Past, Present, or Future, She Ain’t Graduating
COLLEGE & UNIVERSITY, DATE, EDITORS' CHOICE, FUNNY, TIME, USA | RIGHT | OCTOBER 14, 2008
(A mother is worriedly telling me her daughter wants to graduate, but may be past the deadline to apply to do so.)
Mom: “She was planning to graduate early, instead of in the Spring! Now you’re telling me she can’t do that?”
Me: “Well, it’s October already, and there is a lot of preparation involved. She wanted to graduate in January ’09 instead of May?”
Mom: “No, she wants to graduate January ’08!”
Me: “… That’s in the past, ma’am.”
Mom: “Oh, fine! Well, whatever technical time you go by!”
