BY CURIOUS
Please someone message me I am all bi myself

Over the break, I did absolutely nothing like a good twamp. However, in
the brief periods of non-nothing, I also watched a metric fuck-ton of mov-
ies. One of them was “American Animals,” a film about the true story of
four college students who attempt to pull off the most ambitious heist in
history. If they had been successful, they would have gotten $12 million
from selling the rare books from their library’s special collections section.
However, because they are college students and not career criminals, they
were caught. So I get to thinking. Swem has a special collections room
featuring rare books and manuscripts. Why not learn from the mistakes in
the movie and pull off the perfect heist?
Here’s the plan. Step 1 — we wait until finals week. Why finals week?
The library is open 24/7 and everyone will be too cramming and bullshit- Wanna write for
