Funny SpongeBob Memes We Think Are Forever Classics

SpongeBob memes are everywhere and there’s literally one for any occasion. Many, in fact.

Take for instance the college experience. It sort of makes sense that a show centered around a character who is somehow simultaneously a child and an adult would really speak to college students, and that many a meme would reflect that.

Here are fifteen things we can all relate to, in SpongeBob form.

15. A bad example

Wave goodbye to that GPA, friend.

14. A hefty price to pay

At least the books only cost me a kidney.

13. The final countdown

It’s fine. I can’t feel my soul but it’s fine.

12. Broke life

I’m not sure I can even afford to be sitting in this chair, tbh.

11. Average Joe

What can I say except you’re welcome?

10. Take a chance

Lesson learned: never speak again.

9. Time flies

Seriously that stuff’s more effective than a souped up DeLorean.

8. Side hustle

Yeah I can totally take that shift which I will immediately try to pawn off on someone else!

7. Hide the pain

Even my own face betrays me.

6. Very alarming

Guess I’m not making it to that class. Again.

5. Fat clouds

It’s even a problem underwater, somehow.

4. The great imposter

Look man, I’m just trying to turn in this dang assignment.

3. Financial planning

Taco Bell doesn’t count. Taco Bell never counts.

2. The thought that counts

You can have all of me. Well, some. You have to share.

1. Measure up

Get that logical coherence outta here.

If you’re actually a student right now, I hope you didn’t browse all those instead of doing your actual work. Tick tock, buddy. Get back to it.

What’s the weirdest thing about college in your opinion?

Posts That Show the Difference Between High School Teachers and College Professors

There are many differences between high school and college.

Freedom, living on your own for the first time, the list goes on and on. But one of the major things that is different in that transition is your teachers.

You’re on your own now, baby! No one reminding you of the assignments you need to turn in, no one hassling you about incomplete work, and no one threatening to call your parents.

College professors are a whole different breed and if you don’t get in line with their attitude, you might be left behind…or at least very confused…

Let’s take a look at some funny posts about the difference between high school teachers and college professors.

1. Be thankful…

It didn’t really work out that way, did it?

2. You’re gonna get an earful.

No doubt about that.

3. A totally different story.

Oh, Ms. Johnson, give it a rest.

4. Oh yes, they will!

It gets easier…in some ways.

5. The professor is watching you.

There is no escape! Ever!

6. Talking to the kids on Snapchat.

How’s that for laid back?

7. Speaking the truth.

They are free spirits, that’s for sure.

8. The great trailmix disaster.

Sorry about that…

9. You’re in for a real treat!

I wish I could do it all over again!

10. Some of it is definitely a joke.

You’ll learn all about this!

11. No more taskmasters.

And that’s a good thing!

12. Try to explain that one…

I didn’t think you’d be able to!

13. Let the good times roll!

And let the jokes roll, too!

Did you notice a big difference when you made the leap from high school to college?

High School Teachers and College Professors Are Pretty Different and Here’s the Proof

Did you attend college after you graduated from high school?

If you did, you probably noticed quite a few differences.

It’s all up to YOU now and you won’t have anyone hassling you and reminding you about what’s needed to get the ball rolling…and for it to keep going…unless you give your parents a call…

And you’ll also notice that college professors are LAID BACK. Hey, it’s a much different lifestyle than teaching high school.

Professors pretty much do what they want, when they want, and you need to be along for the ride…because it is a lot of fun once you get the hang of it.

Let’s take a look at some funny tweets about the differences between high school teachers and college professors.

Enjoy!

1. How did that work out?

All that strictness for nothing!

2. Oh yes, they will!

Putting up with all kinds of shenanigans.

3. This guy is out of control!

And that’s a good thing!

4. Just because…

Don’t even worry about it!

5. Get it together!

On second thought…

6. Letting all kinds of stuff slide.

Just keep it sliding!

7. Hahaha. This is good.

As the youths say…

8. You got a little bit of credit.

So it wasn’t all terrible.

9. This is epic.

This prof went the extra mile, for sure.

10. So very true.

Thamks a lot…

11. We all need sleep.

Even professors, ya know?

12. This professor is not messing around.

Did you learn a lesson here?

Those tweets sure do speak the truth.

And now it’s your turn!

Funny Tweets About Answering the Question ‘What’s Your Degree In?’

Let me ask you a question…

“What’s your degree in?”

Don’t you hate that question? It’s bad enough to have answer it when you’re out of school, but when you’re actually in school, it’s followed up with the inevitable,

“So, ummm… what are you gonna do with that?”

Ugh.

It’s best just to avoid those situations if possible. But sometimes you can’t avoid them and you’re stuck… and it leads to awkwardness.

The people who wrote these tweets know what I’m talking about.

1. Don’t ask me.

2. Sure. Just like that.

3. Absolutely not.

4. All kinds of deep thoughts.

5. I didn’t say “mind reader.”

6. I have no clue.

7. The only two options.

8. Get a rich spouse.

9. Not that, sorry.

10. No to both questions.

11. Licking Rocks 101.

12. Gonna be a pot farmer?

13. Put you on the spot.

14. That’s why I chose it!

15. All kinds of pitches.


No thank you. I think it’s best we just ignore those conversations altogether.

By the way…I hate to ask this, but…what’s your degree in?

A High School Senior was Promised a College Scholarship in Kindergarten and is Now Told She Can’t Have It

College affordability haunts parents and kids everywhere, pretty much from the time the little ones are born until they finally (hopefully) graduate with a degree. Costs have soared to the point where many cannot afford it, at least not without taking on obscene loads of student debt – so you can see why being promised scholarship money in kindergarten would have been an enormous relief for a family.

South Florida student Ynette Lopez was promised $3000 a year towards to Florida university of her choice back in 2007, but now that she’s finally getting ready to graduate from high school, the organization is telling only her, not the other 96 kids in her ‘class’, that she hasn’t qualified.

Ynette’s mother, Zondra Aimes says that she’s been in contact with the organization, I Have A Dream, but hasn’t gotten the answers she wanted.

“They stated that each kid would receive $3,000 per year for whatever four-year college or university for Florida only…Now that she’s a high school senior, she has been told that she hasn’t qualified for the tuition fees they promised.”

A post shared by Luke Rosa (@studentsofhistory) on

She was given two reasons: one was that they moved (not out of Florida, just to a different county), and the other was that she “did not keep up with the program.” Zondra claims that she had confirmed with I Have A Dream that their move was ok, and that she checked in with them every year or two to make sure everything was still on track for the scholarship – and up until this year, I Have A Dream kept saying it was.

Legal expert Howard Finkelstein weighed in on the matter.

“Legally, this is really tricky, because the contract is not clear, and there is wiggle room for both sides. The foundation has a strong argument, because after Ynette moved, she did not go to any of their programs, and Zondra said she only contacted them every year or two. But favoring Ynette is that she got great grades, did volunteer work and became the kind of student the scholarship was created for.”

The head of the I Have a Dream Foundation Miami chapter, Stephanie Trump, confirmed that even though 21 kids moved out of the area after kindergarten, Ynette is the only one to be denied the scholarship.

A post shared by Charter Oak FCU (@charteroakfcu) on

The senior is currently applying for scholarships elsewhere, but her mother is considering suing the foundation in small claims court. She would be willing to compromise, but believes her daughter deserves some amount of scholarship because she put in the work.

“She participated in at least six years of it, so $1500 every year instead of $3000? Something, because she did participate.”

It sounds reasonable to me, but I’m no lawyer – we’ll have to keep tabs and find out what happens, but whatever it is, I hope that Ynette has a great college experience and doesn’t let this stop her from the education she’s earned.

Twitter Thread Captures Just How Impossible It Is to Pay off Student Loans

If you’re one of the millions of Americans who has student loan debt, the mere mention of the phrase “student loans” is probably enough to send you into a panic. The loans, which can be the only way for some people to afford higher education, often wind up being incredibly difficult to get pay off – even if you make consistent payments on time for years.

Twitter used Lacy M. Johnson posted a tweet about her own student loan debt situation, and it’s all too relatable.

Other people responded to Lacy’s tweet with their own student loan stories, and let’s just say they’re…bleak.

“Started out owing $120k,” one person wrote. “7 years, never missed a payment. Got it all the way down to $137k!”

Another wrote: “Graduated grad school in 08 with nearly $100k in debt, have paid over $100k since then in interest, still owe $100k.”

“Borrowed $97k, been paying for 13 years. Checked yesterday. I still owe $146k,” yet another wrote.

These stories aren’t exactly surprising — student loan debt is the second-largest type of consumer debt in the country, and it has only continued to grow in recent years as colleges and universities raise tuition much faster than either inflation or wage growth.

Others chimed in to reply to Lacy’s tweet with their experiences of going to college BEFORE it was so expensive. “I cannot imagine doing it in today’s world,” one person wrote.

Student loans are a dark cloud over folks’ heads, and many people expect to die without ever paying off the debt — unless a miracle occurs, like winning the lottery or a new student loan forgiveness policy.

Sigh. At least we’re all in it together…
