
 
 
 
 
1:26 - YOU GUYS IF ITS FLUNK DAY TOMORROW BUT IT'S AFTER MIDNIGHT DOES THAT MEAN FLUNK DAY IS TODAY TOMORROW OR TOMORROW TOMORROW? <-- Flunk Day is always tomorrow.  Even on Flunk Day, Flunk Day is tomorrow.
 
 
 
1:31 AM - "Nice Bike" heard from Sigma Nu porch. Such calls signal an impending FLUNK.
 
 
 
ALL THE TIME I JUST FEEL LIKE THIS LITTLE CRAZY DUDE "SPAAAAACEEE" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xeKMS62GrTI
 
 
 
1:31 AM- Sleep little dumplings, let the day of flunk dance in your dreams. For tomorrow may very well be flunk. The only truth we have is the truth in our gut. Let the gospel of R. Kelly speak to you; and Kells said "My mind's telling me no...but my body, my body is telling me yeah." And thus the following morning the friars awoke the young ones, and all chaos was restored in the flunk kingdom. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uAXxkNaRkp8
 
 
 
1:41 AM- had dream of flunking on the moon.  Must be Flunk Day! Also, lots of Knoxies seen at Duffy's... pre-gaming for the flunk?
 
 
 
The moon is GORGEOUS. Just like a pre-Flunk Day moon would be...
 
 
 
2:09 AM - Wait...Flunk Day theme is space.  Flunk Day is a huge disaster.  When there are disasters in space (or high altitudes) astronauts say "Mayday mayday!"  Today is May 1, otherwise known as May Day, a day of MAY-rry-making! <---This could be HUGE! <--- [http://https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D67kmFzSh_o UNDENIABLE PROOF!]
 
 
 
2:27 I'm so delirious by doing so much homework at this point it has to be Flunk Day... Right?.. RIGHT?
 
 
 
3:00 AM - [http://weknowmemes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/there-it-goes-the-last-fuck-i-give.gif Its about that time...]
 
 
 
Is there any current activity on campus??!! Anyone?! :( it's 3.41am! Where's the flunk action!?
 
 
 
Honestly, I don't care anymore, I have been teased enough. Spring term has been hard enough as it is without a day to catch up on stuff or at least take a break from all this madness. If it isn't today I'm just going to drop out this term, my head is fried and I cant take it anymore. <----It sounds like you need more than a flunk day....:( I really hope you take the time to take care of yourself...your mental well being is more important than an essay/midterms/reading/ect. In the words of Tom Haverford and Donna Meagle, "Treat. Yo. Self!" <3 <---- can I marry you?<---Sorry, I don't believe in getting married for love...only for tax purposes. :P
 
 
 
5:29 AM: The sun is rising...is the flunk rising with it?
 
 
 
5:37AM: I hate everyone on union board right now. <--- Word. <---- Confirmed.
 
 
 
5:43AM: I just heard someone leave from exec....could it have been Andrei?
 
 
 
5:47 AM: Campus safety sitting in a gator parked next to the mud pit. Is he preparing for Flunk Day or the riots that will happen if it's not? <-----THIS SERIOUSLY COULD BE HUUUUUUGEEE!!!! <---pics or it's not happening
 
 
 
5:50 AM: It is seriously too quite...
 
 
 
5:50 Saw Knox photographer strolling outside I-House!!!
 
 
 
5:52 AM: An "Ow ow!!!" cat call was heard coming in the direction from the Hamblin parking lot.<--Followed by students running past the Quickie and down Academy. <---I did hear the sound of running footsteps!!!!
 
 
 
5:58 AM: FLUNK NOISES!!!!!<---False positive.
 
 
 
IS THERE ANYTHING GOING ON IN THE QUADS?
 
  
ITS FUCKING FLUNK DAY!!!!!
