Okay, here at BYU we have probably one of the strictest honor codes of any university in the US. Men can't have beards and women can't go sleeveless. Plus there's the whole no drinking, no drugs, no smoking, no extra piercings, and no premarital sex thing that we seem to be famous for. Creepy molester mustaches are perfect fine. I know, I think that's dumb too. I got to thinking about it and I've come up with a list of things that I strongly feel should be against the honor code... here we go.
(Not in any particular order)
1. Crocs. These shoes are meant for nurses and 2 year olds, not for 21 year olds. I mean, come on! Who thinks that crocs look good? I don't care if they're comfortable, you look like a dumbass.
2. Men in SUPER skinny jeans. Okay, I like skinny jeans, even on guys, but I'm talking about those guys that insist on wearing their girlfriend's jeans. I don't want to walk across campus and see the dimple in your left butt cheek through your jeans. It leaves nothing to the imagination and they look awful. I've heard that wearing such tight pants can reduce sperm count and make it difficult to reproduce. I like to think of this as natural selection. Nature is weeding out the weak.
3. Creeper 'staches. I don't care if that's the cool thing to do right now. You look like you drive around in a white van that says "free candy" on the side of it. Most of the time it's patchy and looks like you're growing mold on your upper lip. It looks bad, dude. It says "forever a virgin" all over it.
4. Mall bangs or Snooki hair. We all had those horrible haircuts when we were in 2nd grade, why relive it?
5. Any article of clothing that was from your k-12 years. I'm talking about those lone peak middle school pants that you magically never grew out of. This includes your letterman's jacket or MHS band t-shirts. They weren't cool back then and they never will be. Sorry, it needed to be said.
6. Talking about getting married when you're 18. Okay, there's a reason why 16 year olds don't typically get married. They lack...uh... maturity. Not just emotional maturity, like physical maturity too. I can't be the only one who thinks that it's wrong to get married when you're 18. I mean you're still a TEENAGER for crying out loud! Just because it worked for Bella and Edward doesn't mean that it will for you.
7. Dropping your Ts. People around here drop their Ts like crazy. Not the normal way. They pronounce mountain like mohw-inns. Cotton like caw-inn. It's horrible.
8. When upperclassmen constantly talk about their freshmen buddies. They compare everything to "freshman year". Live your life, stop comparing it to 4 years ago. It's driving me insane.
9. Comparing every situation to something that happened on your mission. When I'm in history class I don't want to hear a story about how some pigeon took a dump on you while you were talking to someone. It's typically irrelevant and kind of annoying.
10. Being a hipster. Okay, I know you want to be different, but EVERYONE is trying to be a hipster. That creeper 'stache, TOMS, ironic vest, fatty glasses with no prescription, and fedora makes you looks like a tool. If you went to the South, you'd get beaten within an inch of your life. Just saying.
Honorable mention: Utah names. Anything with a Mc or Mac in front of it... Mackenzie, MacCall, etc. Also weird made up names and names of locations for names. Example: Tazmin and Kenya.
