“To do list today: sit on the floor of my room and whimper,” said ‘kritical_stinker’. Another very fitting post read “the concept of having to study (which i hate) to get a job (which i hate even more) to live (which i hate the most).” 117 upvotes. Click here if you resonate with either of these posts.
“Looking at my bio professor and blowing him up with my mind.” I can imagine El from Stranger Things going “you are like papa!”
Okay so you all know and love YikYakception. Now get ready for Beatception, where we feature someone on YikYak posting about Police Beat on YikYak Beat. Once you’ve read that tongue twister, take a gander at this beauty: According to Police Beat, an Orono resident called the police to complain that there were too many people in the UMaine Rec Center Sauna. One YikYak user posted a screenshot of the Beat with the caption “Orono townies are so soft imagine choosing to live in a college town and getting mad and trying to fine college students doing college things like throwing a party past 10pm.” This is like moving to Vermont and complaining that it’s too woke.
A certified sleeper by ‘mokeyinpenobscottree’ read “tj maxx.” Simple and to the point. All red, no bull.
“Blushing and giggling that the Yik Yak Beat called my post sweet.” Blushing and giggling that you are blushing and giggling.
“I rlly think they should play music in ferland like a store.” This only had 17 upvotes, which I assume to not be enough traction to get the ball rolling. Kudos for trying. You know where there actually is music? “40’s swing in hilltop goes hard as f*ck. Gonna dress up like Sherlock Holmes dawg.”
“Not me looking at the roster and comparing star charts… It’s okay according to chat number one on the roster is most compatible.” Please don’t use AI to narrow down your roster, the engineers need that water for showers.
A photo of Duo Mobile asking if you’d like it to remember you had the caption “But it never f*cking does.” Do not even get me started on this. 112 upvotes, should be a billion.

“FAT SQUIRRELS AND SNOW LETS F*CKING GO.” This being the most exciting thing says a lot about living in Orono.
“When i want a job and apply but then i get the job…” Maine Campus applications live now!

More YikYakception, we are so back. “Maine Campus MFs have misspelled multiple words in the crossword every single week without failure. They need to hire a crossword editor, not an opinion editor.” Ouch. Joke’s on them it is the culture editor that makes them. One comment said “So apply to work for the Maine Campus.” Ouch again, but not for us this time. Another user commented “be nice to my king.” Boom.
“Lowkey might be a little trans but I don’t have time to deal with that right now.” Someone commented “THEY/THEM: Off, JOB: On.” This reminds me of a post that said “that part of the grind where you are lowkey asexual.” All too real.
“Obama or SpongeBob?” Easy, Spongebob. Next question.

It’s that point in the semester where I am late to class every single morning without fail. “One of the biggest disappointments in life is thinking you’ve found a parking spot just to see a tiny car in that spot.” For my next trick I make a compact blow up.

“Prof thinks im paying attention in class, whole time im scrolling on the yak [100] [100] [praying hands] [praying hands] [speaking] [speaking].” Me in production every Sunday except it’s actually part of my job.
“Riddle me this liberals. If dyed hair is so bad why are they all so hot.” Who can argue with that?
One of our favs, ‘kritical_stinker’, said “Today I thought about everything too much and almost vomited. Excited to see what tomorrow brings (the same thing). Goodnight guys.” Another user ‘latenightpearl’ commented “I got annoyed today. People are childish! Even though you are a fake stinker I’ll still talk to you like you’re real.” To which ‘kritical_stinker’ responded “I like when people talk to me as if I’m real.” You are so funny, I wish you were real.
