    Crazy university stories!!
    Okay, so it's that time of year again where people are starting university and after reading a few threads on here, I can see that a lot of people are quite nervous about making friends, Freshers Week, etc. So to help those guys and girls look forward to it even more, everyone should post their wildest, craziest and downright weird stories from their time at uni here It would also be fun to read for the rest of us who are already at uni or aren't going

    I'll start.

    A housemate bought a gecko on impulse. Pets aren't allowed and it ended up costing him £150 for tank and equipment. Landlord never found out.

    Also, watching one of my long-haired housemates whip his hair back and forth to Willow Smith. He was subsequently thrown out of the club. Funniest thing ever.

    Take it away!

    Fresher week cross dressing night for one of the three colleges that had exclusive access to one of the clubs that night.
    27 separate occasions people genuinely thought I was female. My housemate said he almost hit on me twice. On the bus back I generally kept quiet till towards the end where I said something and the girl sitting opposite me screaming because she thought I was a girl the whole time.

    I also got thrown into a pond just after winter.

    Had a ridiculously drunken night out. One person was fairly sober so remembered it. The other 4 of us passed out in a club.. passed out on the way home, twice, too. Took us 4 hours to do a 15 minute walk. Woke up the next gafternoon.. in each others shirts (but the rest was ours).. with all our mattresses in our flats living room space .. with black ops on the xbox (with a **** score lol) and with a sofa, a traffic cone, a for sale sign, a trolley, two plants , three bra's (bra's weren't from people staying over) and some random dude from a flat downstairs in our flat.

    We went out that night purposely trying to do a 'Hangover' night, it worked.

    Not really had any other crazy nights, all other stories i could tell are fairly normal drunken stories that many people will have.

    Quiet night in as coursework submission was the next day, obviously facebook is on in the background. One of my flat mates pops up on chat saying "I'm really scared, there's some strange noises coming from outside our door.. can you come check it out?" So I got out and opened the door. Turns out it was one of our other flatmates, half conscious and talking to the door.

    Mine would be the usual affairs, but some things warrant a mention:

    I was so drunk once, no memory of the night before, I was told the next morning that at one point I thought I was part of the Dharma Initiative and was running around saying that we need to go back in time and save the world. I did love Lost.

    Other incidents include running around a night club pretending my phone was a gun, shooting bouncers. :facepalm2:

    We were playing corridor cricket with an exercise ball when someone got over confident and hit it into the roof ( ground floor flat ). The tiles on the ceiling were like polystyrene and popped in and out. Well when the ball hit the tile a pair of boxers fell out ... God knows how they got there or how long they'd been there haha

    Having a flat party of ~50 people which somehow digressed to a broccoli fight.. broccoli in hair, broccoli up nose, and a hell of a lot of broccoli in the carpet.

    Me and my bf getting suitably plastered on cheap ass wine to, at the fine hour 7am, decide it would be a good idea to drag his mattress out in to the corridor and do you-know-what.. in the corridor.. and then I woke up for work an hour later. Smashing night.

    Watching my friend get off her tits on ketamine, proceed to show her tits to some poor 15 year old boy on chat roulette, and then made a valiant effort at walking up a wall.


    neg rep? haters gonna hate etc

    Re: Crazy university stories!!
    Day 1 of uni. Had just enjoyed a meal with the people living on my staircase. We go off to get ready for a party. I go to open the door to my room and the doorknob falls out into my hand in its entirety. After several tries I come to the conclusion that the door no longer locks properly without a doorknob and gets severely stuck when opening it, so I have to sit there with a chair propping my door open for the rest of the night waiting for the porters to come fix it while everyone else goes off to party.

    To make it worse, about 10 minutes later a fuse blew and the lights in my room and the room next door turned off so I literally spent my first night sitting in almost total darkness all alone.

    One night I had been drinking heavily all evening, felt drunk but fine. Went to the toilet and as I returned to my seat I felt really weird and collapsed a few moments later, and two of my mates held me up as we walked home. The room was spinning and I couldn't lie still and I threw up in my bin with a small amount hitting the bedsheets (you have to understand I was too dizzy to get to the toilet ). However, I was so violently sick that I woke up the following day feeling absolutely perfect like it had never happened; no hangover and I felt refreshed and really good :awesome: (My friends to this day think it was likely a spiked drink - that has never happened before or since even when I had drunk way more than that)

    Another time, I went out to some union event with a friend and we ended up playing beer pong. That ended pretty badly. We ended up back in his room in halls and I can remember leaving his room pretty much immediately and rushing back to mine because I felt so ill, but he's adamant we played through a whole season of WWE Warzone on the PS2 :rofl: (we had been playing it sober in the days beforehand) before I left although he didn't have the save file to prove it. That is one of the very few nights out where I genuinely can't form an exact picture of what I got up to

    Aside from lots of irresponsible drinking, and the night when my housemate thought I'd been murdered (:teehee:), these are the more salient of my drink-addled memories

    A few of my flat mates and I stayed up til like 5am finishing an essay. We didn't then want to just go to sleep, we wanted to celebrate. We went to the 24h cost cutters and bought a huge ass selection of alcohol. We drank and drank until 8. One of my flatmates had got destroyed, I was wasted and another was drunkish. Our kitchen contained: a broken chair, upturned table, a plate of spagetti (on the floor), a bottle of whiskey filled up with piss, myself passed out on a chair in the corner, other assortments of food everywhere and ketchup on the ceiling, walls and floor. There was sick in two of the showers and a broken glass in the hallway.

    My one flat mate was naked in his room in the fetal position vomiting into his bin and I was being sick out of my window waiving at people going to lectures. I then thought it would be a great idea to go to a seminar (with only 8 people in the room) just to get my attendance mark. I stopped to be sick outside the building (at 8.45am) and say hello to people before going in. I then spent the rest of the time shouting, and trying to explain I had no idea what was going on because I'd just spent the entire night writing this essay. I then continued to explain I was here for my attendence mark in a jolly mashed way. I drew a dragon on my question sheet and wrote I HAVE NO IDEA and a sad face in horrific writing. I was pretending to take down notes throughout the session by scribbling on a peice of paper everyone could blatently see and stank of alcohol.

    Afterwards I passed out face down fully clothed complete with my bag on my back in the coffee room on a sofa. Remained there for about 6 hours and woke up at 3. Went and printed off my essay and went to apologise to my tutor. Genuinly thought I might get kicked out of med school at this point. The tutor was fine about it and just told me to go take a shower and that I had let myself down, etc. Really top bloke actually. Managed to get away with it. Get back to halls, earlier flatmate that was crying and vomiting is still drunk.

    All in all, an excellent night (morning). I still have a scan and the original copy of my answer sheet as a souvenir.

    This other time my alarm clock woke me up so I was sick over it in an attempt to turn it off. I woke up with an alarm clock next to my bed covered in vomit

    EDIT: I attached the SAQs below :P

    I heard that one guy went to uni and DIDN'T get laid!

    Edit: Eughh just seen this again. I have that same horrible feeling I get when I see passive-aggressive song lyrics I posted on facebook when I was 13.

    I posted it in the medic forum somewhere. I'll dig it out if people really want to see it.

    Re: Crazy university stories!!
    In London and getting pretty drunk round Kings X area, forever alone and starting to feel horny. Got stopped by this girl as I was walking (weaving) to the next pub and she offered me sex for £20. Told her I only had a tenner, she made a face but must have been desperate as she nodded ok. Led me into this dark lane like a garage for taxis or something and started sucking me off, got me hard and turned round, hands on knees, knickers pulled to one side. No condom btw.

    Just as I was trying to slip it in (insert comma here) some huge bald black guy with a beard appears at the end of the lane and starts walking in towards us. I instantly lose said erection and am thinking, 'Here we go!' Wondering if I have the sobriety to kick him in the balls and leg it before my blood is all over the deck.

    We stop, she tells me it's ok he's a friend. I'm not really reassured but he just tries to score some dope of her. And he nods a polite greeting to me like there's absolutely nothing strange about the situation.. Cut a long story short we end up at his flat, he takes the tenner to get some grass and the girl and I have sex. He comes back and we all smoke a joint with the stuff he got from my tenner. I've often wondered if she ever managed to make any money.
